SawStop T-Glide Fence System - Manual (Page 14)

Using Your T-Glide Fence System
The precise width of cut is shown by the indicator lenses on the front of the fence (see Fig. 24). The lens on the
left indicates the width of cut when the fence is on the left side of the blade. The lens on the right indicates the
width of cut when the fence is on the right side of the blade. Each indicator lens is positioned above a ruler on
the front tube. Each lens has a red cursor line that indicates the precise width of cut. To read the width of cut,
look down at the cursor line. The mark on the ruler that is directly below the cursor line is the width of cut.
Adjust the position of the fence until the cursor is directly over the desired width of the cut. Once the fence is in
the correct position, push the red locking handle down to the locked position. The fence is now locked in place
and ready for use.
The rip fence included with your T-Glide Fence System is used to guide material parallel to the blade when you
make rip cuts (cuts that are length-wise along the grain of the wood). The fence must always be used when
making rip cuts. The fence also allows you to precisely set the width of your rip cuts.
To use the rip fence, begin by placing it on the
table so that the fence glide bracket is resting
on the upper rear edge of the front tube. You
can use the fence on either the left or right
side of the blade for non-bevel cuts. If you
plan to make bevel cuts, use the fence only
on the right side to prevent the blade from
possibly contacting the fence. After placing
the fence on the rails, lift the red handle up
to the unlocked position (see Fig. 23) and
slide the fence to the left or right until the
distance between the blade and the fence is
approximately equal to the desired width of
cut.
