Photocells mounted on the gate posts: if an obstacle appears within the gate opening an infrared beam will break and so the gate stops and reverses. Lock to a manually-operated gate is a solid and durable security device for a manuallyoperated gate, located in the aluminium housing. Tensioning device allows additional levelling to the ground when assembling the gate and correcting the gate position in normal operation. I'll figure out ways around these issues eventually, but for now I'm regretting selling the old fence on eBay.Anti-climb spikes in the form of a steel comb that may be mounted on the top edge of a gate leaf. Maybe I'm being unfair in that this is a used tool, but the wear is so minor that I don't think that matters. But the micro clamp doesn't clamp tight enough to allow moving the weight of the fence. The idea is that you clamp down the micro adjuster part of the head, and move the main head +/- a bit with a thumbwheel. Once clamped it's solid and perfectly aligned, but dialing in to a precise setting is a nightmare.Īlso, there is a micro-adjust feature that simply doesn't work. There's enough slop in the clamp head that the fence skews when you move it. The fence moves when you tighten it down.
The fence is 36" long which hangs off the rear of my 27" cast iron table. The front rail is a big round chrome plated tube, superbly finished. My workshop doesn't have room for the "pro" models, and the 26" "Utility" size is perfect for my needs. I picked up a used Vega 26" in excellent condition from a local guy at a very nice price. Not that it didn't work OK, but people say that a nice fence can transform a machine into something magical. I've been wanting to upgrade the fence on my old Craftsman table saw for a long time.
