Figure 59. Crosscutting workpieces
using the rip fence as a cut-off gauge.
Lastly, this machine has the capability of cross-
cutting workpieces while using the rip fence as a
cut-off gauge (
Figure 59).
Determine which cutting operation will be best
suited for the workpiece to be crosscut.
— If you will be crosscutting full size panels,
then skip ahead to “Crosscutting full size
panels.”
— If you will be crosscutting smaller panels,
then skip ahead to “Crosscutting smaller
panels.”
— If you will be crosscutting workpieces using
the rip fence as a cut-off gauge, then skip
ahead to “Crosscutting using the rip fence
as a cut-off gauge.”
Figure 58. Crosscutting smaller panels.
Figure 57. Crosscutting full size panel.
The Model G0588/G0591 can crosscut full size
panels with the fence in the forward or rear posi-
tion, although it is easier to load full size panels
with the crosscut fence mounted in the forward
position (see
Figure 57).
Mounting the crosscut fence in the rear position
(
Figure 58) gives greater stability for crosscutting
smaller panels.
