Since blade thicknesses vary, always make a trial cut
in scrap material along a guideline to determine how
much, if any, the guideline must be offset to produce
an accurate cut. NOTE: The distancefrom the line of
cut to the guideline is the amount you should offset
the guideline.

See Figure 17.
RIP GUIDE (EDGE GUIDE)
Use the rip guide provided with your saw when
making wide rip cuts. A five inch scale has been
provided on the rip guide. When using the width of cut
scale on the base in combination with the rip guide,
cuts can be made up to 6 in. to the left of the blade or
8-3/4 in. to the right of the blade.
The rip guide helps prevent the bladefrom twisting in
a cut. The blade twisting in a cut can cause kickback.
