Working at an Angle
Install the Clamping Face at the appropriate
height setting for your project
Set the Clamping Face lower than the maximum depth of cut for your project.
▲ WARNING! Risk of cutting into aluminum. Always double check
the Clamping Face height before cutting.
Install the Angle Fence
Select which side of the Workstation you will be working
on (right or left), then attach the Angle Fence.
See page 13 for instructions.
Set the angle
A
A. Align the dot on the Angle Fence with the desired angle marking on the Scale.
B. Hold the Angle Fence in place and tighten the lock Screw to secure.
Although this fence is ideal for repeatability, we recommend using a custom fixture if your project
requires a very precise angle. More information on Custom Fixtures can be found on page 23.
Clamp your stock into the Workstation
B
Ensure the edge is pressed firmly against the Angle Fence.
Depending on your project, you may want to configure the Support Bar as a vertical
end stop for easy height adjustment. See page 11 for more information.
Install and Adjust Spoilboard
C
Spoilboard is only necessary if you are cutting beyond the edges of your workpiece.
A. Adjust the Spoilboard Cams until the Spoilboard is pressed
firmly against the back side of your material.
Be careful to not over-tighten the Cams, as this can move your material out of alignment.
Continue Setup on Origin
