The type of cut dictates the position of the fence pieces 
during operation. There are three basic types of cuts 
when straight shaping—full face, partial face, and plunge 
cuts.
=lcc=XZ\:lk%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%=\eZ\G`\Z\jF]]j\k
Full face cutting is similar to a jointer cut where the 
entire edge of the workpiece is removed. These cuts are 
most often performed with straight, tongue-and-groove, 
crown moulding bits, etc. The outfeed fence must be set 
forward from the infeed fence when full face cutting, so 
the workpiece is supported by the outfeed fence after it 
has been cut (
=`^li\*-).
The distance that the outfeed fence is set forward from 
the infeed fence will dictate the depth of cut. Keep 
in mind that removing too much material at one time 
increases the risk of kickback. Instead, make multiple 
passes if you need to remove a large amount of material.

Partial face cutting is where part of the edge of the 
workpiece rides on a rub collar or bearing and is not cut. 
These cuts are typically performed with profiles, stile-
and-rails, rabbets, etc. Partial face removal cuts can be 
done with or without the fence, because the rub collar or 
bearing dictates the depth of cut. When the fence is used 
for these types of cuts, the fence pieces are aligned with 
each other and are aligned with the forward most edge 
of the bearing or router bit (
=`^li\*.). (We strongly 
recommend using the fence whenever possible because 
it allows for maximum support, which results in safer 
operation.)
Gcle^\:lkj%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% =\eZ\G`\Z\j8c`^e\[
Plunge cutting is when the workpiece is fed over the top 
of the cutter or bit. This type of cut is typically used for 
slots, dovetails, T-slots, etc. The fence pieces must be 
aligned when plunge cutting to provide a single plane for 
the workpiece to slide against (
=`^li\*/).
