Blades adjustment (continued)
• In the event the blades push the ruler or cannot touch
them, a height adjustment is needed.
• Loosen a bit the four screws (L) using the key included.
Turn clockwise.
• Adjust the blade height turning the rising screws (M)
using one of the Allen keys included. Turning clockwise
elevates the blade and counterclockwise lower it.
• If you need to lower the blade use a
CAUTION
piece of wood to push down after turning the screws (M).
CAUTION • Tighten the four screws (L) immediately
after adjusting.
• Follow the same procedure for the rest of the blades.
Make a thorough adjustment on each of the blades before
trying to adjust the rest.
Adjusting the table gibs
• The jointer is built with gibs (N) in the joint in both tables
and their base. This is to prevent any wiggling originated in
the assembly due to excessive use or after long periods of
time.
• To tighten the gibs loosen the tables' locks (O) and safety
nuts (P).
• Tighten o loosen the adjusting screws as necessary.
Always start with the lower screw (Q) and the upper one
(R) to prevent the table to sit uneven.
• When adjusted tighten the safety nuts and the table locks.
• Avoid leaving a loose screw. The tables' movement needs
to be difficult so both tables are standing sturdy and the
edge-planing job is right.
Adjusting the rip fence
• The rip fence can go forward or backward on the
worktables and/or change angle to ±45°, depending on the
requirements of the work.
• To move the rip fence forward or backward loosen the
lock (S), turn the control knob (T) up to the desired
position. Tighten back the lock.
• Verify the rear guard (U) covers the cutter head when the
rip fence advances through the table.
• To change the angle of the rip fence loosen the lever (V)
while holding the rip fence by the control handles (W).
Turn the stopper (X) and tilt the rip fence to the desired
angle. Using a compound square set is recommended to
get the exact angle. Tighten the lever (V) before starting
the job.
CAUTION
• Use care while holding the work piece
in an angle larger than 90° since it is more difficult to hold
than with an angle lower than 90°. Have this note into
account to prevent accidents.
