SECTION 4: OPERATIONS
Operation Overview
The purpose of this overview is to provide the nov-
ice machine operator with a basic understanding
of how the machine is used during operation, so
the
machine controls/components
discussed later
in this manual
are easier to understand.
Due to the generic nature of this overview, it is
not intended to be an instructional guide. To learn
more about specific operations, read this entire
manual and
seek additional training from expe
machine operators, and do additional
research outside of this manual by reading "how-
to" books, trade magazines, or websites.
To complete a typical operation, the operator
does the following:
1. Examines the workpiece to make sure it
is suitable for jointing. Also ensures entire
workpiece can be handled safely throughout
jointing operation.
2. Adjusts the fence position according to the
width of the workpiece.
3. Checks the fence for square or adjusts the
fence to the proper tilt for bevel edge jointing.
4. Sets the depth of the cut by adjusting the
infeed table height.
5. Ensures that cutterhead guard position and
operation are functioning properly.
6. Puts on safety glasses and a respirator, and
locates push blocks if needed.
7. Starts the jointer. Feeds the workpiece all the
way through the jointer while maintaining firm
pressure on the workpiece against the fence
and table—keeping hands and fingers away
from the cutterhead at all times.
8. Stops the machine.
