FENCE HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT
See Figure 5.
The fence on your biscuit 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 front base indicates
height settings for both 45° and 90° angles. The fence and
height indicator mark can be positioned from 5/16 in. to 13/16
in. from the center of the blade for 45° angles. It can be
positioned from 0 to 3/4 in. from the center of the blade for 90°
angles. Scale marks are in increments of 1/16 in.

WARNING:
Failure to unplug your detail biscuit joiner could result in
accidental starting causing possible serious personal
injury.

Pull the fence forward and slide it up or down until the
height indicator mark is aligned with the desired dimen-
sion on the scale.
NOTE: Slots in the front base align with a tab on the
backside of the fence. See Figure 6. This alignment
keeps the fence square at each height setting.
