CHECKING CUTTER BLADES

AND CORD IS UNPLUGGED BEFORE PROCEEDING WITH CHECK-

_ CAUTION: MAKE SURE THE SWITCH IS IN THE OFF POST ON ING CUTTER BLADES.

The blades in your Jointer*Planer have been adjusted at the factory to assure proper operation. Shipping and handling, however, may cause

misalignment. For accurate cutting, the blades must be .O03-in. higher than the outfeed table (thickness of a piece of paper) when positioned at the highest point.

1.Block the cutter guard open with a scrap piece of wood about 5-1/2" long between the fence and cutter guard.

Locate the slot in the cutter head shaft through the small hole in the backside of the machine directly above the vacuum port. Rotate the

cutter head with a screwdriver until one of the blades is at its highest position.

pJaee a straight edge over the outfeed table and the blade. The straight edge must touch evenly on the outfeed table at both ends of the blade, Rotate the cutterhead slowly, and making sure the blade lightly touches the straight edge. If the straight edge rises or blades

do not touch, follow the "REPLACING CUTTER BLADES" procedure

in the "MAINTENANCE" section.
