A jointer is mainly used to flatten the face or edge of a workpiece, which is required when properly "squaring up" a workpiece for later construction or joining multiple pieces with glue. A jointer can also cut bevels, rabbets, and other specialized cuts with various jigs or fixtures.

The primary components of the jointer are the infeed table, cutterhead, fence, and outfeed table. A typical cut on a jointer is made by firmly holding a workpiece against the infeed table and fence, then moving the workpiece over the cutterhead while using the fence as a guide. As the workpiece moves over the cutterhead, the inserts make many shallow cuts that "shave" off the workpiece surface. After moving over the cutterhead, the workpiece is supported by the outfeed table, which along with the fence, continue to guide the workpiece across a flat plane until it completely passes the cutterhead. Since only a small amount of the workpiece is removed during a jointer cut, most jointer cuts are repeated many times.

The position of the infeed table relative to the outfeed table controls the cutting depth. If the infeed table is 1⁄16" lower than the outfeed table, then 1⁄16" of the workpiece will be removed by the cutterhead as the workpiece passes from the infeed table to the outfeed table.

Since the workpiece is held firmly against the fence as it passes over the cutterhead, the fence controls the angle of the cut. The fence can be moved 45° in either direction and locked in place. The fence also features stops that allow it to be quickly set at 45°, 90°, and 135°.

The outfeed table must be even with the inserts at their highest point of rotation to keep the freshly cut portion of the workpiece in the same plane as it was cut, which is what yields a flat workpiece.
