using the rip guide
1. Set the rip guide at the desired location on the ruler
guide and tighten the threaded knob. Make sure that
the rip guide is firmly tightened to avoid slippage. The
rip guide can be used for 45° and 90° cuts.
2. After the rip guide is positioned, for the desired cut,
place material flat against the rip guide and ruler guide.
3. Now you are ready to make your cut.
performing diagonal Cuts
1. Remove threaded knob from the end of the rip guide
with the horizontal groove and insert it into the other
end with the diagonal groove.
2. Set the rip guide onto the ruler guide, such that the top
edge of the rip guide is aligned with the diagonal groove to
the left of the vertical channel in the cutting table. Tighten
threaded knob once in place.
3. Place one corner of the material being cut in the vertical
slot of the ruler guide and rest the adjoining edge flat
against the rip guide.
4. Now you are ready to make your cut.
performing miter Cuts
To make miter cuts, an optional miter block must be purchased.
See Figure 13.
1. Place the lip of the miter block on the ruler guide with
the threaded knob facing you.
2. Position the miter block such that a tile laying flat
against the block may rest its left-most edge within
the vertical channel of the cutting table. Tighten the
threaded knob to secure the miter block in place.
3. Place material onto miter block and you are ready to cut.
