Making An Auxiliary Fence - Rigid R4113 Manuel D'utilisation

OPERATION
 Release the switch trigger and allow the saw blade to
stop rotating before raising the blade out of workpiece
and removing the workpiece from the miter table.
TO SUPPORT LONG WORKPIECES
See Figure 30.
Long workpieces need extra supports. Supports, roller stand,
or work surface level with the saw table should be placed
along the workpiece so it does not sag. The support should
let the workpiece lay flat on the base of the saw and work
table during the cutting operation. Use the work clamp,
C-clamp, or other suitable clamp to secure the workpiece
when possible.
TO CLAMP WIDE WORKPIECES
See Figure 31.
When cutting wide workpieces, such as nominal 2 in. x 6 in.,
boards should be clamped with the work clamp or C-clamp.

MAKING AN AUXILIARY FENCE

See Figure 32.
Depending on the size and position of the workpiece, certain
unusual cuts may benefit from the additional support that
can be provided by an auxiliary fence. The holes provided
in the sliding miter fence are used to secure an auxiliary
fence in place.
NOTE: The auxiliary fence can only be used when the bevel
is set at 0˚. When making a bevel cut, the auxiliary fence
MUST be removed.
NOTE: It may be necessary to adjust the sliding miter fence
to ensure proper clearance prior to installing auxiliary fence.
To attach the auxiliary fence to the saw:
 Make sure the fence screw is tightened securely.
 Place one 9-1/2 in. piece of wood against the miter fence
and aligned with the left edge of the miter table.
NOTE: The appropriate height and thickness of the fence
will vary based on the miter angle and the material being
cut.
 Clamp the wood tightly against the fence and drive wood
screws from the back of the fence through the two holes
and into the auxiliary fence. If necessary, drill a pilot hole
into wood first to prevent splitting. Remove clamp when
finished.
NOTE: Make sure the screws you use to attach the
auxiliary fence do not pass through the front face of the
fence and the length of the screws will not put them in
the path of the blade at any angle.
 Make a full left miter cut through the auxiliary fence.
NOTE: Check for interference between the auxiliary fence
and the lower blade guard. Correct any interference before
proceeding.
 Repeat steps with second board by aligning with right
side of miter table and making a full right miter cut through
the auxiliary fence.
