IMPORTANT: If the bearings need replacement,
this should be done by qualified service
personnel. The bearings are press fitted and
must be removed with an arbor press.
To re-install cutterhead, reverse the above
procedure. Before re-installing, make sure the
machine's curved seats of the base casting are
free of dirt, dust or grease, to help ensure a tight
fit.
NOTE: Whenever the cutterhead is re-installed
on the jointer, the tables must be leveled in
relationship to it.
You may wish to keep an extra cutterhead on
hand to maintain shop productivity.
