10.7 Beveling
To cut a bevel, lock the fence at the required
angle and run the work piece across the knives
while keeping it firmly against the fence and
tables. Several passes may be necessary to
achieve the desired result.
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.

Avoid feeding work into the jointer against the
grain. This may result in chipped and splintered
edges. See Figure 10-6. Feed with the grain to
obtain a smooth surface, as shown in Figure 10-
