The depth-of-cut scale indicates the amount of
material that will be removed with each pass over
the jointer.
To set the depth-of-cut scale:
1. Unplug the machine from the power
source!
2. Open the access door on the back of the
machine, just below the fence adjustments.
3. Place a straightedge on the outfeed table so
it hangs over the infeed table.
4. Turn the cutterhead pulley so the knives or
carbide cutters are NOT directly beneath the
straightedge.
5. Loosen the infeed table lock knob.
6. Turn the infeed table handwheel to raise or
lower the outfeed table until it just touches
the straightedge as shown in Figure 44.
7. Tighten the infeed table lock knob.
8. Loosen the depth-of-cut pointer screw and
adjust the depth pointer to the “0” position as
shown in Figure 45.
9. Tighten the depth-of-cut pointer screw.
