CLEANING THE BASE ASSEMBLY AND DUST
PATH
See Figures 25 - 27.
After extended use, wood particles and resin may build up
inside the base assembly of your biscuit joiner and clog the
path for wood particles going into dust bag. Wood particles
packing up in this area not only defeats the dustless feature
of your biscuit joiner, it also makes cutting biscuit slots more
difficult.
n Unplug the biscuit joiner.
n Remove the dust bag.
n Place the biscuit joiner upside down on a workbench.
n Using a screwdriver, remove the four screws and washers
securing the shoe. Remove the shoe.
n Remove the blade. See "Replacing the Blade."
n With the blade removed, place the biscuit joiner right side
up. Using a pair of needle nose pliers, stretch and release
the springs from the tabs on the bearing plate.
