ADJUSTABLE FENCE
See Figure 6.
The adjustable fence is located at the rear of your cut-off
machine. As mentioned previously, it is used along with the
vise clamp to provide a clamp for holding your workpiece
securely when making cuts. It also makes your cut-off
machine more versatile.
The fence can be rotated to obtain cutting angles from 0
°
to
45
°
. It also can be moved back to allow greater cutting widths
in thin stock, or forward to allow greater cutting depths in tall
or thick stock.
CUTTING ANGLE ADJUSTMENT
See Figures 6 and 7.
■ Unplug your cut-off machine.
WARNING:
Failure to unplug cut-off machine could result in accidental
