Checking Outfeed

Table Height

The outfeed table MUST be level with the knives when they are at top-dead-center or the workpiece cannot be feed across the jointer safely. The outfeed table height is factory set, but we recom- mend that you check it to make sure that it didn’t change during shipping.

To check the outfeed table height:

1.Place a straightedge on the outfeed table so it extends over the cutterhead.

2.Rotate the cutterhead pulley until one of the knives is at top-dead-center (TDC), as illus- trated in Figure 14.

When correctly set, the knife will barely touch the straightedge, as shown in Figure 15.

—If your outfeed table is correctly set, no adjustments are necessary.

—If the knife lifts the straightedge off the table or it is below the straightedge, then the outfeed table must be re-set. Refer to Setting Outfeed Table Height on Page 39.
