A. Position the workpieces as they are to be assembled and layout
biscuit locations on the outside of the joint.
B. Set up tool by first setting fence angle to 90°. Make the fence
adjustment such that the biscuit is located toward the inside of the
joint where the material is thicker, then select the biscuit size so that
the blade does not protrude through the outside wall when the cut
is made (see Figure 26).
C. Clamp the workpiece and align the tool as shown in Figure 27.
NOTE: Reverse 45˚bevel allows outside registration on miter joints.
The tool is trgistered against the outside surface. (Fig. 28)
D. Turn on the tool and make the plunge cut.
E. Glue, assemble and clamp the joint.
F. For joints other than 90° see outside registration column Figure 30
for proper fence angle setting.
The above method will produce a joint where the outside surfaces of
the joint are aligned. If you wish to produce a joint where the inside
surfaces are aligned, use the following procedures for a 90° joint.
A. Position workpieces as they are to be assembled.
B. Layout biscuit locations on the inside of the angle.
C. Set up tool by setting fence angle to 45°. Set vertical fence
adjustment so that the biscuit is located toward the inside of the joint
where material is thicker. Select biscuit size so that
the blade does not protrude through the outside face of
the material.
D. Clamp the workpiece and align the tool as shown in Figure 29.
E. Make the plunge cut and repeat for all biscuit locations.
F. Glue, assemble and clamp the joint.
G. For joints other than 90° see inside registration column in Figure
30 for proper fence angle setting.
