Important safety instructions for using the INCRA
TWIN LINEAR. Before using, read and follow all of the
instructions and safety information in this manual.
❐ When using the INCRA TWIN LINEAR in conjunction
with any other tool, first read and follow all instructions
and safety information in that tool’s owner’s manual.
❐ Always turn off the power and wait until the bit or blade
comes to a complete stop before changing the setting of
any part of the INCRA TWIN LINEAR or INCRA Stop.
❐ Always keep both hands behind the fence when moving
the INCRA TWIN LINEAR to a new setting.
❐ Before making a cut, always make sure that the
carriage clamp is fully engaged and the jig is securely
locked in place.
❐ When using the INCRA TWIN LINEAR with other
tools, make sure that all safety guards and other
safety equipment supplied by the manufacturer of that
tool are securely in place and functional. Never let
the INCRA TWIN LINEAR interfere with another tool’s
safety equipment.
❐ Use appropriate safety devices. Keep hands clear of the
bit or blade. Always use a push stick, rubber soled push
block, or other safety device to keep your hands safely
away from the cutting tool.
❐ Wear safety glasses, hearing protection, and follow all
normal shop safety practices.
❐ DO NOT modify the INCRA TWIN LINEAR in an attempt
to use it with non-INCRA accessories.
❐ When adjusting the fence opening, never position the
infeed or outfeed fence ends closer than 1/8” from the
router bit.
❐ After making adjustments to the fence opening, be sure
to tighten the four socket head cap screws that secure
the fences to the fence mounting brackets.
❐ After making any offset adjustments to the fence, always
tighten the carriage tie (black clamping knob behind the
outfeed fence mounting bracket) and pull the carriage
clamp up into the locked position.
❐ When using fence settings in which the router bit is
partially recessed in the fence opening, always insure
that the bit is centered within the opening.
❐ Never let the router bit come into contact with any part
of the INCRA TWIN LINEAR, INCRA Stop, or INCRA
Right Angle Fixture.
❐ When using large diameter vertical or horizontal panel
raising bits or any other large diameter bit, always
follow that router bit manufacturer’s operation and
safety recommendations.
❐ Whenever it is necessary to remove large amounts of
stock, always use multiple side-by-side passes to
achieve the final cut. Several shallow cuts are safer and
will yield better results.
