Maintenance
Cleansing
• Keep the interior of the cabinet free of sawdust and
wood dust. Disconnect the edge planner. Vacuum the
inside of the cabinet or blow with an air hose.
Double-check not to use air pressure not higher than 50
PSI since the air pressure may damage insulating.
• The jointer mechanisms can be cleaned with a strong
brush.
• Tar or resin accumulation shall be cleaned with a solvent
like turpentine or mineral alcohol, a strong wire brush and
steel fiber.
Lubrication
• The jointer is built with sealed bearings into the motor
housing and also into the assembly on the disc center
therefore it needs no additional lubrication.
Blade replacement
• Move the rip fence back until it stops and remove the
guard to uncover the cutter head.
• Loosen the screws (A) to remove the blade and the
counter-blade.
• Turn the lifting screws (C) counterclockwise until they
stop.
• Follow the same mechanism to remove the remaining
two sets of blades and counter-blades.
• Before replacing blades double-check the counter-blades
are completely clean and free of gum or resin.
• Set the counter-blades and blades inside the cutter head
slots.
• Push the blades down as much as possible using a piece
of wood and tighten the screws (A).
• Set the gauge (D) onto the cutter head. The blade shall
make contact with the inner side of the gauge, sticking out
0,060" from the cutter head diameter.
• If the blade is not well calibrated slightly loosen the
screws (A) clockwise using the key included.
• Adjust the blade height turning the lifting screws (C)
cusing one of the Allen keys included. Turning clockwise
will raise the blade and counterclockwise will lower it.
Honing the blades
• After a long period of use the blades can get dull.
• Hone the worn blades assembled in the cutter head to
prevent the blades loose alignment.
• Cover the in feed table with paper to prevent damages.
Lower it.
• Move the cutter head until the bevel in the blade is aligned
with the table surface.
• With silica carbide stone hone the blade manually. Use the
previously protected with paper in feed table as a guide.
Tables surface
• The table surface is made of unfinished metal. With
the passing of time it accumulates oxide when not
serviced. When using a brush apply a thin layer of
WD-40 to prevent oxidation.
• If oxide has accumulated already on the table surface,
use WD-40 and a fine wire flannel to remove it.
• A good preventive measure to prevent the setting of
oxide is using quality wax paste onto the table surface.
