45 DEGREE OUTWARD POSITIVE STOP
To check the accuracy of the positive stops at the 45 degree outward angle of tilt,
position the fence (E) Fig. 22, outward as far as possible. Use a combination
square (D) and check to see if the fence is tilted outward accurately at 45 degrees.
If an adjustment is necessary, proceed as follows:
1. Loosen lockhandle (C) Fig. 22.
2. Loosen locknut (K) Fig. 22, and turn adjustment screw (L) until the fence (E) is
set at 45 degrees with the table surface.
3. Retighten locknut (K) Fig. 22, and lockhandle (C).
INFEED TABLE ADJUSTMENTS
To raise or lower the infeed table, loosen table lockhandle (A) Fig. 23, and move
the table raising and lowering hand lever (B), up or down until the table is at the
desired position and tighten table lockhandle (A). NOTE: The table lockhandle (A)
can be repositioned by pulling out the handle and repositioning it on the serrated
nut located under the handle.The depth of cut of the infeed table (position of table
in relationship with the cutting circle) can be read with the pointer and scale (C)
Fig. 23.
Positive stops are provided on the jointer to limit the height and depth of the infeed
table. To adjust the stops, simply loosen two locknuts (D) and (E) Fig. 24, and turn
the two adjustment screws (F) and (G) as necessary. Retighten locknuts (D) and
(E). We recommend that the height of the infeed table be adjusted so the table at
its highest point will be 1/2mm below the highest point of the cutter inserts. This is
an important feature of your jointer which enables you to rapidly position the
infeed table for a finish or final cut.
OUTFEED TABLE ADJUSTMENTS
For most jointing operations the outfeed table must be exactly level with the
cutter inserts at their highest point of revolution. To move the outfeed table, loosen
lockhandle (A) Fig. 25, and move the table raising and lowering hand lever (B) up
or down until the table is level with the cutter inserts. It may be necessary to adjust
the positive stops. Loosen the two locknuts (C) and (D) Fig. 26, and the two
adjusting screws (E) and (F) when moving the table up or down.
When the table is exactly level with the cutter inserts at the highest point of
revolution, tighten lockhandle (A) Fig. 25, and turn adjusting screw (E) Fig. 26,
until it bottoms; then tighten locknut (C). Screw (F) is also a positive stop for the
lower limit of the outfeed table. We suggest that this stop also be tightened when
the outfeed table is set level with the cutter inserts. This will prevent the outfeed
table from accidentally being lowered.
