USING WOOD FACING ON THE RIP FENCE (Fig. CC)
When performing some special cutting operations, add a
wood facing (1) to either side of the rip fence (2).
1 . Use a smooth straight 3/4" thick wood board (1) that is
as long as the rip fence.
2. Attach the wood facing to the fence with wood screw
(3) through the hole in the fence. A wood fence should
be used when ripping material such as thin paneling
to prevent the material from catching between the
bottom of the fence and the table.
