Assembly and Adjustments

Tools requi red for assemb ly:

Cross Point (Phillips) Screwdriver Hex wrenches – 4mm and 6mm Open End Wrenches – 12mm and 13mm Electric Drill with 3/16” and 5/16” drill bits (for

optional wood extens ion table only)

(4) C-Clamps, 4” to 6” (f or optional wood

extension table only)

Disconnect table saw from

power source before attempting any assembly or adjustment.

Installing Rails

Refer to the exploded view on page 11 for any clarification of part positions.

1. Place the rear rail against the back edge of the table, making sure the notches in t he r ail are properly ori ented. See Figure 3.

2. On the JPS-10TS table saw, insert four M8x35 socket head c ap screws with M8 fl at washers (plus M8 l ock washers on the two inner screws).

Figure 2

(NOTE: These are not to scale)

NOTE: On the JT AS-10 t able sa w, use 5/16 x 1-1/4 socket head cap screws f or the two inner screws.

3. Secure the two outer screws with a flat washer, lock washer and h ex nut behi nd the lip of the saw table. Only finger tighten all nuts and screws.

4. The rear rai l must be parallel to the tabl e top to ensure proper f ence operation. Measure the distance from the rail to the table surface at several poi nts along the table. A sliding c ombination square is handy f or thi s, as shown in Figure 4. All measurements should be the same. There is slight adjustment in the rail holes to allow for achieving par all elism with the table surface.

5. When the rear rail is parallel with the t able surface, securely tighten all screws and nuts along the length of the rail.

6. Place the front rail against the front edge of the table, and insert four M 8x35 socket flat head screws through the count ersunk holes in the rail. Secure the two outer scre ws with a flat washer, lock washer and hex nut behind the li p of the table extensions. See Figure 5.

NOTE: On the JPS- 10TS tabl e saw, the two inner screws will thread into the table top without further need of fasteners. On the JTAS-10 tabl e saw, the t wo inner screws will need flat washer, lock washer and hex nut inside the lip of the table.

Figure 3

Figure 4

7. Mount the table saw control switch to the threaded holes in t he bottom of the front rail using the fast eners that came with the saw. See Figure 6.

NOTE: If you are installing an optional wood extension table, install it before mounting the guide tube. See “Wood Extension Table (Optional)”.

8. Remove the scale from inside the guide tube, and place the black end cap on the guide tube.

9. Ali gn the holes in t he guide tube with those in the front r ail. The edge of the guide tube near which the hol es are positi oned should face toward the table saw. Insert seven M8x16 hex cap screws, lock washers and flat washers. See Figure 5. Finger tighten only until all screws are inserted, then tighten all screws. B e careful not to strip t he holes while tightening.

Figure 5

Figure 6

Wood Extension Table (Optional)

The optional wood extension table (including t he optional r outer table) sits fl ush against the saw table and along the inside of the rails. The extension t able is not bolted t o the saw table; it is bolted only to the rails. The extension table and saw table m ust be aligned properl y so the fence will slide smoothly from one to the other.

The wood extensi on table m ay be provided wit h fasteners – do not use those with this JPSF Fence and Rail system. Instead, use the fasteners that ar e pr ovided with the JP S F Fence and Rails.

1. Place the wood extension table upside down on top of the tabl e saw.

IMPORTANT: If you are using a mobile base under your saw, you may need t o shift the placement of the legs from t hat shown in the following pr oc edur e, so that the legs r est properly upon the mobile base. Check this before proc eeding.

2. Position t he leg bracket s at one end of t he table, as shown in F igure 7. Hold a leg firmly in place whil e driving the screws in u sing a phillips bit i n a power drill.

NOTE: You may wish to f irst mark and predrill the holes. Pre-drill holes with a 3/16” drill bit approx im ately 1/2” deep. Do not drill through the table top or table frame!

Figure 7

3. Attach the other leg to the wood table in the same manner.

4. Place the wood extension tabl e bet ween the rails and up agai nst the saw table, leaving the extension t able r aised just sli ghtl y above the saw table. Cl amp the ext ension table to the front and back rails as shown in Figure

8. Clamping pressure should be enough to secure the table yet allow minor adjustments.

5. Use a rubber mallet to tap the extension table up flush against the saw table. Then tap down the extension table at various points along its edge where it meets the saw table, until it is level with t he saw table. As one part of the edge becom es level with the table, tighten the clamp on that side. Then move to t he other side and repeat , until the full lengt h of the edge is l evel with the saw table. Lay a straight edge across both extension table and saw table to ensure proper leveling.

6. When the wood extension tabl e is properly aligned, dril l holes int o the wood table using the holes in the rails as your guide. See Figure 8.

Figure 8

(You may wish to drill 3/32" pilot holes first. )

Drill 8mm (5/16”) holes i nto the front edge of the table using the holes in the front rail as a guide. Drill 8mm (5/16" ) holes i nto the back edge of the table using the holes in the rear rail as a guide.

7. Install M8 x 35 socket flat head screws through the fr ont rail and secure eac h with a flat washer, lock washer, and hex nut behind the lip of t he wood table (Fi gure 9). Finger tighten only.

8. Install M8 x 35 socket head cap screws and flat washers in t he rear rail , and secure with flat washer, l ock washer and hex nut behi nd the lip of the wood tabl e (Figure 10). Finger tighten only .

9. Re-check the table for alignment, make further adjustments if necessary, then tighten all screws and nuts.

10. Rotate the footpads on the legs until they reach the floor, t hen tighten the hex nuts.

11. Proceed to step 6 on page 5 to assemble the guide rail.

Figure 9

Figure 10

Installing the Fence

1. Thread the handle into the hole on the fence.

2. Lift handle all the way up and place the fence onto the rails. There are three positions of the handle: T he up position for mounting and removing the fence; middle position f or sliding the fence al ong the rails; and the down posi tion for locking t he fence in place. Push the handle down fi rmly when locking the fence in place.

Several adj ustment s are necessary befor e using the fence for ripping wood; f ollow these step s in the order in which they ar e pr esented.

Level with Saw Tabl e

3. Lock the fence on the guide rail.

4. View the f ence from the l eft or right side of the saw. There should be a small space between the table surface and the fence bottom, t o prev ent the fence f rom dragging on the saw table. This space should be equal along the entire length of the fence, as shown in Figure 11.

Figure 11

5. If this space is not equal, unlock the fence and turn it over. Loosen the hex nut under the adjustment foot (Figure 12) and rotate the adjustment foot as needed to raise or lower the rear of the fence. Ti ghten the hex nut and re-position the fence to check the spacing.

Figure 12

6. If the front of the fence needs adjusting, rotate the two nylon adjustment screws an equal amount (see Figur e 13) .

7. Continue these two adjustment methods until the fence- to-table spacing is correct.

Square to Table

8. Place a square on the table and agai nst the side of the fence, as shown in Figure 13. Lock the fence down with the handle. The fence should be 90° to the t able.

9. If the fence is not 90° to the table, unlock the fence and rotate one of the two nylon adjustment screws (clockwise will raise that side of the fence assembly, counterclockwise will lower). Lock the fence and check the adjustment again. Continue to adjust as needed.

Parallel to Miter Slot

10. Check parallelism of the fence by placing the side of the f ence fl ush with the mit er sl ot in the table. Lock the fence down with the handle.

11. If the side of the fence is not parallel with the miter slot, unlock t he fence and lift it off the guide rail. Adjust one of the two set screws (Figur e 14) until the fenc e is parall el to the miter slot along its enti re length when in locked position.

NOTE: You may need to re-adj ust the cl ampi ng pressure aft er aligning the fence.

Clamping Pressure

The fence has been adjusted at the factory to lock securel y when the handle is pushed down.

If adjustm ent is needed, unlock the fence and lift if off the guide rail. Adjust the two set screws (Figure 14) equally until the fence is held securely when the lock handle is pushed down.

Figure 13

Figure 14

Attaching the Scale

Saw must be disconnected

from power source. Important: The fence must be square to the

table and parallel to the miter slot before attaching the scale. Follow all preceding instructions before continuing.

1. Install a blade on the saw, and raise the blade above the tabl e surface. Lift the blade guard and the anti- kickback pawl out of the way.

2. Slide the fence until it just contacts the cutting tips of t he blade (Figure 15). Do not force the fence into the blade.

Figure 15

3. Center the cursor on the screws to allow future adjustment on both sides of the cursor line. See Figure 16. Draw a line on the guide tube even with the cursor line.

4. Remove the fence. Peel off some of the scale backing, and align the zero point of the scale with your mark on the gui de tube. See Figure 17. Position the scale far enough from t he edge so that i t can be read easily through the cursor lens. Continue to peel the backi ng and apply the scale, while keeping the scale as straight as possible along the guide tube.

5. Connect the saw to po wer and make a test cut. Carefully measure the width of the cut board and adjust the f ence cursor to match this measurement.

NOTE: Cursor position should be re-verified after each blade change. Always make test cut s to verify se ttin g s.
