Squaring Stock

before turning the jointer ON, make sure the

outfeed table height is properly set (refer to

page 19 for detailed instructions) to avoid

workpiece kickback and to ensure good

results. Kickback of the workpiece could

cause serious personal injury!

Squaring stock involves four steps performed

in the following order:

1. Surface plane on the Jointer: the concave

face of the workpiece is surface planed flat
with the jointer (see

Figure 36).

2. Surface plane on a Thickness planer:

the opposite face of the workpiece is sur-
face planed flat with a thickness planer (see

Figure 37).

Making adjustments to the jointer while the

machine is ON greatly increases the risk to

the operator from the rotating cutterhead.

aLWayS make sure the jointer is OFF and

disconnected from power before performing

adjustments, maintenance, or service on the

machine!
