ASSEMBLY & ADJUSTMENTS
SETTING THE CUTTING DEPTH
The depth adjustment dial helps to control the depth of cut for different
size biscuits. The dial has depths that correlate to biscuit sizes #0, #10,
and #20
(see pages 13 and 14 for detailed biscuit information)
along
with a setting “M” that correlates to the deepest cut the biscuit joiner
can cut.
It is recommended to calibrate the depth of cut initially and every few
months, depending on frequency of use. To calibrate the depth of cut,
carry out the following steps:
1. Rotate the depth adjustment dial (Fig. 2 - 1) to the desired setting
that correlates to the biscuit size that will be used.
2. Measure the depth of the cut by one of the following methods:
a) Press the fence assembly (Fig. 3 - 1) back as far as possible, being
very careful to avoid the blade. Measure the distance that the blade pro-
trudes from the fence. This distance should be slightly more than half
the width of the correlated biscuit.
b) Make a test cut in a piece of scrap wood. Try to fit the correlated
biscuit into the slot and determine if the slot is deep enough.
3. If the depth of cut is incorrect, loosen the depth stop nut on the depth
bolt (Fig. 4 - 1) and thread the bolt to the desired depth. Tightening the
depth bolt will make the cut shallower, whereas loosening the bolt will
make the cut deeper.
4. Recheck the depth of cut by repeating step 2. If the depth of cut is
accurate, tighten the depth stop nut against the stop to secure the posi-
tion of the depth bolt.
SETTING THE FENCE ANGLE
The angle fence can be adjusted to account for bevel angles on the
workpiece. To adjust the fence angle:
1. Loosen angle lock knob (Fig. 5 - 1) and rotate angle fence (Fig. 5 - 2)
to the desired angle.
2. Tighten the angle lock knob. Check that the angle fence is secure
before cutting into the workpiece
