Missing set screw on 510 tablesaw fence
Used the table saw fence for the first time couple days ago and when removing the fence noticed a slight rattle when fence was tilted. Took fence apart and found that during use the vibration had dislodged some old mud dauber nests. During reassembly I noticed a threaded hole (shown in picture), so I then found that it accepts the set screws used in many other places. Looked in the owner's manual I have and found it shows a fence that has two threaded holes rather than the one that my fence has for a set screw used to align the fence parallel to the slots in the table. Hoping that the proper length of set screw is still available.

That setscrew is used to MISalign the fence if you're using the flat sanding disk. It's not used at any other time. Don't worry about it!
