The handy rip fence allows you to do extra-accurate straight cuts. Simply slide the rip fence up snugly against the side of the workpiece and secure it in position with the screws on the front and the back of the base. It also makes repeated cuts of uniform width possible.

Overturning the rip fence (guide rule) also works as a sub base for the tool.

When using the tool with guide rail

Place the tool on the guide rail with the rear edge of tool base against a fixed stop or equivalent which is clamped on the guide rail.

Hold the tool firmly with one hand on the front grip and the other on the tool handle. Then push in the lock-off button and turn the tool on and wait until the blade attains full speed. Now press down the saw head slowly to the preset depth of cut and simply move the tool forward to the desired plunge position.
