RIP CUTS (FIG. 14)
The blade provided with your saw is designed
for both cross cuts and rip cuts. Ripping is
cutting lengthwise with the grain of the wood.
Rip cuts are easy to do with a rip fence
(Fig. 14). A rip fence is available as an
accessory (Model FT211, not included). To
attach a fence, insert the fence through the slots
in the foot to the desired width, as shown, and
secure it with the wing nut (included with the rip
fence).
RIP-BOARD GUIDE (FIG. 15)
When rip cutting large sheets, the rip fence may
not allow the desired width of cut. Clamp or nail
a straight piece of 1" (25 mm) lumber to the
sheet as a guide (Fig. 15). Use the right side of
the foot against the board guide.
