AUXILIARY WOOD FENCE
When performing multiple or repetitive
operations that result in small cut-off pieces (one inch or
less), the saw blade can catch the cut-off pieces and project
them out of the machine or into the blade guard and housing,
causing damage or injury. To limit the risk, mount an auxiliary
wood fence on your saw (Fig. 34).
Holes are provided in the fence to attach an auxiliary fence (A)
Fig. 34. This auxiliary fence is constructed of straight wood
approximately 1/2" thick by 3" high by 20" long. NOTE: The
auxiliary fence (A) is used ONLY with the saw blade in the 0
degree bevel position (90 degrees to the table). When bevel
cutting (blade tilted), remove the auxiliary fence.
