When re-fitting, use the safety guards to push them fully
home. Store the unused pair of windows in the holes
provided on the sliding guide.
For the next few steps, fit the notched windows (with the
'5-10' designation reading right way up) to both sides of
the main body by inserting them into slots beside each
window opening. Use the safety guards to push them fully
home. (Fig.2)

Step 5:
Fit the biscuit joiner back onto the table.
With the power cord disconnected, push in the safety
guards and check that the cutter clears the guards and
the plastic windows.
At full extension the cutter should protrude 13mm from
the face of each window (Fig.3). Use a screwdriver to
adjust the depth stop screws on the underside of the
sliding insert, inward or outward, until 13mm is achieved
(Fig.4). In use: You can adjust the stops to limit the
travel for shallower slots in thin material, using cut down
biscuits.

Step 6:
Fit the Sliding Guide Clamp (R) to the Sliding Guide (G),
using the Coach Bolt (S) and Round Knob (T).
With the knob loosened, you can slide the guide on and off
the main body. Tightening the knob locks the guide to the
main body (Fig.5)

Dust Extraction
The biscuit joiner has been designed for use with a
vacuum cleaner for sawdust extraction. It can be used
without dust extraction, but you will need to lift the main
body after every 20-30 cuts to clean out accumulated
shavings.
While any vacuum cleaner can be used, domestic (bag-
type) units can fill up very quickly. For a much larger
capacity, we recommend fitting a Triton Dust Collector
(DCA300) to your vacuum cleaner.
Screw the vacuum hose (left-hand thread), supplied with
your router table, onto the dust port at the end of the main
body and plug the wand of your vacuum cleaner into the
hose adaptor.
Power Connection Warning
The combined electrical load of your router and vacuum
cleaner may exceed the rated amperage of your domestic
extension lead or power outlet. Therefore you should
connect your vacuum cleaner and router to separate
outlets, and switch on both appliances separately.
Safety
• Always work in a well lit, uncluttered
environment.
• Always wear safety glasses and hearing
protection.
• Make sure the Router Table is securely locked
Fig.3
down to your Workcentre or Router Stand.
• Always switch off the power and/or disconnect
the power cord when fitting or adjusting the
cutter or raising the main body.
• Always keep hands clear of the cutter apertures in the
main body and never operate without the notched or
slotted windows in place.
• With the power off, check that the cutter
clears the safety guard and windows before
Fig.4
making a cut.
• Never push in the safety guards by hand
unless the power cord is disconnected.
• Do not join timber narrower than 14mm. The
cutter could break through the back of the
material.
