WARNING: Always observe the safety instructions and
applicableregulations.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal
injury, turn tool off and disconnect tool from power
source before making any adjustments or removing/

start-up can causeinjury.
Dust Extraction (Fig.J1, J2)
Using the appropriate adapter, you can connect either a dustbag
or a dustextractor.
Dust Extractor
1. Insert the appropriate adapter
13
or
14
into the dust
extraction outlet
5
.
2. Connect the dust extractor hose to theadapter.
Dustbag
1. Insert the straight adapter
13
into the dust extraction
outlet
5
.
2. Attach the dustbag
15
to theadapter.
3. Whenever possible, connect a dust extraction device
designed in accordance with the relevant regulations
regarding dustemission.
Replacing the Blade (Fig.G,H,I)
WARNING:
• Make sure that the teeth of the cutter point in
counterclockwise direction as shown (Fig.H).
• After replacing the blade, always check the cutting
depth and adjust ifnecessary.
• Do not use blades or larger or smaller diameter than
recommended. For the proper blade rating refer to the
technicaldata.
• Use only blades specified in this manual complying
with EN847-1.
1. Remove the four hex screws
12
from the base plate and
take off thecover.
2. Depress the spindle lock
10
and remove the flange by
turning itcounterclockwise.
3. Change theblade.
4. Tighten the flange securely by turning it clockwise while
keeping the spindle lockdepressed.
5. Mount the cover plate and tighten the hexscrews.
Anti-Slipping Pins (Fig.F)
The anti-slipping pins
7
help to reduce the tendency of the
biscuit jointer to slide to the right when cutting. When working
on visible parts of the workpiece, you may want to retract them
in order to avoidscratching.
1. To retract the pins, rotate them slightly clockwise using a
flatscrewdriver.
2. To use the pins again, rotate them slightlycounterclockwise.
Plunge Depth Adjustment (Fig.D)
The plunge depth must be set to match the biscuit size. The
numbers 0, 10and 20on the depth adjusting knob correspond
with the biscuit size. The M represents the maximum cutting
depth of approx. 20mm.
• Turn the depth adjusting knob
8
into the required position,
aligning the appropriate number with the red marking on
thetool.
Plunge Depth Fine Adjustment (Fig.E)
The fine adjustment is used to eliminate possible tolerances in
the size of the biscuitslots.
1. Raise the fence
6
to its upper position as describedabove.
2. Insert the hex screwdriver as shown and adjust the plunge
depth as required by turning the screw (turn clockwise to
decrease the plungedepth).
3. Check the setting by making a trial cut in a piece of
scrapwood.
NOTE: The maximum cutting depth of 20mm is obtainable only
with a new blade and by backing out the fine adjustment screw
(see next section).
2. Set the height adjuster
4
as required. With the fence set to
90°, the scale under the locking knob reads the distance
between the centre of cutter and the surface of thefence.
3. Tighten the lockingknob.
To Set the Fence Angle
1. Slacken the star knob
11
.
2. Tilt the fence into the requiredangle.
3. Tighten the starknob.
The fine adjustment is used to eliminate possible tolerances in
the size of the biscuitslots.
Jointer Base Markings
When working without the fence, for example when making
T-joints, you can use the markings on the jointer base for proper
alignment of thetool.
1. Set the fence to the 0° position as describedabove.
2. For workpieces with a thickness of 19mm, use the edge of
the base as a reference forcentring.
3. For other workpieces, use the red centreline markings to
align thetool.
4. Two of the markings indicate the length of the cut. In order
to prevent breaking through the workpiece, make sure that
the workpiece extends beyond thesemarkings.
