CT056 6” WOODWORKING JOINTER 

Operation, Continued

 

 
 
Should the workpiece be too small to safely use your hands, push pads or push 
sticks should be employed as illustrated. 

 

Rabbeting 

 
 

To form a rabbet you must bring the fence forward to the required distance from 
the end of the knives. Lower the infeed table for the first pass. Remove the knife 
guard. Rabbeting should not be attempted in one pass. Several small passes will 
result in better quality work. 
Be sure to replace the guard when rabbeting is complete
