45 ° Fence Adjustment
Note: Whenever making an adjustment to the fence,
lift the fence up slightly after releasing the lock
handle to avoid scratching the table.
1. Loosen lock handle (A, Fig. 7). Move the stop
plate (B, Fig. 7) out of the way and position the
fence at the 45
° angle. Make sure the fence
sits against the stop bolt (C, Fig. 7).
2. Place a combination square (D, Fig. 7) on the
fence and table to confirm a 45
° setting.
3. To adjust, loosen lock nut (E, Fig. 7), turn bolt
(C, Fig. 7) until a 45
° angle is obtained, and
tighten lock nut (E, Fig. 7). Tighten lock handle
(A, Fig. 7).
Leveling Outfeed Table with Cutterhead
Knives

WARNING
Machine should be disconnected from
power source at this time!
Cutterhead blades are extremely sharp!
Use caution when hands are near the
cutterhead!
Failure to comply may cause serious injury!
For most jointing operations, the surface of the
outfeed table must be level with the knife tips of the
cutterhead at their highest point of revolution. The
knife tips must project equally from the cutterhead.
The outfeed table and cutterhead are adjusted at
the factory and should not require adjustment.
1. Carefully number each blade with a magic
marker to make them easier to differentiate.
2. Rotate the cutterhead by turning the cutterhead
pulley and determine the 12 o’clock position of
knife number one. The 12 o’clock position is
the highest point a blade will reach in the cut-
ting arc.
3. Loosen table lock screw (A, Fig. 8) and raise
the outfeed table to the height of blade number
one by turning handwheel (B, Fig. 8). Counter-
clockwise will cause the outfeed table to raise.
Clockwise will cause the outfeed table to lower.
Set a straight edge (C, Fig. 8) on the outfeed
table and across the cutterhead.

like figure 9. Use care when handling the straight
edge near the blades so as not to damage them.
