Yes - below is a picture of the fence extended to 48"

As for width of cut, it soon becomes apparent that the table is meant for narrower boards - when I cut the ends off of cutting boards that are 14" wide I approach the outer limits of what is OK for one cut but repetitive cuts - I'd find another way.
I believe a maximum width of 12" is more reasonable since the sled will have a tendency to tilt forward when retracted much further than that toward the front of the saw table (at least on my Jet cabinet saw).

Ken - one word - take it from a dummy - always reset that fence to zero degrees when you're done. Its really easy to start cutting with it at a degree or two and not notice till its too late!
Funny you should mention that !! It happened to me while I was doing some testing.<p><p>
