A. Outfeed Table: Supports the workpiece after
it passes over the cutterhead.
B. Cutterhead Guard: Shields the cutterhead
for operator safety during operation. The
cutterhead guard is under spring tension—
it must (unless blocked) snap forward to hit
the fence. DO NOT operate the jointer if the
guard is not functioning properly.
C. Fence: The fence guides the workpiece
uniformly over the cutterhead at the desired
angle.

of the infeed table relative to the cutterhead
determines the depth of the cut.

You can set the depth of cut precisely with
this adjustment knob. To determine the depth
of stock the cutterhead will remove from your
workpiece, place a straightedge across the
outfeed table and use a ruler to measure the
gap between the straightedge and the infeed
table.
ON/OFF Switch: This paddle switch starts
and stops the cutterhead rotation. The yellow
part of the switch is a safety device. When it
is removed (by pulling it out), the switch locks
in the OFF position. Always remove this yel-
low key before leaving the jointer work area.
This prevents unsupervised persons in your
shop (especially children) from starting the
jointer.
assembly collects debris from the workpiece
as it is cut. The internal fan—powered by the
motor—pulls debris away from the cutterhead
and blows it through the chute into the bag.
of this assembly let you change the position
of the fence relative to the tables and secure
it in position during operation.
Fence Tilting Handle: Lets you change the
angle of the fence and lock it at the angle
desired. The fence can be quickly set to 90°
(perpendicular to the tables), 45° inward, and
45° outward by setting and using the fence
stops on the bracket assembly.
Fence Sliding Handle: This handle locks
the position of the fence across the tables.
ALWAYS firmly tighten the sliding handle
before you begin operations. The position of
the fence determines the maximum width of
the cut as you pass the workpiece over the
cutterhead.
