3.Install the guard shaft into the mounting hole, then tighten the lock knob.

4.Lock the fence out of the way toward the back, then test the return tension of the guard by swinging it counterclockwise and releas- ing it.

—If the guard does not return swiftly toward the fence, loosen the lock knob, lift the guard so the shaft clears the hole, rotate the guard clockwise, then re-install it and lock it in place.

5.Re-test and, if necessary, repeat Step 4 until the guard has the correct tension.

The outfeed table height MUST be even with the knives/cutters when they are at top-dead-center (TDC) to ensure safe operation and good results.

If the outfeed table is set too low, the workpiece will have increased snipe. If the outfeed table is set too high, the workpiece will hit the edge of the outfeed table and increase the risk of kickback.

To set the outfeed table height:

1.DISCONNECT JOINTER FROM POWER!
