ASSEMBLY & ADJUSTMENTS

WARNING! Do not plug in or turn on the tool until it is fully assembled according to these instructions.

Failure to follow the safety instructions may result in serious personal injury.

ADJUST THE DEPTH OF CUT

The depth of cut is adjusted by the relative positioning of the

infeed table with respect to the cutterhead. The infeed table (Fig.

9 - 1) can be raised or lowered using the infeed adjustment knob

(Fig. 9 - 2). Turning the knob counterclockwise will raise the

infeed table, causing less wood to be removed from the work-

piece, as seen on the depth of cut scale (Fig. 9 - 3). Turning the

hand wheel clockwise will lower the infeed table, causing more

wood to be removed from the workpiece. Always make sure that

the front lock knob (Fig. 9 - 4) is loosened before changing the

depth of cut and tightened after the desired change has been

made so that the depth of cut does not differ between cuts. Do

not make jointing cuts deeper than 1/8 of an inch.

NOTE: For a smooth ﬁnish, it is recommended to do multiple passes at a lower depth. We recommend using a depth

of 1/32”. Always using a depth of 1/8” will shorten the lifespan of your jointer and give you a rougher ﬁnish.

BEVEL THE FENCE

NOTE: The fence can easily be set to 0° and 45° using the limit stops (Fig. 10 - 2) on the fence. However, it is always

advisable to check the angles with a piece of scrap wood before jointing your ﬁnal workpiece. Adjust the set screws

that act as limit stops if they are not exact or have moved from shipping or use.

The fence can be positioned to joint the wood at any angle from 0° to 45°.

1. Before adjusting the fence’s angle, make sure that the unit is unplugged and the power switch is in the OFF posi-

tion.

2. Turn the fence bevel handle counterclockwise to loosen it. If you ﬁnd it necessary to reposition the handle in order

to loosen it, pull it outwards, turn the handle to the new position, and release it.

3. Manually tilt the fence to desired angle; use an angle gauge block (not included) to see the current angle.

4. Once the desired angle has been achieved, tighten the bevel handle.

ADJUST AND LEVEL THE TABLE (CONT.)

6. When both the infeed and outfeed tables are aligned with the blades, lay the straightedge across the infeed and

outfeed tables to ensure that they are level. If the tables are not perfectly aligned, tune the outfeed table to the infeed

table using step 4 above to adjust the level of the table.
