Default Table saw guide rail

Hi,

I Bought a used table saw and the front guide rail is lightly folded.
Replace the part will cost 120$, so I prefer to try to redress it. It is a
tubular rail like the #8 (422-04-055-0001) on this web site :

The rail is folded at one point but it is not curved.

Is there a special way to do it. Do I have to heat it ?

Your help is always appreciated.

S.B.



Don't try to fix it. You will never get it right and your fence will
not track parallel to the slot/blade.

There should be lots of them out there to buy reasonably because so
many people have upgraded from a Jet Lock to another type of fence.
Before you pay $120 you need to consider that.
