RIDGID JP06101 manual Rabbeting, Support Long Workpieces, Using the Hold-Down/Push-Blocks

Rabbeting

Rabbeting is very similar to jointing except that only part of the edge is jointed. Do not remove the guard for rab- beting. To rabbet hold the workpiece firmly against the fence. Do not make cuts greater than 1/8". To make a deeper rabbet, make cuts in 1/8" deep increments. Because the workpiece is supported by the outfeed table during a rabbet cut, the infeed table must be lowered after each pass.

Stop Pin Operation

A stop pin (item #13 page 19) is supplied to prevent against planing or jointing more than 1/8" depth of cut. Planing and jointing operations greater than 1/8" per pass are not recommended. Rabbeting operations greater than 1/8" can be performed by pulling the stop pin out and lowering the infeed table in 1/8" increments. The pin automatically resets when you return to the 0" to 1/8" depth of cut range. Never cut a full 1/2" rabbet in one cut. Cut in 1/8" depth increments until your full depth is acquired.

Support Long Workpieces

To reduce the risk of injury from slips or kickbacks, use extra supports (tables, saw horses, etc.) at both infeed and outfeed ends if your workpiece is hard to hold down to the table.

Using the Hold-Down/Push-Blocks

Always use the hold-down/push-blocks whenever possi- ble when jointing or rabbeting wood.

Grasp the hold-down/push-blocks firmly with the fingers close together and wrapped around the handle. Position the hold-down/push-blocks flat, on top of workpiece and push the workpiece down against the table. This helps to provide a quality cut and minimize the chance of a kickback.

Hold-down pressure must also be sufficient to prevent hold-down/push-block from sliding or slipping on the top face of workpiece when advancing workpiece over cutter- head.

Use a hand-over-hand motion of the hold-down/push- blocks, being careful to maintain control over the work- piece at all times.

This means that once the workpiece has been fed past the cutterhead onto the outfeed table, one hold-down/ push-block must always maintain contact with the work- piece on the outfeed table.
