2. SETTING THE RIP FENCE
Rip Fence Stop Height
Thin Material
Thick Material
The rip fence supplied with the table saw has two different guide faces.
1 for thick material and 1 for thin material.
2 Slide the stop rail off and
re-insert into the desired rail.
Note:
The screws can also be
removed and re-inserted from
the other direction so that the flat
guide face is on the opposite side.
1 To change the stop rail,
loosen the 2 screws.
3 Tighten the 2 screws to lock in place.
Note:
Rule of thumb: The rear end of the stop comes up against an
imaginary line that begins roughly at the centre of the blade and runs
at an angle of 45° to the rear.
1 Set the required cutting
width.
2 Loosen the 2 fence screws
and push the stop rail
forward until it touches the
imaginary 45° line.
3 Retighten the 2 fence
screws.

The rip fence has to be used
when making longitudinal cuts in
wooden work pieces.
The rip fence can be mounted on
either side of the saw table but
may require you to change the
orientation of the guide rail.
1 Loosen the rip fence lever and
insert the fence onto the table
guide rail.
3 Tighten the rip fence lever to
lock the rip fence in position.

The stop rail can be moved in a longitudinal direction in order to
prevent the workpiece from becoming jammed.
