Redux: Rip Fence Alignment Question
When I'm wrong, I'm really wrong.
Back in 2009, I was sure I'd found the answer to the rip fence being hard to lock up on both tracks. http://www.bt3central.com/showthread...nce#post438420 In Post #13 I posted pictures of how the clamper should be bent. I was dead wrong. The tail that pushes the rod toward the rear of the saw does have a bend in it. While futzing around with my latest BT3100 acquisition I took a look at the innards of the rip fence mechanism. I'm sure that the saw is factory original as it has only about 2 hours on it. The clamper definitely has a bend in it. This is how it should look.  I apologize to anyone who followed me down the wrong path. J.D.

I missed your post back then but I do appreciate you making note of it here. This little saw does have some well engineered but crazy looking pieces to it!
