Donot pass hands directly over the cutterhead!The use of push sticks and/or handle padsare highly recommended when using thejointer!Failure to comply may cause serious injury!Jointing cuts or edge jointing are made to squarean edge of a workpiece. The workpiece is posi-tioned on the jointer with the narrow edge of theworkpiece on the infeed table and the major flatsurface of the workpiece against the fence (Fig. 21).Planing cuts are similar. The major surface of theworkpiece is placed on the table with the narrowedge of the workpiece against the fence (Fig. 22).For jointing and planing cuts pressure is directedthree ways; into the fence to ensure a square cut,forward to advance the stock, and downward to avoidchatter and vibration.For jointing when the material is higher than thefence, the left hand applies pressure into the fenceand down toward the table while the right handpushes forward from behind. Be sure to keep theright hand high up on the material. (Fig. 21)For jointing material that is lower than the fence,use push sticks to protect the hands. For planing,use handle pads. (Fig. 22) Never place the righthand on the trailing edge of the material. Handplacement on the trailing edge of the materialmay cause the hand to come into contact withthe blade.Feed work from right to left at a steady, moderatespeed. If you feed the material too slowly, the woodwill burn in places. If you feed the material tooquickly, ridges will appear in the finished surface.Fig. 22Fig. 21 |
