Buffer Pads
The polyethylene buffer pads (shown in Figure
20) have slots through which they are secured
to the fences by screws. These buffer pads at
times may need to be re-positioned; for
example, if a clamping bar is adjusted for a
different thickness of workpiece, the buffer pad
may need to be adjusted out of the way to
prevent obstructing the clamping bar.
To adjust a buffer pad, loosen the two hex cap
screws (Figure 20) with a 13mm wrench. Slide
the buffer pad as necessary. Retighten both hex
cap screws when finished.
Cutter Height
This adjustment will change the height of the
tails on the tenon (male) cut, and how deep the
mortise (female) cut goes into the thickness of
the workpiece.
1. Disconnect machine from power source.
2. Loosen the spindle lock screw (Figure 21)
by turning it counterclockwise with a 6mm
hex wrench.
3. Turn the spindle height adjust screw (Figure
19) with a 5.5mm hex wrench, either
clockwise to raise the cutter (decrease the
cutter depth), or counterclockwise to lower
the cutter (increase the cutter depth).
4. Tighten spindle lock screw by turning it
clockwise.
Mortise Depth
This adjustment ensures that the side pieces of
your drawer will remain flush with the front and
back pieces of the drawer. The correct fit will
have the sides flush with the front and back of
the drawer, without showing any of the mortise
cut on the inside of the drawer.
The mortise depth adjust bolt, shown in Figure
19, limits how far forward the cutting unit will go,
and thus limits the length of your mortise cut.
1. Disconnect machine from power source.
2. Loosen the hex nut on the mortise depth
adjust bolt (Figure 21) by turning the hex nut
counterclockwise with a 17mm wrench.
3. To decrease the depth of the mortise
(female) cut, turn the bolt clockwise. To
increase the depth of the mortise cut, turn
the bolt counterclockwise.
4. Re-tighten the hex nut.
