Assembly

The rip fence included with your Premium Fence Assembly is used to guide material parallel to the blade when
you make rip cuts (cuts that are length-wise along the grain of the wood). The fence must always be used when
making rip cuts.
To use the rip fence, begin by placing it on the
table so that the fence glide bracket is resting on
the upper rear edge of the main tube. You can
use the fence on either the left or right side of
the blade for non-bevel cuts. If you plan to make
bevel cuts, use the fence only on the right side
to prevent the blade from possibly contacting
the fence. After placing the fence on the main
tube, lift the red handle up to the unlocked
position (see Fig. 27) and slide the fence to
the left or right until the distance between the
blade and the fence is approximately equal to
the desired width of cut. Adjust the position of
the fence until the cursor on the indicator lens
is directly over the desired width of the cut. Use
the lens on the left when the fence is on the
left side of the blade and use the lens on the
right when the fence is on the right side of the
blade.
Using Your Rip Fence
Once the fence is in the correct position, push the red handle down to the locked position (see Fig. 28). The
fence is now locked in place and ready for use.
