Rip fence (Guide rule)

The handy rip fence allows you to do extra-accurate straight
cuts. Simply slide the rip fence up snugly against the side of
the workpiece and secure it in position with the screw on the
front of the base. It also makes repeated cuts of uniform
width possible.

MAINTENANCE

CAUTION:

Always be sure that the tool is switched off and the
battery cartridge is removed before attempting to
perform inspection or maintenance.

Adjusting for accuracy of 90

° cut (vertical cut)

This adjustment has been made at the factory. But if it is off,
adjust the adjusting screw with a hex wrench while squaring
the blade with the base using a triangular rule, try square,
etc.
