ADJUSTABLE FENCE (Fig. 4)
The adjustable fence is located at the rear of your cut-off
machine. It is used along with the vice clamp to provide a
clamp for holding your workpiece securely when making cuts.
It also makes your cut-off machine more versatile.
The fence can be rotated to obtain cutting angles from 0° to
45° (L&R). It can also be moved back to allow greater cutting
widths in thin stock, or moved forward to allow greater cutting
depths in tall or thick stock.
CUTTING ANGLE ADJUSTMENT (Fig. 4)
■ Unplug your cut-off machine.
WARNING:
Failure to unplug cut-off machine could result in accidental
starting causing possible serious personal injury.
■ Loosen the fence quick lock, by using the wrench supplied.
Then loosen the fence bolt to secure the adjustable fence.
■ Rotate fence until the desired angle of cut on the scale is
aligned with the indicator in machine base.
■ For precise cuts, check the angle of cut for the fence
against the abrasive wheel with a protractor, bevel square,
or other similar device.
■ Tighten the fence quick lock, by using the wrench supplied,
then securely tighten fence bolt. Return wrench to its
