4. Rip Fence Guide
This machine is fitted with a two piece Rip Fence. We recommend
that the Rip Fence is normally used in conjunction with its
adjustable Face piece.
The Rip Fence should be positioned to the RH side of the blade
and is locked in position by using the locking lever. Push down to
lock, and pull up to unlock.
When repositioning the Rip Fence use the mid-point of the fence
to push or pull the fence to the desired position.
(Fig. 14) Using the mid-point aids accuracy and speed of setting.
The clamping system is designed to correctly align the fence
when the locking lever is pushed down.
Check alignment by sighting either side of the fence with any of
the ' lines' that run across the table.
If misalignment is suspected, the pressure being applied by the
Rip Fence locking lever could be at fault.
To adjust the locking lever pressure:
•
Ensure that the locking lever is in the unlocked position.
•
Turn the clamp pressure adjustment nut (Fig. 15) one flat
either clockwise or counter-clockwise.
•
Recheck Rip Fence operation and alignment.
•
Continue nut adjustment until the Rip Fence operation is
satisfactory and alignment and clamping is always achieved
wherever the fence is positioned.
Note: The Rip Fence guide incorporates a 'transparent window'
with a datum line to aid reading the measurement scale found
on the fence rail. (Fig. 16)
Forwards and backwards adjustment of the Rip Fence Face is
possible. Loosen the two thumb nuts and slide the aluminium
Fence Face extrusion to the desired position. Tighten the thumb
nuts securely.
Note: We recommend that normally the Rip Fence Face be
adjusted so that the rear of the Fence Face is level with the rear
of the blade where it emerges from the table. This will provide
clearance for the workpiece as it passes the blade.
The Rip Fence Face has a 'Hi' and 'Lo' position. The 'Lo' position
can be very useful when cutting thin sheet material as it gives
the operator a better view of the workpiece as it passes through
the blade. (Fig.17)
