Grizzly G0609 Stock Inspection and Requirements, Correct and incorrect grain alignment

Page 23

Table Movement: To move the infeed table, loosen the table lock (Figure 17), move the table with the table handwheel in the preset range, then tighten the table lock. The outfeed table is preset with no range of movement allowed, so if it gets accidentally unlocked it will not move. To adjust the preset range of movement, refer to SECTION 7: SERVICE, Page 32 about setting table heights.

Fence Movement: The fence has a lock handle that keeps it in position (Figure 18). To move the fence, loosen the lock handle and slide the fence where needed.

Stock Inspection and Requirements

Here are some rules to follow when choosing and jointing stock:

DO NOT joint or surface plane stock that contains knots. Injury to the operator or damage to the workpiece can occur if the knots become dislodged during the cutting operation.

DO NOT joint or surface plane against the grain direction. Cutting against the grain increases the likelihood of stock kickback, as well as tear-out on the workpiece.

Jointing and surface planing with the grain produces a better finish and is safer for the operator. Cutting with the grain is described as feeding the stock on the jointer so the grain points down and toward you as viewed on the edge of the stock (Figure 19).

Note: If the grain changes direction along the edge of the board, decrease the cutting depth and make additional passes.

Fence Tilting: The tilt lock (Figure 18) secures the fence at any position in the available range. The stop block sets the fence tilt to 90°. Positive stops stop the fence at 45° inward and 45° out- ward, for common 45° bevel cuts. Even when the fence is resting against the positive stops, the tilt lock must be tightened before cutting.
