G0500/G1018/G1018HW 8" Jointers
The Grizzly 8" Jointers have three fence stops at
45˚ R, 90˚, and 45˚L (see Figure 39). It is impor-
tant to check and adjust these stops to ensure
proper operation and quality results.
Fence Stops

square.
To check and adjust the 45˚ R fence stop:
1. Loosen the fence tilt lock handle.
2. Rotate the 90˚ stop tab out of the way and
ease the fence back with the tilt handle, until
it comes to rest on the 45˚ R stop bolt.
3. Use a bevel gauge that is set to 135˚, and
place it on the table so the angled portion is
against the fence as shown in Figure 40.
4. Check the current position of the fence. If it
fits the angle of the bevel gauge, the fence is
already set correctly. If it does not, then the
fence needs to be adjusted.
5. Loosen the jam nut on the 45˚R fence stop
bolt.
6. Adjust the 45˚R fence stop bolt until the
fence angle matches the bevel gauge.
7. Tighten the jam nut on the 45˚R stop bolt to
secure it in place. The 45˚R fence stop
should now be correctly adjusted.
To check and adjust the 90˚ fence stop:
1. Loosen the fence tilt lock handle.
2. Place a 90˚ square on the table and against
the fence as shown in Figure 41.
3. Check the current position of the fence. If it
fits the 90˚ square, the fence is already set
correctly. If it does not, then the fence needs
to be adjusted.
4. Loosen the jam nut on the 90˚ stop bolt.
5. Adjust the 90˚ stop bolt until the fence angle
matches the 90˚ square.
6. Tighten the jam nut on the 90˚ stop bolt to
secure it in place. The 90˚ stop bolt should
now be correctly adjusted.
