H7583 Tenoning Jig
MAKE SURE the blade clearance is adjusted
correctly! DO NOT adjust the work support
plate any closer than
1
⁄8" from the saw blade.
If the blade contacts the work support plate,
severe injury may occur. If the blade must
be closer than
1
⁄8" for special circumstances,
fasten a block of wood through the holes in
the work support plate to prevent the saw
blade from contacting the jig.
5. Slide the jig back to the base stop, place the
workpiece on the base stop, and clamp the
workpiece against spacer block and back
stop as shown in
Figure 20.
4. Cut a back stop backup board and screw it to
the back stop as shown in
Figure 19.

6. Slide the jig up next to the saw blade, and use
the major and micro adjustments (
Figure 21)
to line up the layout lines on the workpiece
with the saw blade.
Note: The major adjustment sleeve allows
for quick adjustment of the jig positioning,
and the micro adjustment knob fine tunes the
quick adjustment that was made.
