BEVELING AND DHAMFERING
⚫
The fence on the jointer/planer is adjustable from45° inward to 45° outward. Adjust the fence to the desired angle and
tighten fence tilting handle.
⚫
Beveling refers to cutting the entire edge of a board at an angle. Beveling may require several passes due to the depth
of cut needed.
⚫
Chamfering refers to removing only the corner of the edge of a board. Normally a chamfer is made on one pass;
USING AVACUME HOSE
A standard dust collection hose can be attached to the exhaust port (60.5mm.) under the outfeed table.
Jointer will perform properly at all depths of cuts up to 3mm when used with a dust collecting system.
To attach a dust collecting system:
•
Insert the dust collection hose to the exhaust port on the rear of the jointer.
•
Turn the dust collecting system on.
•
Turn the jointer on.
•
Periodically replace/empty bag in dust collecting system.
MAINTENANCE
WARNING:
Turn the planer off and unplug from the power source before proceeding to do any maintenance work.
CHECKING FOR WORN BLADES
Condition of blades will affect precision of cut. If blade wear is not observed when checking the blade height, the quality of cut
will indicate the blade condition, dull blades will tear rather than sever wood fiber. A raised grain will occur when dull blades
pound on wood where there is a difference in density. A raised ridge will be produced where the blades have been nicked.
SHARPENING BLADES
If blades are nicked they must be replaced or reground, they can be reground several times until they become 21 mm side.
NOTE: many shops do not have capabilities to resurface blades. Never install unbalance blades or blades reground less
than 21 mm wide.
REPLACING BLADES
Unplug the planer from power source, block the blade guard from closing, loosen and remove the four blade lock screws
securing the blade and blade clamp, lift blade and blade clamp from cutter head, clean any sawdust and resin buildup from
cutter head and blade clamp, place the new blade against the blade clamp and replace in cutter head. Secure blade and
