ALIGN CUTTERHEAD TO OUTFEED TABLE (continued)

6.Loosen the four screws securing the clamp bar to the cutterhead. See Figure 8.

7.Locate the two adjustment screws on the exposed knife. Refer to Figure 9.

8.Rotate the adjustment screws clockwise to lower the knife or counterclockwise to raise it. Each screw must be adjusted separately.

9.Re-check the position of the knife on either end using the straightedge as in Step 3. Continue to adjust the height of the knife until it brushes the underside of the straightedge enough to move it 1/8”.

NOTE: Check both the left and right sides of the cutterhead knife to ensure they are at the proper height.

10.Replace the clamp bar and tighten the four screws securing the clamp bar to the cutterhead. Slightly tighten each of the clamp screws, making sure to follow the sequence shown in Figure 10.

NOTE: Failure to follow the proper sequence for tightening the clamp screws may result in the position of the knife being altered which can affect the performance of the tool.

CONNECTING TO DUST COLLECTOR

A jointer creates a large amount of fine particles while in use. It is strongly recommended that you connect the jointer to a dust collector. Your DELTA® Bench Jointer is equipped with a 2-1/4” (OD) dust port which is located underneath the outfeed table. This must be connected to a dust collector hose to ensure safe operation.

Do not attempt to operate this tool without first connecting it to an

adequate dust collection system.

Always turn on the dust collector before starting the jointer and always

stop the jointer before turning off the dust collector.
