Ok Tom. What you are saying is making sense to me now. With the fence on the right side I can see how the clockwise rotation would help pull the fence tight to the work piece.
When you go to cut a dado across a board, IE a cabinet end, you will use a clamped straight edge as a guide. Following the logic that you want the cutter to pull you towards your guide, it should be on the left side and you should be pushing away from you. Correct?
