Crosscutting - Grizzly G0820 Owner's Manual

Crosscutting

The Model G0820 can crosscut full-size pan-
els with the fence in the front or rear position,
although it is easier to load full-size panels with
the crosscut fence mounted in the front position
(see Figure 109).

front position.
Mounting the crosscut fence in the rear position
(see Figure 110) gives greater stability for cross-
cutting smaller panels.
The edge shoe is used to stabilize the front end of
the workpiece when otherwise unsecured.

When set up properly, the crosscut fence can
support workpieces while using the rip fence as a
cut-off gauge, as shown in Figure 111.
