below  the  straightedge  (a  gap  exists)  or 
pushes  the  straightedge  up,  proceed  to  the 
next step. 

6.  Using a 4mm hex wrench, slightly loosen the 

four gib screws. 

7.  Using  a  3mm  hex  wrench,  loosen  the  cam 

locking  screws  to  permit  adjustment  of  the 
cam (described in the next step). 

Important:

  Always  keep  the  cam  locking 

screws  snug  enough  so  that  the  cam  can’t 
rotate freely. This is especially important for 
when  the  cam  is  rotated  counterclockwise 
since  this  action  will  cause  the  cam  locking 
screw to loosen further. 

8.  Using an 8mm hex wrench, adjust the cam. 

This is a very sensitive adjustment. Start by 
rotating the cam in a clockwise direction just 
a few degrees. 

9.  Next,  keep  the  cutterhead  steady  by  firmly 

holding  on  to  the  pulley,  place  a  piece  of 
wood  pressed  against  the  knife’s  edge  and 
press to properly seat the blade. 

10.  Check  your  progress  by  repeating  steps  4 

and  5.  If  the  knife  becomes  more  out  of 
adjustment,  turn  the  cam  in  the  other 
direction. 

11.  The adjustment is almost complete when the 

requirements described in Steps 4 and 5 are 
met. 

12.  Next, while pressing the knife firmly against 

the cam, snug the two inside gib screws that 
hold  the  gib  and  knife  in  place.  Verify  that 
the  knife  is  still  in  adjustment  (steps  4  and 
5). 

13.  Tighten the two outside gib screws, then the 

two inside gib screws. Verify that the knife is 
still in adjustment (steps 4 and 5). 

14.  Tighten the gib lock screws. 

15.  Repeat  this  entire  procedure  for  the 

remaining two knives.

  Replacing knives (JJ-6CSDX) 

 

Jointer 

knives 

are 

dangerously  sharp.  Use  extreme  caution 
when  inspecting,  removing,  or  replacing 
knives. 

 

To  remove/replace  a  knife  (Refer  to  Figure 8-
13): 

 

Figure 8-13 

1.  Remove four 

gib screws

 (A) with a 4mm hex 

wrench. 

2.  Remove the 

gib

 (B) and 

knife

 (C). 

If  the  knife  is  being  reused  (knives  are 
double-edged),  clean  the  knife,  gib  and 
cutterhead of all pitch and debris. 

3.  Lay the new knife or unused edge of the old 

knife back onto the 

cutterhead

 (D). 

4.  Replace  the 

gib

  (B)  and 

screws

  (A).  Finger 

tighten only at this time. 

5.  Press against the cutting edge of the knife at 

the center of the blade with a piece of wood. 

DO  NOT  USE  FINGERS! 

This  is  to  ensure 

that  the  cam  is  making  proper  contact  with 
the knife. 

6.  Snug the inside two screws, then the outside 

two screws.  

7.  Release the piece of wood pressing against 

the knife and tighten the gib screws.
