OPERATING CONTROLS AND ADJUSTMENTS
6” JOINTER
STARTING AND STOPPING JOINTER
The On/Off switch (A) Fig. 24, is located on the top side brace of the
stand. To turn the machine “ON”, move the switch (A) to the up
position. To turn the machine “OFF”, move the switch (A) to the down
position.
LOCKING SWITCH IN THE “OFF” POSITION
We suggest that when the jointer is not in use, the switch should be
locked in the “OFF” position. This can be done by grasping the switch
toggle (B) Fig. 25, and pulling it out of the switch as shown. With the
switch toggle (B) removed, the switch will not operate. However,
should the switch toggle be removed while the machine is running, it
can be turned “OFF”once, but cannot be restarted without inserting
the switch toggle (B).
INFEED TABLE ADJUSTMENTS
1. To raise or lower the infeed table, loosen table lock handle (A) Fig.
26, turn the table raising and lowering handwheel (B) until the table
is at the desired position and tighten table lock handle (A).
2.
NOTE:
When raising or lowering the infeed table a plunger
located on other end of index stop (C) Fig. 27, automatically stops
the table at 1/8˝ depth of cut. To move the table past this point it is
necessary to pull out index stop (C) and move the table up or down.
IMPORTANT:
Always make sure table lock handle (A) is tightened
before operation. The table lock handle (A) is spring-loaded and can
be repositioned by pulling out the handle and repositioning it on
the serrated nut located under the handle.
3. The depth of cut of the infeed table (position of table in relationship
with the cutting circle) can be read with the pointer (D) Fig. 27, and
scale (E). Maximum table depth adjustment with this 6˝ jointer is
1/2˝.
