The European style 51″ rip fence consists of a heavy-duty casting riding on a micro-polished solid steel bar. On the backside of the casting is a small adjustable wheel to make sideways movement a breeze. The rip fence is outfitted with a micro adjustment for fine-tuning; simply lock it in place and adjust fence incrementally.
The overhead guard comes standard with quick-change 90° and 45° guards; you can switch from one to the other in a matter of seconds. A nice detail is the swing-away function that allows you to quickly move the guard out of the way. Dust collection hookup is out of the way at the end of gantry (5″).
The heavy-duty anodized aluminum crosscut fence features two solid flip-stops, telescoping function (max 108″), 45° miter and is ergonomically designed to make it easier to read the tape.
Inside the P12|8 you will find heavy castings, solid gears and precision-machined trunnions mounted onto the solid steel frame.
The heavy-duty motor is equipped with soft start to minimize initial amperage draw.
The P12/8 comes standard with hold-down clamp, rip shoe, and push handle.
