14 Fault

correction

(The following images B1 to B6 are on a separate enclosed sheet).

Fault

Cause

Adjustment

B1

burns

blunt jointer bit

use sharp jointer bit

B2

expansion of dowel
hole

jointing depth excessive (greater
than 20 mm) with 5 mm jointing bit

reduce jointing depth

B3

dowel penetrates
workpiece

incorrect workpiece thickness
and/or jointing depth

adapt workpiece thickness and/
or jointing depth

B4

Tears at edge of dowel
hole

excessive feed rate

reduce feed rate

B5

dowel hole not parallel
to workpiece edge

workpiece has shifted during
processing

secure workpiece properly

B6

dowel hole not at right
angles (90°) to work-
piece surface

a) deposits (e.g. chips) below the

base plate

b) angle guide not set exactly to 90°
c) worked on without angle bracket

a) remove deposits

b) set angle guide to 90° exactly
c) use angle bracket

9a,
9b

The position of the
dowel holes, which
were created with the
left and right stop latch,
does not exactly match
(different distance to
workpiece edge).

The midpoint between the two
stop latch is not exactly in the
midpoint of the swivel range of
the jointer bit.

Remove one of the stop latches
(9.1) (Fig. 9a). Attach one of
the accompanying stop latches
(9.2) to the dowel jointer (Fig.
9b).These stop latches are nar-
rower and allow you to make
more accurate adjustments.
