Rabbet Cutting

The purpose of rabbet cutting is to remove a section of the workpiece edge (see Figures 34

&35). When combined with another rabbet cut edge, the rabbet joints create a simple, yet strong method of joining stock.

NOTICE

If you are not experienced with a jointer, set the depth of cut to 0", and practice feeding the workpiece across the tables as described below. This procedure will better prepare you for the actual operation.

To rabbet cut on the jointer:

1.Read and understand Section 1: Safety, beginning on Page 7.

2.Make sure your stock has been inspected for dangerous conditions as described in the

Stock Inspection & Requirements instruc- tions, beginning on Page 23.

3.Set the cutting depth for your operation. (We suggest between 1⁄16" and 1⁄8" for rabbet cut- ting.

4.Remove the cutterhead guard.

5.Make sure your fence is moved forward, so the amount of infeed/outfeed table exposed is the same as the size of your rabbet. Also, make sure your fence is set to 90˚.

6.Start the jointer.

7.With a push block in each hand, press the workpiece against the table and fence with firm pressure, and feed the workpiece over the cutterhead.

Note: If your leading hand gets within 4" of the cutterhead, lift it up and over the cutterhead, and place the push block on the portion of the workpiece that is on the outfeed table. Now, focus your pressure on the outfeed end of the workpiece while feeding, and repeat the same action with your trailing hand when it gets within 4" of the cutterhead. To keep your hands safe, DO NOT let them get closer than 4" from the cutterhead when it is moving!

8.Repeat Step 7 until the your rabbet is cut to depth.

When the cutterhead guard is removed, attempting any other cut besides a rabbet directly exposes the operator to the moving cutterhead. Always replace the cutterhead guard after rabbet cutting!
