KNOW YOUR DETAIL BISCUIT
JOINER
See Figure 1.
Before attempting to use this product, familiarize yourself
with all operating features and safety rules.
REVERSIBLE
FENCE
The reversible fence can be removed through key hole
slots and rotated t80 ° to change the angle of cut to 90 ° or
45 ° .
The fence should always be used to guide and balance
the biscuit joiner, providing ease of operation and main-
taining control.
BLADE
Your biscuit joiner has a t-1/2 in. 6-tooth blade for cutting
biscuit slots.
DEPTH ADJUSTMENT
KNOB(S)
A spring-loaded
depth adjustment knob makes it possible
to make proper settings for three standard size biscuits.
Fine adjustments
to the cutting depth can be made with a
knurled adjustment knob and jam nut located behind the
depth adjustment knob. Once the correct depth setting
has been made for one biscuit size, the other two depth
settings will be automatically
set.
HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT
KNOBS
The height of the fence at 90 ° can be set between 0 - 3/4
in. from the center of the blade. The height of the fence at
45 ° can be set between 5/16 in. - 13/16 in. from the center
of the blade.
HEIGHT
SETTING
SCALE
A scale on each side of the fence indicates the height of
the fence from the center of the blade.
KNURLED
ADJUSTMENT
KNOB
Fine adjustments
may be made by using the knurled ad-
justment knob and jam nut.
CENTERLINE/LINE
OF CUT INDICATOR
Centerline and line of cut indicator marks help the opera-
tor make more accurate cuts.
NON-SKID
SURFACE
The fence on the biscuit joiner has a non-skid surface to
help prevent misalignment caused by skidding during use.
It also prevents marring of the workpiece when making
cuts.

working glues and should be stored in a dry place. They are
