as 3/16" (4.76mm) and as distant as 1-3/8" (35mm) measured from
the workpiece surface to the centerline of the blade (see Figure 6).
The adjustable angle feature allows a full range of settings from 0° to
90 as well as a reverse 45° bevel which allows outside registration on
miter joints. (See Applications section under Miter Joints, Figure 27.)
The height adjustment is accomplished by first loosening the lock
knob on the right side of the fence and then rotating the knurled
adjustment knob until the desired height is reached (see Figure 6).
Tightening the lock knob will then automatically align the fence
parallel to the blade and lock it in position. The vertical scale and
pointer located directly under the lock knob can be used to assist in
setting this height. The scale readings indicate distance from the
blade centerline to the fence surface when the fence is set at 90°
(see Figure 7). The fence angle can be set simply by loosening the
lock knob on the left side of the tool, aligning the protractor scale with
the pointer and tightening the lock knob.
2. PLUNGE DEPTH ADJUSTMENT
The depth of cut can be set to match the dimensions of the particular
size biscuit you will be using. The numbers on the depth adjustment
knob (0,10,20,M) coincide with the three sizes of biscuits shown in
Figure 3. The letter M stands for the maximum depth capacity of the
tool which is 20mm (25/32"). This depth is obtainable only with a new
blade and by backing out the fine adjustment screw (see next
section).
NOTE: The M setting has been provided for future use and will not
be necessary for most biscuiting operations. To select a depth, align
the appropriate number with the red mark scribed in the tool's
housing, as shown in Figure 7. Rotate the depth adjustment knob to
the desired position and it will "click" into place.
3. FINE DEPTH ADJUSTMENT
You may encounter situations where you want to leave a little
looseness in your joint so that you can move it slightly before the
glue sets up. For these instances a fine depth adjustment has been
