OWNER’S MANUAL
Please read this owner’s manual before use and
keep it at hand for reference.
Note: The INCRA TS II system consists of three
packages. One of the packages contains the rails
and another the base mount unit. These two
assemblies are covered fully by this
owner’s manual. The
third package contains
the INCRA Jig Ultra 24.
Read all of this TS II
owner’s manual and pages 2, 3, 6 and 7
of the Ultra 24 owner’s manual.
In just about an hour or so, you are going to be
operating one of the most exciting new tools in
today’s woodshops. Your table saw will undergo
a transformation, and what was once an average
saw will emerge a precision woodworking
machine, one you’ll be proud of for years to
come. So take a few minutes to read over the
safety information and mounting instructions, then

Unplug your table saw and remove the existing fence,
including the front and rear support rails, mounting brackets,
and the blade guard.
Note: The blade guard must be reinstalled after you have finished mounting the INCRA TS II to your table saw.
Attach mounting brackets
Attach (4) mounting brackets to the cast iron surface
of your table saw using the supplied hardware. See Fig. 1.
The Mounting Bracket Hardware Pack contains a variety of
fasteners which will work with most table saws. Use the
largest bolts in the pack that will fit your saw’s existing
mounting holes. If the holes in your table saw are threaded,
use the bolt/washer arrangement shown in Detail 1A. If the
mounting holes are not threaded, use the bolt/washer/nut
arrangement shown in Detail 1B. Position the mounting
brackets 1⁄4" below the table top as shown in Details 1A
and 1B and snug the fasteners to hold the brackets in
place. DO NOT TIGHTEN THE BOLTS AT THIS TIME.
(Discard any remaining fasteners from the Mounting Bracket
Hardware Pack.)
Loosely attach rail bolts
Open the Rail Hardware Pack. Add a 3⁄8" flat washer
to each of (4) 3⁄8–16 x 3⁄4" hex bolts. Place the bolts
through the holes in the mounting brackets and loosely
attach the 3⁄8–16 rectangular nuts. See Fig. 2 above.
Slide rails onto mounting
brackets and tighten bolts
Carefully slide the rails onto the mounting brackets so that
the rectangular nuts are captured in the T-slot on the bottom
of the rail. Fig. 3 shows the correct orientation for the front
and back rails. Approximately center the length of the rails
on your table saw and tighten the mounting bolts that
secure the rails to the brackets.

Important: If you have not already done so, read the operations section of your INCRA Jig Ultra owner’s manual (pages
6 and 7) to familiarize yourself with the clamping and micro
adjust functions of the Ultra before continuing.
Slide Ultra carriage into base
Slide your Ultra’s carriage into the base and position the
fence mounting bracket approximately in line with the two
nearest rail mounting brackets. Lock the carriage in place.
See Fig. 13.
Loosely attach TS II fence
Place a5⁄8" o.d.(gold) washer on each of (2)#10–32 x
1" phillips pan head screws and insert the screws through the
holes in the back of the fence mounting bracket. Loosely
attach the #10–32 rectangular nuts to the screws, then slide
the fence onto the rectangular nuts as shown in Fig. 14.
Position the end of the fence nearest to the operator about
31⁄2" in front of the table’s edge. Do not tighten the fence
mounting screws at this time.
Attach fence glides
Place one of the supplied 3⁄4" x 3" cardboard spacers
under each end of the fence as shown in Fig. 15 and attach
the two fence glides to the rear of the fence using the
1
⁄4 –20 x 1⁄2" socket head cap screws, 1⁄4" washers and
1
⁄4– 20 square nuts. See Detail 15A. The glide with the
black thumbscrew mounts on the operator’s side of the saw.
Align the glides flush with the rails before tightening the fasteners. Remove and save the cardboard spacers.
Tighten fence mounting screws
Unlock the carriage and slide the fence about 15" away
from the blade. Make sure the fence glides are still aligned
flush with the rails, then tighten the two fence mounting
screws.Take care not to raise or lower the fence mounting
bracket as you tighten the screws.
Engage anti-lift rail hooks
Lock the carriage clamp, then turn the black thumbscrew on the front
fence glide counterclockwise to lower the rail hook into the T-slot on the
rail. Look into the T-slot as you lower the hook. When the hook passes
the lip on the T-slot, slide the black thumbscrew toward the table saw to
position the hook under the lip. See Fig. 16. Now turn the thumbscrew
clockwise to raise the hook. The hook can be adjusted to limit fence lift
by turning the thumbscrew clockwise. During cutting operations,
always tighten the thumbscrew in addition to locking the carriage
clamp to provide absolute lockdown of the fence position.
To engage the rear rail hook, walk to the rear of the saw and using a
3
⁄16" hex tool, lower the hook into the T-slot on the rail. Slide the fastener
back to position the hook under the T-slot lip, then turn the fastener clockwise to adjust the lift limit. Allow the fence to lift no more than 1⁄32". It is
not necessary to tighten the rear rail hook before making a cut.

FINAL CALIBRATION
Important: As with any table saw fence,
accurate calibration and alignment require that
the saw blade be aligned parallel to the miter
slots. If you are uncertain about your saw
blade/miter slot alignment, consult your table
saw’s owner’s manual for information on how
to check and set this important alignment.
Calibration – Right Side of
Saw Blade
Align fence parallel to
miter slot and tighten
Ultra’s mounting screws
Unlock the carriage clamp, then slide the
fence up to the nearest miter slot and clamp
in place. Loosen the (4) screws that secure
the Ultra’s base to the base support bars
and align the fence parallel to the miter slot.
See Fig.17. Make sure during this alignment that the fence glides remain flush with
the rails. Retighten the (4) screws. Now
unlock and slide the carriage forward far
enough to allow access to the (2) truss
head screws in the middle of the Ultra’s
base and tighten these in place.
Important: If it becomes necessary to realign
the fence in the future, make sure to loosen all
(6) base mounting screws.
Zero fence to saw blade
With the table saw unplugged, raise the
saw blade about 2" and slide the fence forward until just before it contacts the blade (to
within less than 1⁄32"). Place your Ultra in the
micro adjust mode as described on page 7 of
your Ultra’s owner’s manual and micro adjust
the fence forward until it “kisses” the saw
blade, Fig. 18. Release the micro adjust lever
and lock the carriage in place.
Note: After micro adjusting, re-zero the scale
on the micro adjust knob by rotating the scale
(not the knob) to return to zero under the
micro cursor.
Set scale position
With the Ultra still locked at the “zeroed”
position set above, slide the middle (0"-16")
scale in the scale slot to position 0" under the
hairline cursor. Unlock and move the carriage
to read 16" under the cursor, then lock the
carriage in place. Now slide the shorter
(16"-25") overlapping scale to also read 16"
under the hairline cursor. See Fig 19. Take
care not to move the longer scale when you
slide the shorter, overlapping scale into place.

Fence
Calibration – Left side of saw blade
Moving your TS II to the left side of the blade can be quite
useful, especially on table saws which have a blade tilt to
the right. This feature makes bevel cuts on opposing edges
of a panel safe and easy since the blade tilts away from
rather than toward the fence. The setup is easy.
Note: If your table saw blade tilts to the left, calibration on
the left side of the blade is not necessary. Remove the (4)
dual pilot rectangular nuts and stop positioners slid into the
left end of the rail earlier.
Place Ultra on the rails to the left
of saw blade
Unscrew the (4) base clamping knobs and thread the knobs
into the dual pilot rectangular nuts slid into the left end of
the rails in step 6 on page 5. Disengage the rail hooks from
the T-slots on the rails and lift the Ultra off of the table.
Carry the unit to the left end of your table saw and as you
lower the base mount onto the rails, position the (4) clamping knob assemblies directly under the slots in the base
clamps. Position the rear edge of the base mount assembly
approximately flush with the rail ends and tighten the
clamping knobs on the rear rail only, Fig. 20.
Align fence parallel to miter slot
and tighten clamping knobs and
set screws
Unlock carriage and slide the fence to the miter slot on your
table saw. Align the fence parallel to the miter slot by shifting the base clamp on the front rail. Once the fence is set
parallel to the miter slot, tighten all base clamping knobs.
Then using a 3⁄16" hex tool, tighten the (4) set screws
through the holes located in the base clamps, Fig.21.
Zero fence to left side of saw blade
Unlock the carriage and move the fence to within
less than 1⁄32" from the saw blade. Place the Ultra in
micro adjust mode and micro adjust the fence forward
until it “kisses” the saw blade, Fig. 22. After micro adjusting, release the micro adjust lever and lock the carriage in
place.
Note: Whenever you return the Ultra to operation on the
right side of the blade, remember to micro adjust the fence
back to a zero reading on the micro adjust scale.
Set scale and stop positions
Slide the extra (0"–16") scale in the scale slot and
position the 0” mark under the hairline cursor. Now slide
the remaining (2) stop positioners up to the base clamps
and tighten the hex bolts. Once these stops are set, you’ll
be able to return easily to your left hand setup anytime,
Fig.23.
Important: With right and left calibrations now complete,
reinstall blade guard and all safety equipment removed previously. Raise the saw blade and tilt to 45° to check for
clearance between the blade guard and the rear rail assembly. If the rear rail interferes with the blade guard, you must
follow the instructions set out in the Blade Guard
Adjustments section of this manual.

If you wish to add a 3⁄4" thick table board between the right
hand extension wing of your table saw and the TS II base
mount assembly, begin by making the wooden supports
shown in Fig. 26. For the length of the support, measure
the distance between your extension wing and the base
mount assembly. Loosely attach the fasteners through the
holes in the supports. Remove the base assembly from
your saw, then slide the square nuts into the inside T-slots
on each rail, Detail 26A. Cut a table board to fit and screw
to the supports. The oversize holes in the support should
allow range for positioning the table board flush with your
table saw top.
If, after reinstalling the blade guard and tilting the motor, you
find that the rear rail interferes with the blade guard, you
must add the two remaining rail mounting brackets and split
the rear rail to provide the necessary clearance as shown in
Fig. 24. Begin by removing the base mount assembly.
Loosen the bolts that secure the rear rail to the existing
brackets and slide the rail off. Reinstall the blade guard,
then locate the positions for the additional rail mounting
brackets on either side of the blade guard. The mounting
brackets should be placed as close as possible to the blade
guard, but before drilling the mounting holes, make sure to
check the positions for clearance when the blade is tilted to
45°. When you have found the mounting bracket locations,
drill a 3⁄8" diameter hole in the center of each position. The
center of the hole should be about 11⁄8" below the table top.
Remove blade guard, then using 3⁄8–16 x 11⁄2" hex bolts,
nuts and washers, attach the extra mounting brackets loosely in place. Install the rail bolts as shown in Fig. 2 on page
4, then slide the rear rail back into position. Tighten all rail
mounting bolts, then tighten the two bolts that secure the
brackets to your table saw. Use a hacksaw to make a cut
through he rear rail about halfway between the two additional rail mounting brackets. Loosen the bolts that secure the
rails to the brackets and slide the rails to create an opening
large enough to reinstall the blade guard. See Fig.25.
Again, tilt the blade to 45° to check for clearance. Once the
rail positions are established, sand or file the cut ends of the
rails to remove any sharp edges. Tighten the bolts that
secure the rails, then repeat the alignment and calibrations
starting with Step 4 on page 7.

AUXILIARY FENCE MOUNTING
For some cutting operations, you may wish to add a wooden auxiliary fence to the front face of your TS II fence. A Tslot is provided for mounting the auxiliary fence using
1
⁄4–20 mounting screws, washers, and square nuts. Dr ill
and counterbore your wooden fence to recess the screw
heads and capture the nuts in the T-slot as shown in
Fig.27. Hole centers should be located 13⁄4" from the
bottom edge of the wooden fence. T-slots in the top of the
fence are provided to attach hold downs or other usermade fixtures. Use 1⁄4– 20 fasteners and square nuts for
these T-slots as well.

or blow out any sawdust or debris that may have accumulat-
ed. Use a toothbrush to clean the teeth on the INCRA racks
on both the carriage and the base. A light application of
paste wax to the top of the rails from time to time will keep
the rails smooth and clean.
