Checking Outfeed
Table Alignment
The cutterhead knives MUST be level with the
outfeed table when they are at top dead cen-
ter (their highest point during rotation) or the
workpiece cannot be fed across the jointer safe-
ly.
To check the outfeed table alignment:
1. DISCONNECT JOINTER FROM POWER!
2. Place a straightedge on the outfeed table so it
extends over the cutterhead. For best results,
use a straightedge that will stand on edge
without having to be held in place.
3. Rotate the cutterhead under the straightedge
until one of the knives is at top dead center, as
illustrated in Figure 16.
—If your cutterhead knives brush the straight-
edge and move it slightly (
back when you turn the cutterhead, then no
adjustments are necessary.
—If the knives fall below the straightedge
and do not move it, or if the knives lift the
straightedge and move it more than
knives must be adjusted.
