• Always disable power tools when not in use
by switching off the tool and removing the
power cord from the Triton switchbox.
OPERATING
The Triton Biscuit Joiner (BJA300) can be used with or
without the sliding guide fitted. The sliding guide can be
used on either side of the workpiece and reversed for 45°
or 90° joints.

Cutter height adjustment
Adjust the height of the cutter above the router plate by
using the height adjustment mechanism of your router. It
is not normally necessary to exactly centre the cuts on the
edge or end of the wood, but make sure you have at least
3mm of material on either side of the biscuit (Fig.7). As
long as you always lay your wood with the good (or seen)
face down on the table, the slots in matching pieces will
always line up perfectly. This is especially important if the
pieces of wood vary slightly in thickness.

• Always keep children and pets out of the
workshop, especially when you are operating
power tools.
Sighting up cuts
If you have marked your wood for the position of the
centre of each biscuit, line up your pencil marks with the
central lines marked on the windows and the top of the
main body. (Fig. 8). You don't have to be very accurate
in lining up cuts - the biscuits are designed to move
sideways a little in their slots. You can also safely elongate
the slots. Use the two reference lines on the top of the
main body, on either side of the central line.
