Startrite 275 Table saw setup instructions

Sorry, I can't help. Mine is the tube type, as per the instruction manual. I suspect yours is a custom arrangement, although it looks like it is in Startrite green paint. I suggest you search about Biesemeyer fences.

Right on, cheers.

Still hoping someone else has this arrangement and can tell me which bit of metal to poke where to get it to run smoothly

It looks like quite a robust fence though. I'd be keen to get that working if it were mine.

Is the green cast carriage riding directly on the square metal tubing? Maybe there should be some PTFE in there? either spray or thin strips? Does the whole affair lift off easily form the tubing? If so post some shots of the mechanism insides and it might help to diagnose the issue.

Is there a micro adjuster?

I'll take some more photos today and post them. I'm loathe to play with it too much as it works, and more importantly it remains parallel, just don't understand how it works.
