Rabbet Cutting

You may experience kickback during this procedure. Stand to the side of the blade and wear safety glasses or a face shield to prevent injury when cutting rabbets.

Commonly used in furniture joinery, a rabbet is an L-shaped groove cut in the edge of the workpiece. Rabbets can be cut with either a dado blade or a standard saw blade. The optional dado insert, Model H9910, (see Page 43) must be installed during rabbeting operations.

Rabbet cutting on the edge of the workpiece requires a sacrificial fence attachment as shown in Figure 50.

To cut rabbets with the dado blade:

1.DISCONNECT THE SAW FROM POWER!

2.Install the optional dado insert.

3.Make the sacrificial fence the same length as the fence and 34" thick.

4.Attach it to the fence with screws or clamps as shown in Figure 50, making sure they are all secure and tight.
