Rip Cutting with Rip Fence
1.
Slide crosscut table out of the way.
2.
Lock sliding table into a stationary position
(see Figure 75).
Note: The table will only lock in place when it
is centered with the saw cabinet.
Figure 75. Sliding table lock.
3.
Place fence in vertical position for larg-
er workpieces, or in horizontal position for
angled cuts and for small workpieces (see
Figure 76).

4. Slide leading end of rip fence so it is even
with center of main saw blade as shown in
Figure 77.
Note: This technique allows the finished cut-
off piece to "fall" away from the blade when
the cutting operation is complete; reducing
the possibility of kickback.

(blade guard removed for clarity).
5. Tighten lock handles (see Figure 78) to
secure rip fence against base.

Take all necessary safety precautions, then

saw.
