up through the holes in the bottom of the fence and
vacuum port. Secure in place with two #10-32 KEPS
nuts (29) (Fig. 8).
3. Place the fence right-side up on a flat surface and
align the counterbored holes in the fence facings
(17) with the slotted holes in the fence. The counter-
bored side of the facings should face OUT (Fig. 9).
4. Attach both fence facings (17) to the front of the fence,
using two 1/4-20 x 1

the guard. Slide a spacer (21) on each bolt so that the
tabs on the spacers fit into the slots on the guard

6. From the front of the fence, insert the carriage bolts
through the holes in the top center of the fence. The
tabs on the spacers will fit into the top channel on the
