THE CONTROLS
The heart of your plate joiner
is the
base/fence
assembly.
All of the controls
that let you make a variety
of precision
cuts are located
on this assembly.
Take a
few minutes
to become
familiar
with the
various
controls.
CAUTION:
Always
turn off and unplug
plate joiner before
making
any adjustments.
1. ADJUSTABLE
FENCE
The adjustable
fence provides
a sturdy,
precise
reference
surface
to determine
the
point at which the slots for the biscuits
will
be cut. Its adjustable
height
feature
allows
you to position
biscuit
slots as close 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.

section

The height
adjustment
is accomplished
by
first loosening
the lock knob on the right
side of the fence and then rotating
the

adjustment
knob until the desired
height
is reached
(see Figure
5).
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 6). If the depth scale
ever needs
to be adjusted,
loosen
the two
screws
that secure
the scale and move
