D. Angled Work
You can position your workpiece anywhere from 90°
vertical to 45° left or right from vertical on the face
plate. Figure 16. This is particularly useful when angle
slotting or cutting angled tenons. Always use a mini-
mum of two clamps to secure angled work.

C. Vertical Work
You can locate your workpiece in many positions
on the face plate depending upon your requirements.
When holding the stock vertically on the face plate,
use the 90° angle bracket to support the work on the
exit side. If you change cutter rotation, the 90° angle
bracket must be moved to the opposite side of the face
plate in order to support the work on the exit side.
We also recommend placing a backing block between
the angle bracket and the workpiece to back up the
workpiece and reduce the risk of tear out. Always use
a minimum of two clamps for vertical work.
