9.Each table has four cam adjustment devices; two in front and two in back.
NOTE: On the front of the Jointer, the two outside cams are concealed by the hubs. You must remove the hub to expose the cam adjustment device. Remove the socket head cap screw and flat washer at the center with a 6mm hex wrench, and loosen the two setscrews in the hub (Figure 21 shows one of the two set screw holes). Pull the hub straight out to expose the cam adjustment device.
10.At the area of the table where the adjustment must be made, pry out the cap (A, Figure 22) from the hole.
11.There are two set screws in the hole. Insert a 4mm hex wrench (B, Figure 22) into the hole and loosen the upper set screw by turning the hex wrench counterclockwise. Remove the upper set screw from the hole.
12.Loosen the lower set screw (do not remove it) by turning counterclockwise with the hex wrench.
13.Turn the hex nut (C, Figure 22) with a
NOTE: The rotation is different for left and right hex nuts; the right hex nut being turned in Figure 22 will be turned clockwise to raise that area of the table, or counterclockwise to lower that area of the table. The left hex nut shown in Figure 22 would be rotated in the opposite manner.
14.Use the straight edge upon the table and across the cutterhead to check the adjustment until the table is parallel with the cutterhead.
15.When the adjustment is satisfactory, with the tables now parallel to the cutterhead, tighten the lower set screw with the hex wrench (B, Figure 22).
16.Insert and tighten the upper set screw.
