ADJUSTMENTS

FENCE HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT

See Figure 5.

The fence on your biscuit joiner can be moved up and down to adjust the position of the blade in relation to the top of the workpiece. A scale on both sides of the front base indicates height settings for both 45° and 90° angles. The fence and height indicator mark can be positioned from 5/16 in. to 13/16 in. from the center of the blade for 45° angles. It can be positioned from 0 to 3/4 in. from the center of the blade for 90° angles. Scale marks are in increments of 1/16 in.

TO ADJUST HEIGHT SETTING

See Figure 5.

Unplug your detail biscuit joiner.

WARNING:

Failure to unplug your detail biscuit joiner could result in accidental starting causing possible serious personal injury.

Loosen the two height adjustment knobs.

Pull the fence forward and slide it up or down until the height indicator mark is aligned with the desired dimen- sion on the scale.

NOTE: Slots in the front base align with a tab on the backside of the fence. See Figure 6. This alignment keeps the fence square at each height setting.

The fence on your biscuit joiner can be rotated 180° and set at either 45° or 90° angles.
