Revised Assembly Steps
9. Set fence to 90° and move it all the way back.
10.
Remove pre-installed button head cap screw
and fender washer from bottom of cutterhead
guard shaft; then loosen shaft lock and insert
shaft into mounting hole, positioned so guard
rests against fence (see Figure 14).
12.
Verify proper operation of cutterhead guard
by setting fence to 90°, moving fence to rear
of table, then pulling cutterhead guard back
and letting it go. It should spring back over
cutterhead and contact fence without drag-
ging across outfeed table.
—
I f cutterhead guard does not spring back
over cutterhead and contact fence, or if it
drags across outfeed table, then it must
be adjusted (refer to Checking/Adjusting
Cutterhead Guard on
Page 53 for
instructions).
The cutterhead guard is a critical safety
feature of this jointer. You MUST verify its
operation before using the jointer! Failure
to properly install this guard will greatly
increase risk of serious personal injury.
11. Position guard height as low as possible with-
out dragging on infeed table/rabbeting ledge
(approximately
1
⁄16" above infeed table), tight-
en shaft lock to secure setting, then install
button head cap screw and fender washer.
