  • Page 10 OPERATION WARNING: Do not connect the jointer to the power source until all assembly steps have been completed. Jointing is a surfacing operation in which a small amount of wood is removed from the edges and faces of boards to smooth and straighten surfaces. This way, the two edges from differing boards can fit together to form a perfect seamless joint.
  • Page 11 OPERATION TESTING THE BLADE HEIGHT The blades have been adjusted at the factory to assure proper operation and theoretically should require no adjustment. However, shipping and handling may have cause slight misalignment. For accurate cutting, the blades must be as high as the outfeed table when positioned at the highest point.
  • Page 12 OPERATION FEEDING WORK Feed rate refers to the rate at which wood is passed over the blades. An even feed produces a uniform finish. To feed the work piece: 1. Hold the work piece firmly down on the feed table and against the fence.
  • Page 13 MAINTENANCE CHECK FOR WORN BLADES The condition of blades will affect the precision of the cuts. Observe the quality of the cut that the jointer pro- duces to check the condition of the blades. Dull blades will tear, rather than sever wood fibers and produce fuzzy appearances.
