Rabbet Cuts

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.

Rabbet cutting on the edge of the workpiece requires a sacrificial fence attachment (Figure 48). Make the sacri- ficial fence the same length as the fence and 3⁄4" thick. Attach it to the fence with screws or clamps, making sure they are all secure and tight. With the saw turned ON, raise the blade into the sacrificial fence to the height needed.

To cut rabbets with the dado blade, do these steps:

1.DISCONNECT THE SAW FROM POWER!

2.Adjust the dado blade to the height needed for the rabbeting operation. When cutting deep rabbets, take more than one pass to reduce the risk of kick- back.

3.Adjust the fence and align the workpiece to perform the cutting operation as shown in Figure 49.

4.Reconnect the saw to the power source and turn the saw ON.

5.When the blade has reached full speed, perform a test cut with a scrap piece of wood.

6.If the cut is satisfactory, repeat the cut with the final workpiece.

Serious injury can be caused by kickback. Kickback is a high-speed expulsion of stock from the tablesaw toward an operator. The operator or bystanders may be struck by flying stock, or the operator’s hands can be pulled into the blade during the kickback.
