TO MAKE RABBET CUTS
See Figure 11.
Follow the directions in the “Planing” section earlier in
this manual. Hold the edge guide firmly against the edge
of the work surface.
The depth of the rabbet is determined by the depth of the
cut and the number of passes made along the work
surface. The maximum depth of the rabbet cut is
7/16 in. (11.1 mm) and has to be cut in 3/32 in. (2.4 mm)
passes, or less, to reach the desired depth. The width of
the rabbet cut is adjustable by moving the edge guide.
