Edge fence (Guide rule)

Edge fence is useful for minimizing a short run of cut by cut-
ting in a uniform width. The edge fence (guide rule) is pro-
vided on the side of the tool. Press two pins for the edge
fence (guide rule) so that the edge fence appears. Move the
tool forward while keeping the flat surface of the edge fence
in contact with the side of the workpiece.
To return the edge fence to an original position, push it
upwards from its underside.

Foot

After a cutting operation, raise the back side of the tool and a
foot comes under the level of the rear base. This prevents
the tool blades to be damaged.

Guideline of cutting blade passage

Both ends of the front base are a guideline to show the ends
