Guide fences

WARNING:

 

Before operating the tool, make 

sure that the upper fence is secured firmly.

WARNING:

 

Before bevel-cutting, make sure 

that no part of the tool, especially the blade, con-

tacts the upper and lower fences when fully low-

ering and raising the handle in any position and 

while moving the carriage through its full range 

of travel.

 If the tool or blade makes contact with 

the fence this may result in kickback or unexpected 

movement of the material and serious personal injury.

Use upper fences to support the material higher than 

the lower fences. Insert the upper fence into the hole on 

the lower fence and tighten the clamping screw.

NOTICE:

 The lower fences are fixed to the base in 

the factory. Do not remove the lower fences.

NOTICE:

 If the upper fence is still loose after tight-

ening the clamping screw, turn the adjusting screw to 

close a gap. The adjusting screw is factory adjusted. 

You don't need to use it unless needed.

You can store the upper fences onto the holder when 

not in use. Use the clip on the upper fence to hold it on 

the holder.

WARNING:

 

The workpiece must be secured 

firmly against the turn base and guide fence with 

the vise during all operations.

 If the workpiece is 

not properly secured against the fence the material 

may move during the cutting operation causing 

possible damage to the blade, causing the material 

to be thrown and loss of control resulting in serious 

personal injury.

The vertical vise can be installed in two positions on 

either the left or right side of the base. Insert the vise 

rod into the hole in the base.

Position the vise arm according to the thickness and 

shape of the workpiece and secure the vise arm by 

tightening the screw. If the clamping screw contacts 

the carriage, install it on the opposite side of vise arm. 

Make sure that no part of the tool contacts the vise 

when lowering the handle all the way. If some part 

contacts the vise, re-position the vise.

Press the workpiece flat against the guide fence and the 

turn base. Position the workpiece at the desired cutting 

position and secure it firmly by tightening the vise knob.

NOTE:

 For a quick setting of workpiece, turning the 

vise knob to 90° counterclockwise allows the vise 

knob to be moved up and down. To secure the work

-

piece after setting, turn the vise knob clockwise.
