Impressive Set of Parts ... But ...
My fence arrived after many weeks of waiting. The box contained a set of fine looking parts. I have no idea if they are all there, however. NO INSTRUCTIONS. What I received looked very much like what is shown in the photo (above), plus some nice nuts and bolts and handles.
Thanks, Delta. (NOT)
... updated 10/17/06 ... "instructions" arrived about a week and a half after my call to Delta. I received a copy of the instructions for the belt sander (which do not address the fence) and two pages (somewhat) related to the fence.
The fence instructions have a picture of the assembly that is roughly the size of a U.S. commemorative postage stamp, along with an intermeshed parts list for both the fence and the miter gage. (They indicate that 31-691 contains both, but in fairness, the Amazon ad states that only the fence is provided.) No description of how to put the thing together was given. 'Not even a picture of which part goes where.
I did finally manage to assemble the fence, discovering that one of the spring-loaded adjustment levers was broken. The "instructions" were of no use.
I strongly recommend that, if you need a fence, you make your own. There are two handy threaded holes on the side of the belt sander for attachment of your own creation.
ah hindsight.
