CUTTERHEAD GUARD ASSEMBLY

NOTE:

 Pending factory settings, the cutterhead guard 

may already be pre-installed on the jointer. If so, dis-

regard this step. If the guard is not installed, follow the  

installation step below.

1. Attach the Cutterhead Guard to the jointer with the 

two Button Head Screws (A). FIG. 8.

The cutterhead guard has a tension return spring. 

The tension on this spring is set at the factory. When 

the guard is installed properly, it should return to the 

fence automatically after the workpiece has passed 

over the cutterhead. Be sure the guard is functioning 

properly every time before using the jointer.
