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 perform with a rip
fence (Fig. 14). A rip fence is available as an
accessory (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 locking nut (included with the rip fence).

guide.
