Page 15: Assembly
W1755 6" Parallelogram Jointer Assembly To assemble the jointer, do these steps: 1. Carefully lay the stand on its side so you can access the underside. 2. Use the M8-1.25 x 50 hex bolt and 8mm flat washer to bolt the wheel assembly to the stand, as shown in Figure 9. - Page 16 7. Loosen the motor bracket bolts shown by the black arrows in Figure 12. 8. Put the V-belt on the motor pulley, then roll it onto the cutterhead pulley, as shown in Figure 13. 9. Check the alignment of the pulleys to make sure the V-belt is straight up and down.
- Page 17 W1755 6" Parallelogram Jointer 15. Install the belt guard with the two M6-1 x 10 flange bolts, M6-1 hex nuts, and 6mm flat washers, as shown in Figure 15. The belt guard MUST be installed or the moving V- belt will be exposed, creating an entanglement haz- ard at the back of the jointer.

W1755 6" Parallelogram Jointer 29. Test that the cutterhead guard is working correctly by pulling it back and letting go. The cutterhead guard should quickly spring back over the cutterhead when you do this. — If the guard does not quickly spring back over the cutterhead when you perform this test, then remove it and repeat Steps 27–29. -
Page 20: Test Run
Test Run Complete this process once you have familiarized yourself with all instructions in this manual. To test run the jointer, do these steps: 1. Read the entire owner's manual first to make sure you are familiar with the safety and operation con- trols of this machine! 2. -
Page 21: Operations
W1755 6" Parallelogram Jointer General The Model W1755 will perform many types of operations that are beyond the scope of this manual. Many of these operations can be dangerous or deadly if performed incorrectly. The instructions in this section are written with the understanding that the operator has the necessary knowl- edge and skills to operate this machine. -
Page 22: Basic Controls
W1755 6" Parallelogram Jointer Basic Controls This section covers the basic controls used during routine START Button operations. ON/OFF Switch (Figure 26): Starts and stops the motor. After the OFF paddle is pushed, the switch may need to be reset before the next operation by lifting the paddle and fully depressing the STOP button. -
Page 23: Stock Inspection & Requirements
W1755 6" Parallelogram Jointer Stock Inspection & Requirements Here are some rules to follow when choosing and jointing stock: DO NOT joint or surface plane stock that contains • loose knots. Injury to the operator or damage to the workpiece can occur if the knots become dislodged during the cutting operation. -
Page 24: Squaring Stock
Squaring Stock Squaring stock involves four steps performed in the order below: 1. Surface Plane on the Jointer: The concave face of the workpiece is surface planed flat with the jointer (Figure 32). 2. Surface Plane on a Thickness Planer: The opposite face of the workpiece is surface planed flat with a thickness planer (Figure 33). -
Page 25: Surface Planing
W1755 6" Parallelogram Jointer Surface Planing The purpose of surface planing on the jointer is to make one flat face on a piece of stock (see Figures 36 & 37) to prepare it for surface planing on a thickness planer. NOTICE If you are not experienced with a jointer, set the depth of cut to 0", and practice feeding the... -
Page 26: Edge Jointing
Edge Jointing The purpose of edge jointing is to produce a finished, flat-edged surface (see Figures 38 & 39) that is suitable for joinery or finishing. It is also a necessary step when squaring rough or warped stock. NOTICE If you are not experienced with a jointer, set the depth of cut to 0", and practice feeding the workpiece across the tables as described below. -
Page 27: Bevel Cutting
W1755 6" Parallelogram Jointer Bevel Cutting The purpose of bevel cutting is to cut a specific angle into the edge of a workpiece (see Figures 40 & 41). The Model W1755 has preset fence stops at 45˚ inward, 90˚ , and 45˚ outward (135˚). If your situation requires a different angle, the preset fence stops can be easily adjusted for your needs. -
Page 28: Rabbet Cutting
Rabbet Cutting Rabbet cuts remove a section of the workpiece edge (see Figures 42 & 43). When combined with another rabbet cut edge, the rabbet joints create a simple, yet strong method of joining stock. Often, rabbet cuts must be made in multiple passes to acheive the desired depth. -

Page 31: Adjusting/Replacing Knives
W1755 6" Parallelogram Jointer Adjusting/Replacing Knives Setting the knives correctly is crucial to the proper oper- ation of the jointer and is very important in keeping the knives sharp. If one knife is higher than the others, it will do the majority of the work, and thus, dull much faster than the others. - Page 32 The Model W1755 comes with both jack screws and springs inside the cutterhead to provide two options for adjusting the knives (see Figure 46). Note: Only one of these options is needed to set the knives—Step 5 gives the details. To adjust/replace the knives, do these steps: 1.
- Page 33 W1755 6" Parallelogram Jointer 7. Adjusting the knife heights: Jack Screws: Using a 3mm hex wrench, find the jack screws through the access holes in the cutterhead (Figure 48) and rotate the jack screws to raise or lower the knife. When the knife is set correctly, it will barely touch the bottom of the straightedge or the knife setting jig middle pad.
-
Page 34: Checking/Adjusting Table Parallelism
Checking/Adjusting Table Parallelism If the tables are not parallel with the cutterhead or each other, then poor cutting results and kickback may occur. Checking Outfeed Table To check the outfeed table parallelism, do these steps: 1. DISCONNECT JOINTER FROM POWER SOURCE! 2. - Page 35 W1755 6" Parallelogram Jointer 3. Place the straightedge halfway across the infeed table and halfway over the outfeed table, and adjust the infeed table even with the outfeed table, as shown in Figure 53. 4. Place the straightedge in the positions shown in Figure 54.
- Page 36 To adjust the table parallelism, do these steps: 1. DISCONNECT JOINTER FROM POWER SOURCE! 2. Remove the cutterhead guard and fence. 3. Place the straightedge on the outfeed table so it hangs over the cutterhead, and lower the outfeed table until the straightedge just touches the cutterhead body, as shown in Figure 51.
-
Page 37: Setting Outfeed Table Height
W1755 6" Parallelogram Jointer Setting Outfeed Table Height The outfeed table height must be even with the cutterhead knives at top dead center. If the outfeed table is set too low, there will be snipe. If the outfeed table is set too high, the workpiece will hit the edge of the outfeed table during operation, increasing the chance of kickback. -
Page 38: Setting Infeed Table Height
Setting Infeed Table Height The infeed table on the Model W1755 has positive stop bolts that, when properly set up, allow the operator to quickly adjust the infeed table between finish/final cuts (top height) and shaping/heavy cuts (bottom height). We recommend setting the minimum depth of cut to and the maximum depth of cut to tions. -
Page 39: Setting Fence Stops
W1755 6" Parallelogram Jointer Setting Fence Stops The fence stops simplify the task of adjusting the fence to 45˚ inward, 90˚ , and 45˚ outward (135˚). To set the 45˚ inward fence stop, do these steps: 1. Tilt the fence approximately 45° inward (Figure 60) onto the positive stop bolts, using a 45°... -
Page 40: V-Belt Replacement
V-Belt Replacement Inspect the V-belt closely; if you notice fraying, cracking, glazing, or any other damage, replace the belt. A worn or damaged V-belt will not provide optimum power transmis- sion from the motor to the cutterhead. Overly loose V-belts can slip on the pulleys and burn up or cause poor machine performance. -
Page 41: Pulley Alignment
W1755 6" Parallelogram Jointer Pulley Alignment Pulley alignment is another important factor in power transmission and belt life. The pulleys should be parallel to each other and in the same plane (coplanar) for opti- mum performance. Each pulley can be adjusted by loosening the motor mount bolts, sliding the motor in or out, and retightening the fasteners to lock the motor pulley in place. -
