2.NOTE: When raising or lowering the infeed table a plunger located on other end of the index stop (C) Fig. 36, automatically stops the table at 1/8 inch depth of cut. To move the table past this point it is necessary to pull out index stop (C) and move the table up or down. IMPORTANT: Always make sure table lockhandle (A) is tightened before operation. The table lockhandle
(A)is
3.The depth of cut of the infeed table (position of table in relationship with the cutting circle) can be read with the pointer (D) Fig. 36, and scale (E). Maximum table depth adjustment with this 6" jointer is 1/2 inch.
INFEED TABLE POSITIVE STOPS
Positive stops are provided to limit the height and depth of the infeed table. To adjust the stops, loosen two locknuts
(F)and (G) Fig. 37, and turn the two adjusting screws (J) and (K) as required. Then retighten the locknuts (F) and
(G).A good suggestion is to set the upper positive stop
(J)for your finish or final cut. This means that you will be able to rapidly set the infeed table for a finish or final cut without checking the scale and pointer. Also the lower positive stop (K) can be set for the maximum 1/2" depth of cut or if you desire to limit the depth of cut, adjust the stop screw (K) accordingly.
OUTFEED TABLE ADJUSTMENTS
For most jointing operations the outfeed table must be level with the knives at their highest point of revolution. This means that the knives must be parallel to the outfeed table and project equally from the cutterhead. To move the outfeed table up or down, loosen lockscrew
(A)Fig. 38, and turn hand knob (B). When the outfeed table is level with the knives at their highest point of revolution, tighten lockscrew (A).
KNIFE AND OUTFEED TABLE
ADJUSTMENTS
In order to do accurate work, the knives must be exactly level with the outfeed table. To check and adjust, proceed as follows:
1.
Disconnect machine from power source.
2.Loosen lock lever (A) Fig. 40, and lower the infeed table by pushing handle (B) down. Remove cutterhead guard (C).
3.Place a straight edge on the outfeed table, extending over the cutterhead as shown in Fig. 39 and 42.
