wrenches.

The section of a jointer bed which supports the work-
piece after it passes over the cutter.

is done to achieve full width of cut or to use a different
(sharper) part of blade.

and pulley.

to lock infeed or outfeed table at a desired height.

wood will be removed from the workpiece on each

piece is placed before being pushed into the cutter.
Its height is adjustable which allows the operator to
select the depth of cut.

the cutterhead. It is spring loaded so it automatically
keeps the cutterhead covered before, during, and
after a cutting operation. It must always be used.
