Assembly and Calibration
1. Attach Clamping Knob and T-Clip
Remove the hex bolt that secures the protractor head and replace with the large threaded knob included in the hardware pack. The washer on the hex bolt must be used with the threaded knob, Fig. 1. If the Miter slot in your table saw has a T-slot, attach the T-clip to the end of the miter bar as shown in Fig. 2.
2. Adjust the Miter Bar
Loosen the (2) fasteners that secure the fence to the fence-mounting bracket and remove the fence. Adjust the miter bar at each of the (3) expansion mechanism
locations in the miter bar for a good t in your table
saw’s miter slot. Turning the screw clockwise expands the mechanism. You’ll nd (2) of the expansion loca­tions in front of the protractor. Adjust these (2) front
expansion points rst, expanding a little at each of the
locations until the bar slides smoothly, Fig. 3.
Remove the large clamping knob with washer and pivot the protractor head to gain access to the rear expansion point, Fig. 4. After adjustment, replace the washer and large clamping knob.

Attach the fence to the fence mounting bracket and slide the fence to a position that leaves safe clearance between the end of the fence and the blade. Tighten the (2) 1/4-20 fasteners, Fig. 5.

4. Left or Right of Blade
Your new Miter1000HD fence is factory congured
for use to the left of the blade. If you prefer to use your Miter1000HD in the right hand miter slot just follow the steps below.
Loosen the 1/4-20 socket head screw located at the end of the 14” section of the fence, then slide out the 4” section of fence along with the attached extender bar. Move the socket head screw, washer and rectan­gular nut to the hole on the opposite end of the fence. Slide the extender bar assembly into the end of fence, capturing the rectangular nut in the T-slot on the extender bar. The higher numbers on the extender bar scale should be closest to the saw blade. Loosen the (2) socket head fasteners that secure the 4” section of fence and reverse it. Tighten all fasteners, Fig 6. Slide the scale in the top of the fence out and replace with the included reverse reading (0-14”) scale.

Set the protractor head to read 0°, engaging the tooth

head, Fig. 7. Tighten the large clamping knob then tighten the actuator thumbscrew.
Using the supplied 1/8” hex key, loosen the (4) socket head screws that secure the fence-mounting bracket to the protractor head. Unplug your table saw, then use a reliable machinist square to set the fence at 90° to the saw blade, Fig. 8. Tighten the (4) socket head screws.
Loosen socket head screws and adjust

This one time c alibr a t ion pre pares your INCR A Miter1000HD for work in either miter slot. Just remember that the accuracy of the INCRA Miter1000HD at any subsequent setting is dependent upon the accuracy of your initial 90° calibration. Verify this important
calibration with a test cut and ne tune as necessary.
TIP
Squaring the fence to your table saw top
e method used to join the fence-mounting bracket to the protractor head makes it easy to fine-tune the fence perfectly perpendicular to your tabletop. To adjust, loosen the (4) socket head screws that secure the bracket and slide a paper shim between the bracket and the underside of the protractor head. Placing the shim behind the screws will increase the angle. Placing the shim in front of the screws will decrease the angle.
