Reversing your Shop Stop:
At some cutting stations it may be desirable to reverse
the stop surfaces of the INCRA Shop Stop. This allows
the Shop Stop to function as either an infeed or outfeed
stop at the router table, or on either side of the blade at a
chop saw or radial arm saw.
To reverse your Shop Stop, first move the micro adjust
screw to the opposite end of the gold stop cap and
tighten the nylon nut against the aluminum. Remove and
reverse the #10-32 x 3-

" machine screw that holds the
vertical stop arm to the red stop body. Replace the stop
arm on the opposite end of the stop body. Make sure the
indexing lip on the arm wraps around the front of the stop
body (Fig. 3) and that the arm is flat against the end of
the body. Tighten the machine screw. (Fig. 8)

Note:
Should you ever remove the
micro adjust screw, make sure to
tighten the nylon nut against the
aluminum when replacing it. The
nylon nut keeps the micro adjust
screw from vibrating loose during
cutting operations.

Customizing your Shop Stop:
By removing both the vertical stop arm and the
horizontal stop rod, user-made wooden stops
can be attached to the front face of the stop.
Youʼll find this feature useful when you want the
stop surface to match an odd-shaped wood
profile or a mitered board end. Fig. 11 describes
just one example of a user-made stop. By gluing
two pieces of wood together, an “L” shape can be
produced which can be cut to match the desired
profile and then screwed into the T-slot. The “L”
feature on the block can be glued on to protrude
up, down, in or out as desired.

Otherwise taller workpieces
