Opposite face of workpiece is surface planed
flat with thickness planer.
3. Edge Joint on Jointer—Concave edge of

•
Use the full width of the planer. Alternate
between the left, the right, and the middle
when feeding narrower lumber into the planer.
Your knives will remain sharp much longer.

Jointer Specific Rules:
•
Always joint with cupped side of workpiece
facing down, otherwise workpiece could rock
during cut, increasing likelihood of kickback.
• Make sure your workpiece exceeds the mini-
mum dimension requirements (see Figures
25 & 26) before edge jointing or surface plan-
ing, or it may break or kick back during the
operation!
