Flip Arms and Stop Rods
The dual flip arms and stop rods provided permit a variety of stop configurations. The
flip arms can be used without the stop rods when you want to take advantage of the
fence/arm tongue and groove feature for stop control on mitered board ends. Typically
you will use the longer rod to join the two arms together.
Fig 5. This produces an
arrangement that, when pivoted, moves both arms simultaneously. The rod can be
positioned so that it is the actual stop surface or it can be positioned slightly behind the
front of the arm so that the aluminum arm is the actual stop surface.
By placing one of the shorter 1
1
⁄
2
" rods in each of the two stop arms, you can use the
two stop arms independently.
Fig 6. For example, you can calibrate one for work to the
left of the blade and the other for work to the right. On one side of the blade you might
want to position the stop rods to provide two different cut off lengths from one position.
Just pivot the arm nearest the blade up and the second arm is ready. By using varying
combinations of long or short rods you can create as much as 7

" between the two
stop positions.
Expanded Clamping Mode
The two part body design of the IncrA Flip Stop allows for the use of a
3
⁄
4
" wooden
subfence. The subfence can be used to provide tear out control as well as support
for your workpiece up to and beyond the blade. To expand the Incra Flip Shop Stop,
loosen the two socket head screws located on the top of the stop body, then slide
the upper portion of the stop off. now slide the upper portion back on, capturing the
rectangular nuts in the second T-slot located on the lower portion of the stop body,

Making a Zero Clearance Wooden Subfence
A good material to use for making your zero clearance subfence is
3

" medium density
fiberboard (MDF). Use the drill and counterbore dimensions shown to the right.
Fig 8.
Adjust the length of the fence to accommodate your application.
*Note:
In applications where the incremental stopping capability of the Flip Shop Stop
is required, the wooden fence can be no taller than 2

Making a Wooden Auxiliary Stop Surface
In some applications you may discover that making and attaching a wooden stop
surface to one of the flip arms can be beneficial. Use a wood screw to attach the
wooden auxiliary stop through the slotted hole located midway up the flip arm. You
can equip the second flip arm with the longer stop rod to provide outboard support for
the auxiliary stop.
Fig 9.
To avoid the saw blade pulling your workpiece into the cut,
add a strip of adhesive backed sandpaper to the front face
of the wooden subfence.
