OPERATION
MAKING A RABBET CUT
See Figure 38.
Rabbeting is very similar to jointing except that only part of
the edge is jointed.
WARNING:
Never remove the cutter head guard when
performing any operation. Failure to heed this
warning could result in serious personal injury.
 Hold the workpiece firmly against the fence. Do not make
cuts greater than 1/8 in.
 To make a deeper rabbet, make cuts in 1/8 in. deep
increments. Because the workpiece is supported by the
outfeed table during a rabbet cut, the infeed table must
be lowered after each pass.
SLIDING FENCE OPERATION
See Figure 39.
WARNING:
Moving parts can injure. Turn jointer/ planer off and
wait for all parts to stop, before adjusting fence.
Failure to do so could cause serious personal injury
from contact with cutter or other moving parts.
When you are not cutting at full width of cut, the fence can
be moved across the jointer/planer to take full advantage of
the "sharpness" of the knives.
When knives are new or freshly sharpened the fence should
be positioned to the extreme rear of outfeed and infeed tables
but not beyond the end of the knives.
Most of the cutting (usually jointing) will be done with the
fence in this position. As the knives become dull, the fence
can be moved toward the guard where the knives are sharper.
To move the fence, turn jointer/planer off, loosen sliding fence
knob, and slide the fence to the desired position.
