Step 2) Flip the square jib so that its end sits against the flat part of the Plate (18)-see Figure 7.

Operation
When operating your Jointer, it will be helpful to refer to the Parts List and Assembly Diagram on the last pages
of this manual.
Never force the tool or attachment to do the work of a larger industrial tool. It is designed to do the job better
and more safely at the rate for which it was intended.
Use only wood boards.
Do not force feed your work through the machine. Allow the Jointer to feed at the designated rate of feed.
Note: This tool is specifically designed for the planing of lumber. Before working with any lumber,
check for any foreign materials such as nails, screws, or hard impurities. Also check for loose
knots in the wood. If not cleaned off these may cause damage to the blade or machine.
When feeding your lumber, use Push Blocks to feed the lumber, rather than
using your hands.
Settings and Adjustments
Before adjustments are made, ensure that the machine is SWITCHED OFF AND UNPLUGGED. Also make
sure all locking handles and securing screws are fully tightened when adjustments are complete.
Raising and Lowering Tables
Step 1) For both the Infeed Table (#33) and Out Feed Table (#1) loosen the Lock Screw (#45) nearest
the Handle Wheel (#43). Turn the Handle Wheel until the Table is set at the proper height.
Once the table is set as desired, tighten down the Lock Screw (#56).
