Squaring Stock
Before turning the jointer ON, make sure
the outfeed table height is properly set
(refer to Setting Outfeed Table height on
page 22 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 41).
