• Walls may conceal wiring and piping, car body panels may conceal fuel lines, and long grass may
conceal stones and glass. Always check the work area thoroughly before proceeding
Beware of projected waste
• In some situations, waste material may be projected at speed from the cutting tool. It is the user's
responsibility to ensure that other people in the work area are protected from the possibility of
projected waste
Fitting cutting tools
• Ensure cutting tools are correctly and securely fitted and check that wrenches / adjusters are
removed prior to use
• Only use cutting tools recommended for your machine
• Do not attempt to modify cutting tools
• Ensure blades are sharp, in good condition and correctly fitted
• Do not attempt to re-sharpen blades that are not suitable for re-sharpening. These may include
specially hardened blades or blades made from hardened alloys typically containing tungsten
• Blades that can be re-sharpened should be re-sharpened only according to the blade
manufacturer's instructions. These may include a limited number of times the blade can be
re-sharpened
• Sharpened blades should be more thoroughly inspected before use and replaced immediately if
there is any doubt about their condition and suitability for use
• In the event blades encounter an embedded object in use that the blades are not suitable for,
blades should be replaced immediately
Direction of feed
• Always feed work into the blade or cutter against the direction of movement of the blade or cutter
Beware of heat
• Cutting tools and workpieces may become hot in use. Do not attempt to change tools until they
have been allowed to cool completely
Control dust / swarf
• Do not allow dust or swarf to build up. Sawdust is a fire hazard, and some metal
swarf is explosive
• Be especially careful when cutting wood and metal. Sparks from metal cutting are a common
cause of wood dust fires
• Where possible, use a dust extraction system to ensure a safer working environment
Avoiding motor burnout
Note: Biscuit jointers are designed to work under load. Provided the motor is cooled quickly,
minimal wear or damage will occur.
• DO NOT over work the tool.
• If the tool emits a burning smell, DO NOT stop the tool; instead, remove from load and allow to
spin freely for approximately 5-10 seconds at high speed to cool the motor before continuing
work.
• Repeat the removal of the tool from load intermittently to keep the tool cool during use.
If a tool is slowing down on sticky material whilst under load:
1. Check the correct accessory type is being used.
2. Make shallower passes across the material.

Dust extraction
• For the best possible dust extraction, this tool should be connected to a vacuum cleaner or a
workshop dust extraction system via its Dust Extraction Port (9)
• If both are unavailable, the supplied Dust Collection Bag (10) needs to be fitted to the tool
• Attach the Bag to the tool by pushing it on to the Dust Extraction Port

when working with this tool.
Adjusting the cutting depth
WARNING: Failure to correctly adjust the plunging depth could cause damage to the tool and
workpiece.
1. Rotate the Plunge Depth Selector (14), to set the required cutting depth
Note: Check the accuracy of the Depth Selector by carrying out a test cut on a scrap piece of material
(see 'Making a cut). Recalibrate if necessary (see 'Calibrating the plunge depth')
Fine adjustment of cutting depth
• Fine adjustment of the cutting depth can be made using the Depth Calibration Knob (15)
1. Loosen the retaining nut with a suitable spanner
2. Turn the Depth Adjustment Knob to adjust as required
