SLED OPERATION:
Be sure to observe all safety precautions when using the table saw. The cut-off from your work can be thrown by the
table saw blade as it falls to the table. To help prevent this, clamp a 3/4" thick board on the opposite side of the blade.
By placing the Index Pins
(4965PA)
in the appropriate indexing holes engraved in the Sled Base, you can
set Fence angles of: 0º, 15º (12 sides), 22-1/2º (8 sides), 30º (6 sides), 36º (5 sides) & 45º (4 sides). There are
non-engraved indexing holes directly opposite the engraved indexing holes that are the same angle, only in
the opposite direction. If necessary, a spacer
(supplied by you)
can be placed between the pins and the fence
to place the fence in a better position. In addition, there are four holes that serve as parking spots for the Index
Pins. Other angles can be set using our optional 3690 Mite-R-Gage or a similar device.
See fig. 7
The fence can be used at the rear of the work
(fence closest to operator, shown in drawings)
or
in front of the work
(fence furthest away from operator, not shown).
In both cases the toggle clamps/
brackets should be positioned opposite the fence, with the work between the fence and clamps.

Crosscut Fence Setup - Vertical - Example 1:
The vertical fence configuration is normally used for crosscuts. To set the angles with the Index Pins, place
them in the desired locations
behind the vertical fence
, index the fence against them and tighten the handles.
