ADJUSTING THE CUTTING HEIGHT
NOTE: Always unplug the biscuit jointer before making any adjustments.
The height can be set by unlocking both of the bevel adjustment levers
and sliding the fence to the desired
level with the aid of the scale.
(refer to fig.1).
Normally the height set corresponds
to half the material’s thickness
(biscuit grooves are cut in the
centre of the piece). Note: a
thicker piece may have more than
one biscuit across it’s thickness i.e.
one at 1/3rd and one at 2/3rds.
If the bevel adjustment levers are in
the way when working, pull the lever
out and turn to a new position.
SETUP CONTINUED
MOUNTING THE DUST EXTRACTION
For dust extraction connect either a
vacuum to the dust extraction
adaptor or the included dust bag.
Regularly empty the dust bag to
maintain dust extraction
performance.
ADJUSTING THE CUTTING ANGLE
The cutting angle can be set by
unlocking both bevel adjustment
levers and moving the fence to
the required angle.
(refer to fig.1).

location ‘B’, space additional joints along the timbers edge approx. 100mm
apart.
2. Clamp the work piece securely so
that it will not move during the cut.
3.
Set the plunge depth to the size of
biscuits to be used. No.20 biscuits are
generally suitable for most
applications. If you are using stock
which is 15mm or less in thickness
then smaller biscuits will be required.
4.
Unlock the bevel adjustment levers
and adjust the angle of the fence
to 90°.
Set the height of the fence
as required and re-lock the bevel
adjustment levers.
5. Hold the tool with one hand on the handle and the other hand on the motor

Employers are advised to refer to the HSE publication “Guide for Employers”.
All hand held power tools vibrate to some extent, and this vibration is transmitted to the operator
via the handle, or hand used to steady the tool. Vibration from about 2 to 1500 herz is potentially
damaging and is most hazardous in the range from about 5 to 20 herz.
Operators who are regularly exposed to vibration may suffer from Hand Arm Vibration Syndrome
(HAVS), which includes ‘dead hand’, ‘dead finger’, and ‘white finger’. These are painful
conditions and are widespread in industries where vibrating tools are used.
The health risk depends upon the vibration level and the length of time of exposure to it……in
effect, a daily vibration dose.
Tools are tested using specialised equipment, to approximate the vibration level generated under
normal, acceptable operating conditions for the tool in question. For example, a grinder used at
45° on mild steel plate, or a sander on softwood in a horizontal plane etc.
These tests produce a value‘a’, expressed in metres per second per second, which represents the
average vibration level of all tests taken, in three axes where necessary, and a second figure ‘K’,
which represents the uncertainty factor, i.e. a value in excess of ‘a’, to which the tool could
vibrate under normal conditions. These values appear in the declaration on page 7.
HAND-ARM VIBRATION
You will note that a third value is given in the specification - the highest measured reading in a
single plane. This is the maximum level of vibration measured during testing in one of the axes,
and this should also be taken into account when making a risk assessment.
a values in excess of 2.5 m/s
2
are considered hazardous when used for prolonged periods. A
tool with a vibration value of 2.8 m/s
2
may be used for up to 8 hours (cumulative) per day,
whereas a tool with a value of 11.2 m/s
2
may be used for ½ hour per day only.
The graph below shows the vibration value against the maximum time the respective tool may be
used, per day.
The uncertainty factor should also be
taken into account when assessing a
risk. The two figures ‘a and ‘K’may
be added together and the resulant
value used to assess the risk.
It should be noted that if a tool is used
under abnormal, or unusual
conditions, then the vibration level
could possibly increase significantly.
Users must always take this into
account and make their own risk
assessment, using the graph as a
reference.
Some tools with a high vibration value, such as impact wrenches, are generally used for a few
seconds at a time, therefore the cumulative time may only be in the order of a few minutes per
day. Nevertheless, the cumulative effect, particularly when added to that of other hand held
power tools that may be used, must always be taken into account when the total daily dose rate is
determined.
