What clearance does the saw need from the front of the blade to the front of the plate? Same question for side clearance?

front of the blade to the front of the plate - 1 7/16" right side of the blade to the right side of the plate - 13/16 " left side of blade to left side of plate - 3 "

This is mysterious. Raise the blade up as high as it will go and check with a square that you trust to see if the blade is truly perpendicular to the table. Make sure that the throat plate is not throwing off this check for square. If the blade is square to the table top, then you might try a run-out gauge on the saw's arbor. Excessive run-out is less likely in my opinion and probably wouldn't cause the uneven bases in any event. Finally, make sure you have a backer board behind your work piece.

I had the same saw, I had to re drill and tap the rails and add supports to the side wings. But it was the best money I spent on a fence, I have since moved it to a 1953 delta unisaw. If you can drill and tap buy it and don't look back!

Andrea,You get 3-4 inches in clearance. Very happy with the product. There is a lot of cutting so be prepared.

I got a zero clearance plate and made my on. It works just fine. Helps keep thin cuts in place because theer is virtually no gap.

use your own measurement, not the embossed numbers on the saw for setup. then let the saw do the work, do not push to hard.

Dear MichelSorry, but I cant answer it, because it has to do with the position of this unit between your Machine and the blade.

I'm sorry but no it wont, if you want to zero gap your masters, remove the front cover, make sure the taper lever is pushed forward, if you look at the cutting blade there should be 2 screws, reverse hex/torn screws, those 2 screws need to be loosened, once loosened, you can take a flat head screwdriver and push the flat plate or tab just where the 2 screws rest and push forward til the cutting blade is where as far forward as you want it, be careful not to go as too far, it may cut your clients bad!!!!, once your satisfied with where it's placed tighten down the 2 screws and place front cover back on check over everything, hope that helps, lemme know I'm sorry but no it wont, if you want to zero gap your masters, remove the front cover, make sure the taper lever is pushed forward, if you look at the cutting blade there should be 2 screws, reverse hex/torn screws, those 2 screws need to be loosened, once loosened, you can take a flat head screwdriver and push the flat plate or tab just where the 2 screws rest and push forward til the cutting blade is where as far forward as you want it, be careful not to go as too far, it may cut your clients bad!!!!, once your satisfied with where it's placed tighten down the 2 screws and place front... » Read More I'm sorry but no it wont, if you want to zero gap your masters, remove the front cover, make sure the taper lever is pushed forward, if you look at the cutting blade there should be 2 screws, reverse hex/torn screws, those 2 screws need to be loosened, once loosened, you can take a flat head screwdriver and push the flat plate or tab just where the 2 screws rest and push forward til the cutting blade is where as far forward as you want it, be careful not to go as too far, it may cut your clients bad!!!!, once your satisfied with where it's placed tighten down the 2 screws and place front cover back on check over everything, hope that helps, lemme know « Show Less

The blade does not extend all the way to the edge of the base plate. It is set in 1/16th of an inch from the edge. Hope this helps you!

I Suspect that most saws will fit although on the ones that won't line up I made a adapter plate with 3/4 plywood works fine.

as best as I can measure, the distance from the front face of the fence to the rearmost part of the saw(the end of the slide bars), is 16 3/4" give or take just a hair. sorry for the delay. the wife buried everything in the shop with Christmas decoration boxes.

I'm not sure because it did not fit my saw and it was listed as "fit". It was too short...

Vega's website says you need need holes 8-9" on either side of the blade. Otherwise you will need to drill some holes. I had to drill one hole to make it fit right on my PCB270TS. Wasn't too hard. See more info here: http://vegawoodworking.com/product/table-saw-fence/

I would definitely use a jig to keep your angle correct, but the 3/16 seems very small. Refer to your owners manual for the correct file size, and angle for your saw.

I have the same saw. It is a 14" chain. I have the manual if you need any info from it.

yes. Current clearance on mine is 1.5" (measuring up from slightly raised platform). Note: I have used my blade to cut some zinc, so there is some reduction in blade radius.
