ABSTRACT:
A rip fence for use with a table saw or the like having a rotatable saw blade extending through its upper surface is disclosed. The rip fence holds a workpiece in position relative to the rotatable saw blade for longitudinal or rip cutting along the length of the workpiece. The rip fence includes depending front and rear clamps which are operatively connected for simultaneous releasable clamping engagement with corresponding surfaces of the table saw. For adjusting of the rip fence, the front and rear clamps are unlocked, and a spring biased lever maintains the rip fence in squared relationship to the table, while permitting adjustment relative to the rotatable saw blade. Removal and storage of the rip fence, when not in use, is also facilitated by de-activating the spring biased lever. The locking, unlocking and release of the rip fence relative to the table saw is achieved by the use of a pivoting handle which is moved from a locked to an unlocked and also a released position, for the purposes desired.
