sufficient power to handle tough cutting jobs. It
develops a no load speed of 19,000 RPM.
BLADE

blade for cutting biscuit slots.
BISCUITS

Biscuits are available in three standard sizes:
R1
(7/32 in. x 5/8 in.)
R2
(9/32 in. x 3/4 in.)
R3
(1/2 in. x 1 in.)
Note: Store biscuits in a dry place because they swell
rapidly upon contact with water-based woodworking
glues.

REVERSIBLE
FENCE FOR 45 ° AND 90 °
CUTS
Your Biscuit Joiner has a reversible fence. By
loosening the height adjustment knobs, the fence can
be removed through key hole slots. Once removed, it
can be rotated 180 ° changing the angle of cut from
90 ° to 45 ° or vice versa. The height of the fence at
90 ° can be set between 0 to 3/4 in. from the center of
the blade. The height of the fence at 45 ° can be set
between 5/16 in. to 13/16 in. from the center of the
blade.
The fence should always be used to guide and
balance your Biscuit Joiner, providing ease of
operation and maintaining safe control.
NONSKID
BACKING
PAD
The fence on your Biscuit Joiner is padded with a
nonskid backing pad to hold it stationary against the
workpiece. It helps prevent skidding when making
cuts. It also prevents marring of the workpiece from
Biscuit Joiner when cutting.
INDICATOR
MARKS
Centerline and line of cut indicator marks have been
provided on your Biscuit Joiner. See Figure 2.
APPLICATIONS
(Use only for the purpose

DEPTH ADJUSTMENT
KNOB
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.
