Edge.Jointing
Edge jointing (see
Figure
23
) produces a flat and true
surface along the side of a workpiece by removing uneven
areas. It is an essential step for squaring up warped or
rough stock and when preparing a workpiece for joinery
or finishing.
1.
Inspect stock to ensure it is safe and suitable for the
operation (refer to
Stock.Inspection
on
Page.
21).
2.
Surface plane workpiece (refer to
Surface.Planing
on
Page.24
).
3.
Set infeed table height to desired cutting depth for
each pass.
.CAUTION:.
To minimize risk of kickback, do not
exceed a cutting depth of
1
⁄
8
" per pass.
4.
Set fence to 90°.
5.
Start jointer.
6.
Place workpiece firmly against fence and infeed
table with concave side facing down, as shown in
Figure.23
.
CAUTION:.
To ensure workpiece remains stable
during cut, concave sides of workpiece must face
toward table and fence.
7.
Feed workpiece completely across cutterhead while
keeping it firmly against fence and tables during the
entire cut.
CAUTION:.
Keep hands at least 4" away from
cutterhead during the entire cut. Instead of allowing
a hand to pass directly over cutterhead, lift it up
and over cutterhead, and safely reposition it on the
outfeed side to continue supporting workpiece. Use
push blocks whenever practical to further reduce
risk of accidental hand contact with cutterhead.
8.
Repeat
Step.6
until the entire edge is flat.
Tip:.
When squaring up stock, cut opposite edge of
workpiece with a table saw instead of the jointer—
otherwise, both edges of workpiece will not be
parallel with each other.
