Ok so been dominoing away some boards that I was joining and seem to have got some titebond into one of the pop out tabs on my domino.

It still pops out if I use a small screwdriver, so not totally glued solid, but doesn't pop in and out smoothly.

Any ideas on best way to fix this? Don't know if I can dissolve the glue with something or if easy enough to remove these tabs and clean up?
 
In case you can see the glue: Remove the fence, deep freeze is to make the glue brittle, brush if off.
In case you cant see the glue: Disassemble, then do the cold treatment.

That's what I would do with my machine out of warranty.
 
I'd second Gregor's suggestion.  I've used a mixture of acetone and vinegar to get Titebond off clamps rails.  It takes a long soak but it does help - I use a "blind" copper tube held vertically. 

However any such solvent that stands a chance of attacking Titebond is almost certain to dissolve or otherwise ruin the paddle by making it sticky.

If all else fails, I'm sure the paddles are available as spares if you get really stuck (excuse the pun).
