Milwaukee Fence Pinion Knob
Model Number: 43-98-0013
The Milwaukee 43-98-0013 Fence Pinion Knob is a genuine OEM replacement part designed for the Milwaukee 2736-20 M18 FUEL 8-1/4 in. Table Saw with ONE-KEY (serial code J35A) and is also referenced on the related 2760-20 platform per Milwaukee bulletin 54-40-2760R. Identified as Figure 48 on Milwaukee service bulletin 54-00-2736, the fence pinion knob is the operator-facing handle that drives the rack-and-pinion fence system, the precision fence design that defines the 2736-20 platform. Turning the pinion knob rotates the fence pinion shaft, which in turn drives the pinion gears that translate rotary input into smooth, parallel fence travel along the saw's rip rails. The rack-and-pinion design is what allows the 2736-20 to deliver fast, accurate fence adjustments with both rails moving in sync, eliminating the racking and binding that plague single-rail clamping fences and giving the operator true square cuts up to 24-1/2 in. of rip capacity.
The fence pinion knob is one of the most heavily used controls on the table saw and is subject to wear, cracking, slippage on its shaft engagement, and eventual breakage from repeated turning, dropped tools, or jobsite impact. A worn, cracked, or stripped knob makes the fence difficult or impossible to adjust accurately, which compromises the cut accuracy that the rack-and-pinion system was designed to deliver. Replacing the knob with this OEM service part restores correct shaft engagement, smooth turning action, and the precise fence control the saw was designed around. Because Milwaukee Tool specifies replacement parts by both catalog number and serial number, always verify your tool's serial number against the official Milwaukee 2736-20 service parts diagram before ordering, since Milwaukee occasionally implements running production changes that affect part compatibility within the same catalog number. When the pinion knob is failing, it is also worth inspecting the fence pinion shaft (45-08-0001), fence pinion bushings (42-40-0002), and fence pinion gears (32-60-0011) for wear at the same time, since these companion components share the same service life and a knob failure is sometimes accompanied by wear elsewhere in the pinion drive. All companion parts are sold separately. Verify by serial number using Milwaukee's online parts lookup before ordering to confirm correct fitment.
