[. . . ] Once desired depth of cut is reached, hold jam nut so that it will not move out of adjustment. The adjustable fence on your plate joiner can be moved up and down to adjust the position of the blade in relation to the top of the workpiece. A scale on both sides of the fence indicates the height of the fence from the center of the blade. The fence can be positioned up to two inches from the center of the blade. However, the scale and indicator point can only be set up to 1-1/2 in. FRONT HANDLE / ADJUSTMENT FENCE TO ADJUST HEIGHT SETTING See Figure 5. TO LOWER ADJUSTABLE FENCE HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT KNOB(S) HEIGHT SETTING SCALE WARNING: Failure to unplug your plate joiner could result in accidental starting causing possible serious personal injury. Slide the fence up or down until the indicator point is aligned with the desired dimension on the scale. ANGLE SETTING SCALE INDICATOR POINT FENCE ANGLE ADJUSTMENT See Figure 6. The adjustable fence on your plate joiner can be set at angles ranging from 0° to 135°, with quick, accurate positive stops set in 45° increments. A scale is located on both sides of the front handle for identifying these positive stop angles. The joint will be stronger if you use multiple biscuits placed close together. Slide the fence up or down until the indicator point is aligned with the desired dimension on the scale. REMEMBER: The scale indicates the height of the fence from the center of the blade. Select the correct depth of cut setting to match the biscuit size you are planning to use. We suggest that you make a test cut in a scrap piece of wood from the same workpiece if possible. Clamp workpiece securely so that it will not move during the cut.

Once all biscuit slots have been cut, place a biscuit in each joint and dry assemble the workpieces. Finally, disassemble the workpieces and place a bead of glue in each slot. Clamp workpieces together until the glue sets up. BUTT JOINTS See Figure 9. [. . . ] Failure to do so could cause an accident since blade screw will not tighten properly. Place new blade onto shoulder of blade washer and secure with outer blade washer and blade screw. 26 MAINTENANCE HOW TO REPLACE THE BLADE (Continued) NOTE: Blade teeth point toward the right of the tool when held in normal operating position. An arrow on the bottom of the front base assembly also indicates direction of rotation. [. . . ]
