Depth-of-Cut Scale
The depth of cut can be referenced directly from
the depth scale located on the front of the jointer
(see Figure 24).
Note: The depth scale can be calibrated or
"zeroed" if it is not accurate. (Refer to Calibrating
Depth-of-Cut Scale on Page 51.)
The infeed table has three positive stop bolts (see
Figure 25) that allow you to quickly adjust the
infeed table between finish/final cuts and shaping/
heavy cuts, and the maximum depth of cut of
1
⁄2"
(or less) when rabbeting.
To adjust infeed positive stop bolts:
1. DISCONNECT MACHINE FROM POWER!
2. Loosen jam nuts on both stop bolts (see
Figure 25).
3. Raise table to minimum desired depth of
cut, then tighten top height stop bolt (see
Figure 25) until it contacts table. Tighten jam
nut to secure stop bolt in position.
4. Lower table to maximum desired depth of cut,
then tighten bottom height stop bolt until it
contacts table. Tighten jam nut to secure stop
bolt in position.
Note: If you need to lower the infeed table
more than
1
⁄8", then pull and hold the table
release knob (see Figure 23) while lowering
infeed table.

The positive stop bolts control the top and bot-
tom range of table movement. Jam nuts lock the
positive stop bolts in position so they will not move
during operation.
We recommend setting the bottom height stop
bolt at
1
⁄2". The top height stop can be set any-
where between 0" and
1
⁄16". The
1
⁄8" stop bolt is
factory set and should not be adjusted unless
calibration is necessary.
