OPERATIONS (cont.)
JOINTING AN EDGE
This is the most common operation for the jointer. These cuts are made to square an edge of a
work piece that already has one flat face to rest against the fence. Set the fence square with the
table. Depth of cut should be the minimum required to obtain a straight edge. Hold the flat face
your previously machined against the fence and downward with a push block throughout the feed.
See FIG 28
