Grizzly G0945 User Manual

Edge jointing (see example Figures below) pro-
duces a flat and true surface along the side of
a workpiece by removing uneven areas.
It is
an
essential step for
squaring up warped
or rough
stock and when preparing a workpiece for joinery
or finishing.
To edge joint on jointer:
1.
Inspect stock to ensure it is safe and suitable
for the operation (see
Stock Inspection &
Requirements section).
2.
Surface plane workpiece (see
Surface
Planing section).
3.
Set infeed table height to desired cutting
depth for each pass.
CAUTION:
To minimize risk of kickback,
do not exceed a cutting depth of
1
⁄8" per pass
.
4.
Set fence to 90°.
5.
Start jointer.
6.
Place workpiece firmly against fence and
infeed table with concave side facing down.
CAUTION:
To ensure workpiece remains
stable during cut, concave sides
of workpiece
must face toward table and fence.
7.
Feed workpiece completely across cutter-
head while keeping it firmly against fence
and tables during the entire cut.
CAUTION: Keep hands at least 4" away
from cutterhead during the entire cut. Instead
of allowing a hand to pass directly over cut-
terhead, lift it up and over cutterhead, and
safely reposition it on the outfeed side to con-
tinue supporting workpiece. Use push blocks
whenever practical to further reduce risk of
accidental hand contact with cutterhead.
8.
Repeat Step 6 until the entire edge is flat.
Tip:
When squaring up stock, cut opposite
edge of workpiece with a table saw instead
of the jointer—otherwise, both edges of work-
piece will not be parallel with each other.
