Using Fence Board
Spacers
The Model T28048 includes two fence board
spacers (see Figure 38) for edge jointing opera-
tions. The spacers allow you to offset the outfeed
fence board by
1
⁄32" or
1
⁄16". The shims slide into
T-slots on the front face of the fence assembly.
Each shim has a
1
⁄32" and
1
⁄16" slot. The deeper
slot gives
1
⁄32" offset and the shallower slot gives
a
1
⁄16" offset.

Adjusting
Fence Boards
The fence assembly on the Model T28048 has
infeed and outfeed fence boards. Each fence
board can be moved sideways up to 2" to increase
or decrease the space between the boards and
the router bit. The fence boards are held to the
fence assembly with low-profile shoulder screws
and knob bolts (see Figure 37). Use the knob
bolts to loosen or tighten the fence boards to the
fence assembly.
