Figure 9 shows the setting of the knives with the

knife setting gauge.

The knives are locked into the cutterhead with wedge-type gibs and gib bolts. Jack screws under the knives allow fine tuning to help in the setting process. To re-align the knives:

1.Unplug the jointer!

2.Loosen the gib bolts until the knife is loose in the slot. The gib bolts turn clockwise to loosen and counterclockwise to tighten (when facing the head of the bolt). See

Figures 10 and 11.

3.Place the knife setting gauge across the knife edge and the outfeed table as described pre- viously.

4.Adjust the screws below each end of the knife until both feet of the gauge rest flush and evenly on the outfeed table and the knife edge is just touching the bottom of the gauge. Securely tighten each gib bolt. The gauge will set the knives at a uniform protrusion above the cutterhead. The knife height should vary no more than .002"-.003" across the length of the cutterhead. A dial indicator can be used to check variation in thousandths of an inch; however, the standard knife setting gauge is satisfactory for reasonably accurate knife set- ting tasks.

5.Repeat the same procedure on the remaining knives.
