A. Outfeed Table: Supports workpiece after it
passes over cutterhead.
B. Cutterhead Guard: Shields cutterhead for
operator safety during operation. Cutterhead
guard is under spring tension—it must (unless
blocked) snap forward to hit the fence. DO
NOT operate jointer if guard is not functioning
properly.
C. Fence: Supports workpiece laterally as it
moves across cutterhead; determines angle
of cut when edge or bevel jointing.
D. Infeed Table: Supports workpiece as it is
pushed across cutterhead. The height of the
infeed table relative to the cutterhead deter-
mines the depth of the cut.
E. Depth-of-Cut Adjustment Knob: This knob
adjusts height of infeed table, controlling
depth of cut. Best results are achieved by lim-
iting maximum depth to
ing and
" when surface planing. You can

set depth of cut precisely with this adjustment
knob. To determine depth of stock cutterhead
will remove from your workpiece, place a
straightedge across outfeed table and use a
ruler to measure the gap between straight-
edge and infeed table.

ON/OFF Switch: This paddle switch starts
and stops 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 jointer work area. This
prevents unsupervised persons in your shop
(especially children) from starting jointer.
G. Dust Collection Chute and Bag: This
assembly collects debris from workpiece as
it is cut. The internal fan—powered by the
motor—pulls debris away from cutterhead
and blows it through chute into bag.
Figure 4. G0725 parts and controls (rear).
H. Fence Bracket Assembly: The various parts
of this assembly let you change the position
of the fence relative to the tables and secure
it in position during operation.
I.
Fence Tilting Handle: Lets you change
angle of fence and lock it at angle desired.
The fence can be quickly set to 90° (per-
pendicular to tables), 45° inward, and 45°
outward by setting and using fence stops on
bracket assembly.
J.
Fence Sliding Handle: This handle locks
position of fence across the tables. ALWAYS
firmly tighten sliding handle before you begin
operations. The position of fence determines
maximum width of cut as you pass workpiece
over cutterhead.
