Checking Outfeed
Table Height
The outfeed table MUST be level with the knives
when they are at top dead center (their highest
point during rotation) or the workpiece cannot be
fed across the jointer safely.
To check the outfeed table height:
1. Place a straightedge on the outfeed table so it
extends over the cutterhead
.
2. Rotate the cutterhead pulley until one of the
knives is at top dead center, as illustrated in
Figure 10.
5. Remove the V-belt and loosen the motor
mount fasteners
.
6. Shift the motor horizontally as needed to alig
n
the motor pulley with the cutterhead pulley
,
then replace and retension the V-belt.
7. Tighten the
motor mount fasteners.
8. Install the belt guard with the flange bolts,
washers, and hex nuts (
Figure 9).

Replace the access panel on the stand.
The belt guard MUST be installed before
operating the jointer or the moving V-belt
will be exposed, creating an entanglement
hazard at the back of the jointer.
