• Use appropriate safety devices. Keep hands clear of
the bit or blade. Always use a push stick, rubber soled
push block, or other safety devices to keep your hands
safely away from the cutting tool.

• Never let the bit or blade come in contact with the
aluminum body of the INCRA Right Angle Fixture.

• Never attempt to hold your work to the INCRA Right
Angle Fixture using your hands alone. Always use a
clamp or other suitable holding device to securely hold
your work to the front face of the fixture.

• Never let the bit or blade come in contact with the
wooden runners on your INCRA Right Angle Fixture.
Always clamp a wooden stop to the outfeed end of the
fence to stop the forward motion of the Right Angle
Fixture before the bit contacts the wooden runners.

INCRA Fence & Stop - Assembly and Use

Step 1. Attach the INCRA Jig to

Fig. 1

your router table.

The INCRA Fence System is designed to
work as the “front end” to the INCRA Jig

Base panel

Positioner, so the first step is to attach your
INCRA Jig to your router table. After
following the instructions in the INCRA Jig
owner’s manual for attaching your INCRA
Jig to a wooden base panel, use C-clamps
to attach the base panel to your router
table as shown in Fig. 1. If your router
table is “INCRA-ready” with built-in
mounting slots, you can use the bolt,
washer and knob combination shown in
Fig. 1A for maximum versatility and ease
of use.

Use C-clamps to attach a 3/4” thick by

9” wide plywood or MDF base panel to

your router table …

Step 2. Attach the INCRA Fence to the
INCRA Jig

Open hardware pack D-03. Place a washer on each of
the (2) 1/4-20 x 1 1/4” socket head fasteners and
insert through the upper holes on the fence. Now
loosely thread on the 1/4-20 rectangular nuts.

CAUTION: The raised rim on the two rectangular
nuts MUST FACE AWAY from the fence, as
shown in Fig. 2. Lower the rectangular nuts into the T-

slots located on the front end of the INCRA Jig, then
tighten the fasteners using the included 3/16” hex key.

Step 3. Square fence to router table.

After attaching your fence to the INCRA Jig, check
for squareness with your router table top. If any
adjustment is necessary, loosen the fence mounting
screws and insert a paper or plastic shim between
the INCRA Jig and the rear face of the fence, Fig. 3.
A shim placed below the fasteners will increase the
angle between the fence and the table. A shim
placed above the fasteners will decrease the angle.
Tighten the fasteners to secure the fence.
