Bevel.Cutting
Bevel cuts (see
Figure
24
) can be made by setting the
fence at the desired angle and feeding the workpiece
firmly along the fence face, with the bottom inside corner
firmly against the table. The cutting process typically
requires multiple passes or cuts to bevel the entire edge
of a workpiece.
To.bevel.cut.on.jointer,.do.these.steps:
1.
Inspect stock to ensure it is safe and suitable for the
operation (refer to
Stock.Inspection
on

2.
Surface plane workpiece (refer to
Surface.Planing
on
Page.24
).
3.
Edge joint workpiece (refer to
Edge.Jointing
on
Page.25
).
4.
Set
infeed table height to cutting depth desired for
each pass.
CAUTION:
Cutting depth for bevel cuts is
typically between
1
⁄
16
" and
1
⁄
8
", depending on
hardness and width of stock.
5.
Set fence tilt to desired angle of cut.
6.
Place workpiece against fence and infeed table.
7.
Start jointer.
8.
With
a push block in your leading hand, press
workpiece against table and fence with firm
pressure, and feed workpiece over cutterhead with a
push block in your trailing hand.
CAUTION:.
When your leading hand gets within
4" of the cutterhead, lift it up and over cutterhead,
and place push block on portion of the workpiece
once it is 4" past cutterhead. Now, focus your
pressure on outfeed end of the workpiece while
feeding, and repeat same action with your trailing
hand when it gets within 4" of cutterhead. To help
keep your hands safe, DO NOT let them get closer
than 4" from moving cutterhead at any time during
operation!
