Crosscutting - Grizzly G0764Z Owner's Manual

Crosscutting

The Model G0764Z 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 115).

Mounting the crosscut fence in the rear position
(Figure 116) gives greater stability for crosscut-
ting smaller panels.

When set up properly, the crosscut fence can

cut-off gauge, as shown in Figure 117.
