Blade Guard

The blade guard protects the operator from the cutterhead blades. It must be functioning cor- rectly before performing any jointing operation.

To make sure the blade guard is functioning correctly, do these steps:

1.UNPLUG THE JOINTER!

2.Adjust the infeed table even with the out- feed table.

3.Slide a piece of wood across the jointer as if performing an actual jointing operation.

The blade guard should rotate enough to allow the wood to pass over the cutter- head (Figure 30).

Once the wood has passed over the cut- terhead, the blade guard should swing completely back over the cutterhead.

4.Swing the blade guard completely open and release it.

The blade guard should swing complete- ly back over the cutterhead.
