Adjusting Front Work Stop; Using Bevel Gauge - Grizzly T32957 Owner's Manual

Adjusting Front
Work Stop
The front work stop keeps the shearing blades
from pushing the workpiece forward during cutting
operations. Use the following steps to adjust the
front work stop to the front workpiece edge once
the workpiece has been inserted under the blade
guard and is ready to be sheared.
To adjust front work stop:
1. Loosen (2) front work stop wing nuts (see
Figure 20).
