ADJUSTING FENCE POSITIVE STOPS

The fence on the jointer is equipped with positive stops at 90 degrees and 45
degrees right and left.

90 DEGREE POSITIVE STOP

To check the accuracy of the positive stops, position the fence at 90 degrees to
the table by making certain the end of index pin (A) Fig. 17, is engaged in notch
in the index collar (B) as shown, and tighten lockhandle (C). Place a square (D)
Fig. 18, on the jointer table and against the fence (E).

If an adjustment is necessary, proceed as follows: 

1. Loosen set screw (F) Fig. 19, in the index collar and loosen the fence locking

handle (C).

2. Tilt the fence (E) Fig. 19, until you are certain the fence is 90 degrees to the

table surface; tighten lockhandle (C) and set screw (F).

3. Set the angle of tilt scale (G) Fig. 19, to the proper degree mark by loosening

screw (H) and adjusting the pointer.

45 DEGREE INWARD POSITIVE STOP

To check the accuracy of the positive stops at 45 degree inward angle tilt,
position the fence (E) Fig. 20, inward as far as possible. Use a combination
square (D), and check to see if the fence is tilted inward accurately at 45
degrees. If an adjustment is necessary, proceed as follows:

1. Loosen lockhandle (C) Fig. 20.

2. Loosen locknut (A) Fig. 21, and turn adjustment screw (B) until the fence (E)

is set accurately at 45 degrees to the table surface.

3. Retighten locknut (A) Fig. 21.
