PROBLEM
POSSIBLE.CAUSE
CORRECTIVE.ACTION
Workpiece slips or kicks
out during operation.
1. Low air pressure to clamps.
2. Clamps are adjusted too far away from
the workpiece.
3. Clamp bracket is incorrectly adjusted,
causing the clamps to make uneven
contact with the workpiece.
1. Increase the air pressure to at least 40 PSI.
2. Adjust clamps closer to the workpiece (
Page.20
).
3. Adjust the both sides of the clamp bracket and even
distance from the table (
Page.20
).
Cutter cuts slow or does
not cut properly.
1. Cutter is dull.
2. Belt is slipping on the pulley.
3. Cutter is rotating clockwise (motor is
wired incorrectly).
1. Replace or sharpen the cutter (
Page.31
).
2. Tighten belt (
Page.32
) or replace belt (
Page.32
).
3. Wire motor so cutter rotates counterclockwise.
Dovetail joint fit is too
tight.
1. Cutter is not taking a large enough
cut.
1. Adjust the cutter to take a larger cut (
Page.29
).
Dovetail joint fit is too
loose.
1. Cutter is taking too large of a cut.
1. Adjust the cutter to take a smaller cut (
Page.29
).
Tails fit too far into sock-
ets.
1. Sockets are cut too deep.
1. Adjust the cutter depth stop so the cutter will not
cut as deeply into the horizontal workpiece (
Page.
26
).
Tails will not fit com-
pletely into the sockets.
1. Cutter is not taking a large enough
cut.
2. Sockets are not cut deep enough.
1. Adjust the cutter to take a larger cut (
Page.29
).
2. Adjust cutter depth stop so the cutter will cut
deeper into the horizontal workpiece (
Page.26
).
Tails sit flush with pins
at one end but not the
other.
1. Horizontal workpieces were not posi-
tioned square when clamped.
2. Horizontal workpieces were not cut
square or workpieces were not prop-
erly prepared.
1. Reclamp the workpiece with emphasis on keeping it
square before and during clamping.
2. Cut new workpieces with emphasis on squaring up
all the boards (
Page. 18
). Check the saw or tech-
nique used to cut the boards to ensure squareness.
Gaps exist between tails
and pins.
1. Vertical workpieces were not posi-
tioned square when clamped.
2. The fixed chaser is not flush with the
horizontal table.
3. Vertical workpieces were not cut
square or workpieces were not prop-
erly prepared.
1. Reclamp the workpiece with emphasis on keeping it
square before and during clamping.
2. Loosen the 3 cap screws securing the fixed chaser,
adjust it flush with horizontal table, and tighten.
3. Cut new workpieces with emphasis on squaring up
all the boards (
Page. 18
). Check the saw or tech-
nique used to cut the boards to ensure squareness.
Dado or groove for draw-
er bottom visible on
assembled joint.
1. Dado cut in the wrong location for the
template being used.
2. Fences set incorrectly.
1. Cut dadoes in the correct location (
Page.19
).
2. Reset the fences (
Page.22
).
Dovetails fit together
correctly, but tops/
edges of workpieces
are not flush with each
other.
1. Fences were not offset by exactly half
of the template size being used.
1. Set the fences so they are offset exactly half of
the distance as the template size being used. For
example, offset the fences
1
⁄
2
" for 1" template,
3
⁄
4
"
for 1
1
⁄
2
" template, etc. Refer to
Page.22
for more
details.
Distribution of dovetails
across assembled joint is
not symmetrical.
1. Fences are not set correctly to allow
the cutter to start in the proper loca-
tion.
2. Workpiece width is not divisible by the
template size being used.
1. Reset the fences, paying close attention to where
the first cut will be made into the vertical workpiece
(
Page.22
).
2. Cut new workpieces that are divisible by template
size being used (
Page.18
); change template size to
be divisible by workpiece (
Page.21
); or align cut-
ter starting point by eye—results may not be truly
symmetrical.
