Step 7: Now place the new 80 tooth blade in and replace screws
and bolts making sure everything is tight to prevent the blade from
moving out of place.
Step 1: Start by inserting the connectors into the
underside of the fence. Then connect the other half of the fence to the
connectors.
Step 2: Tighten screws using the allen wrench provided.
Step 3: With tab facing toward the angled bend of the
support leg as shown.
Step 4: Slide one of the support legs on each side
about a third of the way down the fence.
Step 5: Tighten the support legs down but not too
tight as you may have to adjust them later.
Step 6: With the support legs in place now it's time to
level the extension to the bed of the saw.
Step 7: Place extension next to
the bed of the saw.
Step 8: Placesupport levelers under the fence so
that the fence is leveled with the saw.
Step 9: Be sure that the fence is in place and that it is
sitting even on the levelers.
Step 10: Now tighten the screws on the support legs making
sure they are flat and even with the surface you are mounting to.

and
calibrating
the scale:

Step 11: Now your saw and fence are ready to be mounted to
your table/bench.
Step 1: Place saw at a 45 degree angle, lower saw blade and
place 6" gauge against the blade (make sure gauge is also against the
back of the fence). And then carefully lift blade out of the way.
Step 2: Now apply the marking label (sticker) provided
to the back of the fence in line with the back of the gauge. Mark with a
pencil at the end of the 6" gauge.
Step 3: The scale has been pre-scored across the 6" area on
the back. Remove the release paper.
Step 4: Now the scale should be placed so that the 6" mark
on the scale lines up with the pencil mark you made on the label.
Step 5: Slowly remove the rest of the backing paper while
making sure the scale is against the back of the fence and carefully
apply the rest of the scale. Then with a knife cut through the space
between the turntable and the saw bed.
Step 6: Install the stop by sliding it onto the end of the
fence extension and your saw is ready to be
used.
