ASSEMBLY
Step 1:
Fit the Outer Bearings (H) to the Sliding Insert (A)
using the M6 x 20 Screws (I) and M6 Hex Nuts
(J) as shown. Ensure they are fitted on the same
side of the slider as the three small holes. Fit the
Inner Bearings (K) to the Sliding Insert using the
M6 x 45 Screws (L) and M6 Flange Nuts (M). Do
not completely tighten at this stage. All bearings
should be parallel to the sides of the sliding
insert.
Fit the Bosses (O) from beneath the two central
holes in the sliding insert and attach the Main
Body (B) to the sliding insert by tightening the
M6 x 30 Hex Bolts (P) and Washers (Q) through
the captive nuts in the main body.
Loosen off the depth stop screws on the
underneath of the sliding insert to allow
approximately 29mm movement of the spring-
loaded plunger. (Fig.4)
Step 2:
Slide the zinc locking pin on the underside of the
main body to the central 'lock' position.
Fit the sliding insert into the router table tracks
by locating the slots on the inner bearings onto
the flange on the aluminium inner track. Now
firmly tighten the inner bearing screws and
check that the sliding insert slides smoothly. If
there is any float between the aluminium inner
track and the inner bearings, loosen the screws,
twist the bearing slightly and re-tighten.
The lock pin on the main body should locate
in the slot on the router plate. In use: When
a safety guard is depressed the lock pin is
released, allowing the fence to slide in the
direction the guard is depressed. The fence will
automatically spring back to its central position.
Note: If the fence does not freely spring back,
loosen the fit of the inner bearings against the
GB
aluminium track, or spray the track with spray
lubricant.
Screw the Inner Clamp Knobs (N) onto the inner
bearing screws (they cut their own thread).
In use: When fitting or removing the sliding
insert the cut-away edges of the clamps must
face toward the inner track. During operation
turn the cut-away edges away from the inner
Assembly

track. Do not over-tighten, the sliding insert
should be held down free to slide.
Check that the biscuit joiner is level with, or
slightly above, the table surface and if necessary
to remove it and adjust the height of the
aluminum inner track on the router table.
Step 3:
Remove the Biscuit Joiner Cutter (C) from its
storage position in the end of the main body.
If you have a

(D) from its storage position in the end of the

screwdriver. Unbolt the cutting disc from the

the

Remove the biscuit joiner from the table. Fit the
large insert ring, supplied with the router table,
to the router plate. Tighten the cutter firmly into
the router collet.
Adjust the cutter height so that there is 5-7mm
clearance between the underside of the cutter
and the router plate. Make sure the router's
height adjustment is securely locked before use.
Step 4:
Familiarise yourself with the Notched and Slotted
Windows (E & F). They reduce the risk of finger
entry into the cutter zone and improve saw dust
extraction. The windows are reversible so that
the two sets cover the full range of cutter height
adjustment from 5-25mm above the table.
The cutter should never be set any higher than
25mm above the router plate. (Fig.1)
To remove the windows push outwards, from the
inside, near each side of the window.

When re-fitting, use the safety guards to push
them fully home. Store the unused pair of
windows in the holes provided on the sliding
guide.
For the next few steps, fit the notched windows
(with the '5-10' designation reading right way up)
to both sides of the main body by inserting them
into slots beside each window opening. Use the
safety guards to push them fully home. (Fig.2)

Step 5:
Fit the biscuit joiner back onto the table.

With the power cord disconnected, push in the
safety guards and check that the cutter clears
the guards and the plastic windows.
At full extension the cutter should protrude
13mm from the face of each window (Fig.3). Use
a screwdriver to adjust the depth stop screws
on the underside of the sliding insert, inward or
outward, until 13mm is achieved (Fig.4). In use:
You can adjust the stops to limit the travel for
shallower slots in thin material, using cut down
biscuits.
Step 6:
Fit the Sliding Guide Clamp (R) to the Sliding
Guide (G), using a Coach Bolt (S) and Round Knob
(T).
With the knob loosened, you can slide the guide
on and off the main body. Tightening the knob
locks the guide to the main body (Fig.5)

Dust Extraction
The biscuit joiner has been designed for use with
a vacuum cleaner for sawdust extraction. It can
be used without dust extraction, but you will need
to lift the main body after every 20-30 cuts to
clean out accumulated shavings.
While any vacuum cleaner can be used, domestic
(bag-type) units can fill up very quickly. For a
much larger capacity, we recommend fitting a
Triton Dust Collector (DCA300) to your vacuum
cleaner.
Screw the vacuum hose (left-hand thread),
supplied with your router table, onto the dust port
at the end of the main body and plug the wand of
your vacuum cleaner into the hose adaptor.
Power Connection Warning
The combined electrical load of your router and
vacuum cleaner may exceed the rated amperage
of your domestic extension lead or power outlet.
Therefore you should connect your vacuum
cleaner and router to separate outlets, and switch
Fig.3
on both appliances separately.
Safety
• Always work in a well lit, uncluttered
environment.
• Always wear safety glasses and hearing
protection.
• Make sure the Router Table is securely locked
Fig.4
down to your Workcentre or Router Stand.
• Always switch off the power and/or disconnect
the power cord when fitting or adjusting the
cutter or raising the main body.
• Always keep hands clear of the cutter
apertures in the main body and never operate
