• Be sure the Rip Fence 9 is parallel to the
sawblade.
• Be sure the Riving Knife 24 is properly
aligned with the sawblade.
• Be sure the Anti-Kickback Device 26 is func-
tioning properly.

When the width of the rip puts the Rip Fence
9 off of the Table 13, use the Flip-Over Fence
18, in the work support position to support the
workpiece next to the Flip-Over Fence 18.
When ripping LONG BOARDS or LARGE PANELS,
al ways use an appropriate work support.

Bevel Ripping

When bevel ripping material 6" (152 mm) or nar-
rower, only use the Rip Fence 9 on the right side
of the Blade 32. This will provide more space
between the Rip Fence 9 and the Blade 32 for
the use of the Push Stick 8. If the Rip Fence 9 is
mounted to the left, the Barrier Guard Assembly
25 may interfere with the proper use of the Push
Stick 8.
Using the Rip Fence Pointer
(Fig. 82)
The Rip Fence Pointer 80 shows the distance
from the Blade 32 to the Rip Fence 9.
Silver Rip Fence Index Pins 58: When the Rip
Fence 9 is on the Silver Rip Fence Index Pins 57,
the Top Silver Scale 78 indicates the position of
the Rip Fence 9 relative to the right side of the
Blade 32. In this position, the Rip Fence 9 can
be used from 0" to 20" (0 mm to 508 mm).
Right Black Rip Fence Index Pins 59: When
the Rip Fence 9 is on the Right Black Rip Fence
Index Pins 59, the Bottom Black Scale 79 indi-
cates the position of the Rip Fence 9 relative
to the right side of the Blade 32. In this posi-
tion, the Rip Fence 9 can be used from 5" to 25"
(127 mm to 635 mm).
