Hello Art,
I think you may have the orientation backward. I bought my Masterlift
about 18 months ago and its adjustement port is at 6 O'Clock and
directly operates the screw. All of the versions i see at my local
woodshops have the adjuster near the lower right corner.

Marc, JessEm assures me that the -newer- version has the direct drive
height adjustment, and that's the one pictured on their website.

I have had some instances where I had a fence set up across the
centerline of the cutter and needed to make a height adjustment which
necessitated repositioning the fence. I was thinking about
reorienting my insert on the table in the not too distant future.

It wouldn't matter then, if the adjustment was on that same side in the
corner. The plate should be oriented so that side is away from the
fence.

Anyway, I do enjoy the lift but I can not compare it to any other
model.

Thanks!
