I have the Biesemeyer model 78-902 fence on my Unisaw. I noticed today that my fence is not parallel with the blade. Does anyone have a manual? I need to adjust and can't access the Delta site to download the manual. Thanks in advance for your help!

Geoff,
I tried to get on the Delta site and pull down the owner's manual for you on the Biesemeyer model 78-902 but it won't let you get in. I will locate mine in the morning and try to help you out. Terry

Goeff on my Bies there are 2 allen set screws locted on the inside (saw side)of the "T" one on the left side and one on the right side of the fence. Tighten the on on the left will pitch the fence to the right tighten the one on the right will pitch the fence to the left. Hope this helps.

I have a .pdf for the BHS28/40 and 52" fence and can email it if needed. They're all pretty much the same.

Here's how I tuned mine:
First, check and make sure your front guide tube has not shifted, the short section of the 'T' has the plastic glides and they're clean. If it's square to the top (ie: the gap between the rail and the top is the same on the left and right side of the top), get a 3/16" hex wrench and adjust the set screws on the short 'T' section of the fence 1/4 turn at a time, run one side out and the other side in until the fence is slightly sloping to the right of the blade as you're facing the front of the saw. Mine is adjusted ~.003" from the front of the blade to the back of the blade. Give everything a good coat of wax and you should be good to go.
