TAPER CUTS
Offsetting the Fences
Taper cuts can be made by offsetting the fences for the
amount of taper desired, or with a layout line on the stock
which can be made parallel to the infeed fence as shown in
Figure 42.
1. Start the cut by holding the stock against the infeed
fence and swinging it into contact with the outfeed fence
just past the cutterhead.
2. As the cut is started, transfer pressure to hold the
workpiece against the outfeed fence, and continue feeding the workpiece through.
3. After the first cut the fences will have to be readjusted in order for the second cut (parallel
cut) and the final depth of cut to remain true with the taper.
CAUTION:
Do not use the standard fence for short work (12 inches or
less in length on the side to be cut). Instead, use a miter gauge or special fixture to
avoid losing control of the workpiece.
