UNPACKING AND CLEANING THE JOINTER

Carefully unpack the jointer and all loose items from the carton. Remove the
protective coating from the machined surfaces of the jointer. This coating may be
removed with a soft cloth moistened with kerosene ( do not use acetone, gasoline,
or lacquer thinner for this purpose). After cleaning, cover all unpainted surfaces
with a good quality paste wax.

ASSEMBLING JOINTER TO STAND

If the jointer is to be used with the stand shown in Fig. 4, the outfeed end of the
jointer is to be at the same end of the stand as the dust chute (A) Fig. 4. Line up
the four holes (B) Fig. 5, on the top of the stand with the four threaded holes on the
bottom of the jointer base and fasten the jointer to the stand using the four 1” long
cap screws and lock washers supplied.

If the jointer is to be used without the stand shown in Fig. 4, we recommend that
the jointer be fastened to a supporting surface using the four threaded holes in the
jointer base.  IMPORTANT: Care must be taken that an opening is provided in the
supporting surface to facilitate the removal of wood chips. NOTE: If the motor is
going to be located below the jointer an opening must also be provided for the belt.

ASSEMBLING FENCE

1. Assemble the fence carriage (A) Fig. 6, and fence sliding bracket (B) to the

jointer base using the two 1-3/16” long socket head cap screws and washers (C).
NOTE: The top surface (D) Fig. 7, of the fence carriage (A) must be level with
the top surface of the outfeed table (E), to enable the fence to slide easily.

2.  Remove the two cap screws (F) Fig. 7.
