ADJUSTABLE FENCE

See Figure 6.

The adjustable fence is located at the rear of the cut-off machine. As mentioned previously, it is used along with the vise clamp to provide a clamp for holding the workpiece securely when making cuts. It also makes the cut-off machine more versatile.

The fence can be rotated to obtain cutting angles from 0° to 45°. It also can be moved back to allow greater cutting widths in thin stock, or forward to allow greater cutting depths in tall or thick stock.
