To cut the biscuit slot, the body 

of the joiner is moved toward the 

material. By utilising the various 

features of the tool you can 

create a wide range of different 

types of joints.
Always make a reference line 

to line up the machine with the 

centre of the material to be 

plunged to ensure accurate biscuit placement.

Operation – Making a cut

1. Adjust the height of the fence as required for  

the application.

2. Adjust the bevel angle of the fence as required  

for the application.

3. Mark the cutting line on the workpiece.
4. Line up the cutting guide located at the front of the fence 

with the cutting line on the workpiece and place the 

biscuit joiner against the workpiece.

5. Turn on the biscuit joiner using the on/off switch.
6. Whilst holding the rear handle push the biscuit joiner 

forward so that the blade plunges into the workpiece.

7. Allow the return spring to retract the blade from the slot 

and then switch off.

Making an edge to edge joint

 

 

Centreline Mark(s)

1. Position the 2 pieces together and draw a reference mark 

at 90º to the centre point of each proposed joint location. 

Space the joints about 4 inches apart.

2. Set the cutting depth to suit the biscuits you are using. 

Generally, #20 biscuits suit most applications. If you are 

using stock that is 19/32 inch thick or less, you will need 

smaller biscuits.

3. Adjust the height of the fence as required.
4. Place the cutting guide at the centre point of each  

slot in turn and press the fence against the edge  

of the workpiece.

5. Switch on the biscuit joiner and plunge the blade forward 

to make the cut.

6. Allow the return spring to retract the blade from the slot 

and then switch off.

7. To cut a slot in the edge of the matching workpiece,  

place this piece on a flat surface and place the biscuit 

joiner against the edge.

8. Again line up the centre point of each slot and make  

the cuts.

9. Once all the slots are cut insert a biscuit into each joint 

and dry assemble the workpieces to ensure everything 

lines up and fits.

10. Insert a water-based glue into the slots.
11. Place the biscuits in position and clamp the joint until  

the biscuits swell and the glue sets.

Note: 

It is possible that thick pieces of timber may  

require two biscuits at each location, one at a height  

of about 1/3rd the thickness of the wood, and the other  

at about 2/3rd the thickness.
