Bevel Cutting

The purpose of bevel cutting is to cut a specific angle into the edge of a workpiece (see Figures 26 & 27).

The Model G0609 has preset fence stops at 45˚ inward, 90˚, and 45˚ outward (135˚). If your situ- ation requires a different angle, the preset fence stops can be easily adjusted for your needs.

NOTICE

If you are not experienced with a jointer, set the depth of cut to 0", and practice feeding the workpiece across the tables as described below. This procedure will better prepare you for the actual operation.

To bevel cut on the jointer:

1.Read and understand SECTION 1: SAFETY, beginning on Page 7.

2.Inspect your stock for the dangerous condi- tions described in Stock Inspection instruc- tions, beginning on Page 21.

3.Set the cutting depth for your operation.

Note: We suggest between 116" and 18" for bevel cutting, using a more shallow depth for hard wood species or for wide stock.

4.Set the fence to the angle of your desired cut and place the workpiece on the jointer.

—If your workpiece is cupped (warped), place it so the cupped edge is face down on the surface of the infeed table.

5.Start the jointer.

The step below requires you to use a push block. Failure to use push blocks when surface planing may result in cutterhead contact, which will cause serious personal injury. Always use push blocks to protect your hands when surface planing on the jointer.

6.With a push block in your leading hand, press the workpiece against the table and fence (Figure 26) with firm pressure, and feed the workpiece over the cutterhead.

Note: If your leading hand gets within 4" of the cutterhead, lift it up and over the cutterhead, and place the push block on the portion of the workpiece that is on the outfeed table. Now, focus your pressure on the outfeed end of the workpiece while feeding, and repeat the same action with your trailing hand when it gets within 4" of the cutterhead. To keep your hands safe, DO NOT let them get closer than 4" from the cutterhead when it is moving!

7.Repeat Step 6 until the angled cut is satisfac- tory to your needs.
