RABBETING
RABBET!NG is known as cutting out a section of the
corner of a piece of material, across an end or atong
an edge.
To make a RABBET requires cuts which do not go ai!
the way through the material Therefore the blade
guard must be removed.
1. Remove blade guard.
2. For rabbeting along an edge (long way of work-
piece) as shown, add facing to rip fence approxi-
mately as high as the workpiece is wide. Adjust
rip fence and blade to required dimensions; then
make first cut with board fiat on table as any rip
(type) cut; make second cut with workpiece on
edge. Follow all precautions, safety instructions,
and operational instructions as for ripping, or rip
type operations, including feather boards and
push stick, etc.
3. For rabbeting across an end, for workpiece 10-
1/2': and narrower make the rabbet cut with the
board fiat on the table. Using the miter gauge
fitted with a facing, follow the same procedures
and instructions for cross cutting making succes-
sive cuts across the width of the workpiece to
obtain the desired width of cut. DO NOT use the
rip fence for rabbeting across the end.
I WARNING: For your own safety, Install blade I
guard immediately upon _mpletlon of rabbeting
I
operation.
Rabbet cuts can also be made in one pass of the
workpiece over the cutter using the dado head or mold-
ing head.
