USING WOOD FACING ON THE RiP FENCE (FIG. GG)

When performing some special cutting operations, you can add a wood facing (1) to either side of the rip fence (2).

NOTE: Before using wood facing on the rip fence, make sure the auxiliary fences are lowered flush to the table top.

1.Use a smooth straight 3/4 in. thick wood board (1) that is as long as the rip fence.

2.Attach the wood facing to the fence with wood screws (3) through the hole in the fence. A wood fence should be used when ripping material such as thin paneling to prevent the material from catching between the bottom of the fence and the table.
