figure 32. dust hose attached to dust port.
To connect the machine to a dust collector:
1. Fit a 4" dust hose that is connected to a dust
collector over the dust port, as shown in
figure 32, and secure in place with a hose
clamp.
2. tug the hose to make sure it does not come
off.
Note: A tight fit is necessary for proper
performance.

the outfeed table height must be level with the
knives when they are at top-dead-center. if the
outfeed table is set too low, the workpiece will be
tapered from front to back. if the outfeed table
is set too high, the workpiece will hit the edge of
the outfeed table during operation, increasing the
chance of kickback.
To set the outfeed table height:
1. disConneCt Jointer From poWer!
2. move the cutterhead guard out of the way or
remove it, and open the rear access panel.
3. place a straightedge on the outfeed table so
it extends over the cutterhead and rotate the
cutterhead pulley until one of the knives is at
top-dead-center (tdC) (see
figure 33).
4. When correctly set, the knife will just touch
the straightedge when the knife is at its high-
est point of rotation (see
figure 34), and the
straightedge should move

Dust collection
Recommended cfM at Dust port: 400 cfM
Do not confuse this CFM recommendation with
the rating of the dust collector. To determine the
CFM at the dust port, you must consider these
variables: (1) CFM rating of the dust collector,
(2) hose type and length between the dust col-
lector and the machine, (3) number of branches
or wyes, and (4) amount of other open lines
throughout the system. Explaining how to cal-
culate these variables is beyond the scope of
this manual. Consult an expert or purchase a
good dust collection "how-to" book.
This machine creates substantial amounts
of dust during operation. Breathing air-
borne dust on a regular basis can result in
permanent respiratory illness. Reduce your
risk by wearing a respirator and capturing
the dust with a dust collection system.
