Although the fence may be
tilted in or out for a bevel cut, it is
recommended for safety reasons that the
fence be tilted in toward the operator,
making a cradled cut.
Direction of Grain
Avoid feeding work into the jointer against the
grain. This may result in chipped and splintered
edges. See Figure 44. Feed with the grain to
obtain a smooth surface, as shown in Figure 45.
Skewing (Shear Cutting)
When edging or facing material such as burl or
birds-eye maple, it is not unusual to deface or
mar the surface being finished. This is caused
by the cutterhead knives at times cutting against
the grain. In order to prevent the defacing or
marring of this type wood, it is necessary to
skew the material being worked so that it
crosses the knives at an angle.
The fence will allow for this type of cut:
1. Release the fence locking handle (A, Figure
46) and remove the two hex nuts and
washer (B, Figure 46) holding the fence to
the slide bracket. Remove the fence
assembly.
2. Remove the key (C, Figure 46) from the
fence support. If necessary, use a flat head
screwdriver to pry up one end of the key.
3. Replace the fence assembly at the desired
angle across the cutterhead. See Figure 47.
Secure the fence to the slide bracket with
the hex nuts and washer (B, Figure 46),
then tighten the fence locking handle (A,
Figure 46).
NOTE: When placing the fence assembly back
into normal position, be sure to first install the
key into its slot.
