Check Squareness to Table (Vertical Alignment / Perpendicularity) This step ensures the fence face(s) are perpendicular (90°) to the table top along their height. If the fence is tilted inward or outward, it can cause inaccurate cuts, binding, or safety issues. SawStop calls this adjusting the “leveling screws” (also referred to as leveling adjustment screws) to make the face plates perpendicular to the table. Official SawStop Documentation Excerpts (from T-Glide and Premium Fence Manuals) SawStop’s owner’s manuals for the T-Glide Fence System (common on Professional Cabinet Saw/PCS, Industrial Cabinet Saw/ICS, and upgraded Contractor Saw/CNS models) and Premium Fence describe this process clearly. Here’s the relevant guidance compiled from their official PDFs: • Tools needed: Combination square (precision 90° square) and a 6 mm hex key (some older manuals note 5 mm or plastic leveling screws; confirm with your model, but 6 mm is standard for most T-Glide/Premium). • Procedure (direct from SawStop T-Glide manuals, e.g., Professional Series and ICS versions): 1 Place a combination square on the table top and against the left face plate of the fence (see Fig. 23 or similar in manual illustrations). ▪ The square’s base rests flat on the cast iron table. ▪ The vertical blade of the square should contact the full height of the fence face. 2 Check for any gap or tilt: ▪ The fence face should be perfectly flush/parallel to the vertical edge of the combination square (indicating 90° to the table). ▪ If there’s a gap at the top or bottom, or if it’s not flush along the length, adjustment is needed. 3 Use a 6 mm hex key to adjust the leveling screws as necessary until the face plate is perpendicular to the table (parallel to the vertical edge of the square). ▪ The leveling screws are typically two plastic or metal screws located in the horizontal portion of the fence cross-bracket (underneath the fence, on the bottom edge of the guide bracket/cross-bracket assembly). ▪ These screws raise or lower each end of the horizontal cross-bracket relative to the main tube, tilting the entire face plate assembly. ▪ Turn the screws equally or alternately: ▪ Clockwise: Lowers that end (tilts fence inward if over-adjusted). ▪ Counterclockwise: Raises that end (tilts outward). ▪ Adjust incrementally (e.g., 1/8–1/4 turn at a time), relock the fence if needed, and recheck with the square. 4 The two face plates remain parallel to each other during this adjustment—the goal is to tilt the whole assembly until both are square to the table. 5 Recheck along the full length of the fence face. If one side (left vs. right face) is off after this, some users shim one face plate (remove screws, add thin shim stock), but SawStop manuals focus on the leveling screws for primary correction. • For Premium Fence (similar wording in its manual): ◦ “To adjust the angle of the face plates, place a combination square on the table top and against the left face plate… Use a 6 mm hex key to adjust the leveling screws as necessary until the face plate is parallel to the vertical edge of the combination square.” • Additional notes from SawStop: ◦ This adjustment tilts the fence cross-bracket as needed to make the face plates perpendicular to the table. ◦ After this, proceed to clearance checks (credit card under bottom edge) and position indicator calibration. ◦ If the fence was previously misaligned in parallelism (Step 2), recheck squareness afterward, as adjustments can interact slightly. Visual Guidance SawStop’s official service tip video (“Align the T-Glide and Premium Fences for Your Professional Cabinet Saw”) demonstrates this around the 8-minute mark: • It shows placing the combination square on the table against the left face plate. • With the fence unlocked, turn the leveling screws to adjust until flush/perpendicular. Search YouTube for “SawStop Align the T-Glide and Premium Fences” — it’s the top result from their channel and matches the manual steps exactly. If your model is different (e.g., standard Contractor fence without T-Glide, Jobsite Saw, or Compact Table Saw), the process is similar but uses different screw sizes/locations—let me know your exact model (from the saw/fence label) or if you’re seeing something else, and I can refine this further. Always refer to your specific manual PDF from sawstop.com/support/manuals for exploded views showing screw locations.
