8. Wood facing
Use of wood facing helps to assure splinter-free cuts in
workpieces. Attach a wood facing to the guide fence
using the holes in the guide fence.
See the figure concerning the dimensions for a sug-
gested wood facing.
CAUTION:
• Use straight wood of even thickness as the wood facing.
• When cutting workpieces from 107 mm (4 - 1/4”) to 120
mm (4 - 3/4”) high, use a wood facing to prevent a
portion of the workpiece near the guide fence from being
left uncut.
Example:
When cutting workpieces 120 mm (4 - 3/4”) high,
use a wood facing with the following thickness.
CAUTION:
• Use screws to attach the wood facing to the guide fence.
The screws should be installed so that the screw heads
are below the surface of the wood facing.
• When the wood facing is attached, do not turn the turn
base with the handle lowered. The blade and/or the
wood facing will be damaged.
