Adjusting Gibs

The function of the table gibs is to eliminate
excessive play in the table movement. The gibs
also control how easy it will be to move the tables
up and down.
To adjust the table gibs:
1.
Using a 10mm wrench, loosen the two outfeed
table gib nuts on the side of the jointer base
(Figure 78).

2.
Using a 3mm hex wrench, evenly tighten the
gib setscrews a small amount, then check the
table by moving it up and down. Adjust the
setscrews as needed until the friction of the
table movement is balanced between mini-
mal play and ease of movement.
Note: Tighter gibs reduce play but make it
harder to adjust the tables.
3.
Repeat Steps 1-2 with the other table.
4.
Set the outfeed table height as described in
Setting Outfeed Table Height on Page 26.
