Cutter Depth Stop
The cutter depth stop adjustment bolt (Figure 38)
dictates the depth of the sockets (Figure 39) by
controlling how far the cutter will cut into the hori-
zontal workpiece.
Stop Adjustment
Figure 38. Cutter depth stop adjustment bolt.
Figure 39. Socket depth.
The cutter depth should be the same as the tail
thickness, so that when the joint is assembled the
tails are flush with the pins (Figure 40).

3.
Clamp vertical workpiece in position on the
machine, then clamp the horizontal workpiece
in place against the vertical workpiece.
4. Move the cutter to the right of the horizontal
workpiece and make sure the tracer pin is in
the "in" position.
5.
Rotate the cutter until the leading edge is at
the farthest point in rotation toward the rear of
the machine.
6.
From the right-hand side of the machine,
look across the table at the cutter position in
relation to the pencil line.
7. Adjust the cutter depth bolt until the tip of the
cutter aligns with the pencil line (Figure 42),
then tighten the hex nut.
