Setting Up Crosscut Fence - Grizzly G0853 Owner's Manual

Setting Up
Crosscut Fence
Before using the crosscut fence to perform cutting
operations, it must be set up properly. This
includes positioning the crosscut fence on the
crosscut table, adjusting the support bar, adjusting
the crosscut fence distance from the blade, and
positioning the crosscut table along the sliding
table.
Positioning Crosscut Fence
The crosscut fence can be mounted in the front
or rear position (see Figure 108) depending upon
the size of the workpiece and which position will
provide the safest operation. The support bar
is adjusted accordingly for maximum workpiece
support.

Whenever the crosscut fence is moved between
the front and rear positions, you must verify the
fence is square to the blade, and the 0° stop bolts
are properly adjusted before using the fence.
Refer to Squaring Crosscut Fence to Blade on
