Rip cutting with the rip fence:

1.Remove the crosscut fence.

2.Use the table lock (Figure 53) to lock the slid- ing table into a stationary position. (To lock the sliding table, you have to engage the lock and center the table in front of the machine. The table will automatically lock when it is in the correct position.)

3.Place the rip fence in the vertical position for larger workpieces or in the horizontal posi- tion for angled cuts and operations with thin workpieces (see Figure 54).

Note: Refer to Figure 29 on Page 24 for instructions on installing/removing the rip fence.

4.Lift the lock lever and position the rip fence to approximately the desired width-of-cut.

5.Slide the leading end of the rip fence so it is even with the center of the main saw blade as shown in Figure 55.

Note: This technique allows the finished cut- off piece to “fall” away from the blade when the cutting operation is complete, reducing the possibility of kickback.

6.Push down on the rip fence micro-adjust knob (Figure 56) and turn it to precisely set the width-of-cut.
