3.With the use of a magnet or an assistant, make sure that the straightedge stays flat against the full length of its contact with the outfeed table during the following steps.

4.Use the handwheel to adjust the infeed table as close as possible to the straightedge, then look closely for any gaps between the infeed table and the straightedge. Repeat this pro- cess on the front of the infeed table.

—If there are no gaps as the straightedge is positioned on both the back and front of the tables, then the infeed table is parallel with the outfeed table and the cutterhead— thus, no further adjustments are required. Proceed to Step 7.

—If there are gaps between the straightedge and the infeed table, make a note of how much and where the gaps are, then pro- ceed to Step 5.

Note: To access the table adjustment bolts on the back side of the infeed table, remove the back table cover.

5.Use the same process you performed in Step 9 on Page 46 to raise or lower the left or right end of the infeed table to eliminate the gaps. Adjust the adjustment bolts equally on each side for the targeted end of the table, one after the other, in very small increments (see

Figure 73).

6.Repeat Steps 4–5until the infeed table is completely parallel to the outfeed table, which will also make it parallel to the cutterhead.

7.If the table adjustment cap and set screws are loose, re-tighten them and re-install the previously removed parts.

8.Loosen the screw that secures the depth of cut pointer (see Figure 74), adjust the pointer to "0", then re-tighten the screw.

9.If your jointer uses a knife-style cutterhead, re-adjust the knife heights as instructed in the

Adjusting/Replacing Cutterhead Knives subsection on Page 39.
