F. Clearance

Even though there are many ways to affix your
workpiece to the Shop Fox

®

, there is one thing in com-

mon with all of these arrangements. You must have the
proper clearance between the Shop Fox

®

, the clamps

and the cutting/sanding tool. It is imperative that all
clamping methods be done correctly and inspected for
proper clearance. Make a trial run with the power off
and the plug pulled. It only takes a few seconds to do
this and is well worth the effort.

WARNING: When adjusting the Shop Fox

®

or sta-

tionary machine, always turn the machine off, make
sure it has come to a complete stop and pull the plug
from the outlet or interrupt power at the disconnect
switch BEFORE performing such duties.

Figure 11. Testing for clearance. Shift clamps if they

come close to contacting the cutting tool.
