Winding Cutterhead
Guard
Though the cutterhead guard is pre-installed, you should check to make sure it works.
1.Pull the guard back and let it go. The guard should spring back over the cutterhead.
—If the guard drags across the table, loosen the set screws on the guard, raise it slight- ly, then tighten the set screws.
—If the guard does not spring back over the cutterhead, loosen the set screws on the jointer shown in Figure 10, hold the guard over the cutterhead, and wind the shaft collar clockwise. Tighten the set screws. Check to see if the guard works and adjust the collar as needed.
