Table Alignment Instructions

JX6 & JX8 JOINTERS

DISCONNECT MACHINE

FROM POWER!

TABLE ALIGNMENT

The alignment of the infeed and outfeed

tables has been precisely set at the factory.

However, misalignment can be incurred

from shipping movement. Follow these

steps tocheck and adjust.

OVERVIEW

These instructions are intended to assist

when alignment of the infeed, outfeed or both

tables require adjustment. It is

important

note that the outfeed table must be parallel

and flush with the cutterhead before adjusting

the infeed table. Always make this adjustment

first if needed.

If the infeed table cannot be adjusted parallel

to the outfeed table (e.g. not enough

adjustment within the eccentric adjustment

collars), then the outfeed table will require

adjustment to bring into the same plane as

the

infeed table

, but the outfeed table must

ALWAYS remain

parallel

and

flush

with the

cutterhead. Always make this adjustment first

if needed.

Coplanarity Test

STEP 1

: DISCONNECT THE MACHINE

FROM POWER!

STEP 2:

Remove the cutterhead guard by

loosening the set screw(s) and removing

guard. (See GUARD INSTALLATION).

STEP 3:

Slide the fence assembly back

remove it from the machine (See

FENCE

REMOVAL).

STEP 4:

Place a straight edge across the

tables in positions as shown in

FIG. 1

each position, the straight edge should

rest flat and fit flush with both infeed and

outfeed tables (not on an insert knife). If it

does not, follow the

steps in Outfeed Table

and Infeed Table

adjustments.

Outfeed Table; paralleling to

cutterhead and establishing

proper height to cutterhead

STEP 1:

While the machine is disconnected

from

power

source, cutterhead guard is

removed, and fence is away or removed;

remove rear access panel of stand,

obtain access of drivebelt.

STEP 2:

Place a straight edge on

the

outfeed table halfwayover the cutterhead

NOTE:

When the half-moon shape of the

CAP screw indicator touches the plate, it

results in the lowest position of the

outfeed table and is a reference to the top-

dead-center of the inserts.

STEP 5:

Place a straight edge in positions

shown in FIG. 5 to make sure outfeed

table

is parallel with the cutterhead.

Step 7

: Confirm outfeed table is flush with

cutter head (insert knives at top-dead-

center). Tighten lock when adjusted. If

straight edge does not rest flat on outfeed

table, repeat STEP 4. If it sits flat on

outfeed, go to Infeed Table to check the

parallelism of infeed table.

Infeed Table

STEP 1:

Before checking parallelism on

infeed table, confirm the outfeed table is

parallel andflushwith insert tips at top-

dead-center.

STEP 2:

Place straight edge across infeed

and outfeed tables as in

FIG. 6

. If inserts

interfere with straight edge, rotate the

cutterhead.

STEP 3:

Place straight edge in positions

shown in

FIG. 7

Plate

STEP 4:

If straight edge lies uniformly flat

against both infeed and outfeed tables in

all

positions; re-install fence, blade guard

and rear access panel. If it does not fit

uniformly

flat against both infeed tables

and outfeed tables in any position, go to

Table Parallelism

Adjustment.

FIG. 11

Table Parallelism Adjustment

When the infeed table is not parallel with

the outfeed table, it can be adjusted.

NOTE:

This adjustment needs to be done

very precisely and typically does not

require re-adjustment once set.

Before following the steps below, double

check the alignments as shown in Infeed

Table to be certain that table adjustment

required.

STEP 1:

Place a straight edge on outfeed

table over the cutterhead and slightly

touching the cutterhead body as shown

FIG. 8.

STEP 4:

Place straight edge to all the

positions shown in

FIG. 11

and loosen set

screw(s) adjust theeccentric bushings, as

FIG. 10,

until

straight edge slightly

touches the cutterhead insert knife (at top-

dead-center) at each position.

STEP 5:

After verifying the parallelism on

the outfeed table, make sure the eccentric

collar(s) are seated snugly and tighten set

screw(s)into eccentric bushing(s)

FIG. 10.

STEP 2:

Remove the plugs and loosen CAP

screws to release and remove outfeed table

cover asin

FIG. 9

STEP 6:

Remove infeed table depth stop

release knob and infeed table cover, loosen

set screws and place straight edge across

infeed and outfeed tables as in

FIG. 12

, and

adjust

eccentric bushings under

infeed

table as STEP 4 for outfeed table.

STEP 7:

Verify parallelism in each position

Outfeed Table

Cover

as in

FIG. 12

, confirm eccentric bushings are

snug and tighten set screws in eccentric

bushings on infeed table.

STEP 3:

Loosen set screws as shown in

FIG. 10

SET Screws

STEP 8:

Tighten set screws in eccentric

bushings under infeed table.

STEP 9:

Re-install table covers and infeed

table depth stop release knob.

NOTE: Confirm the Eccentric Bushings are fully

seated (hex collar pushed snug into bracket)

before tightening SET Screws. This prevents

excessive play and side-to-side bed movement.

Troubleshooting:

Fence:

After adjusting either or both tables, check and if necessary, adjust the fence

according to fence setting instructions within the main manual.

Before making adjustments:

Always confirm the outfeed table is parallel and flush with the cutterhead before

adjusting the infeed table.

Infeed table cannot be adjusted parallel to the outfeed table:

If there is not enough adjustment available with the infeed table eccentric bushings

to align with the outfeed table; adjust outfeed table using the four eccentric bushings

to coplanarity to the infeed table. It is important to maintain the outfeed table

flush and parallel with the cutterhead when adjusting the outfeed table for

coplanarity.

Infeed or Outfeed Table loose, side-to-side:

If either the infeed or outfeed table are loose (side-to-side), it is probably due to lose

eccentric bushings and set screws in the height adjustment mechanism. Check

table alignment first and eccentric bushings last by following through the previous

instructions and “NOTE” after STEP 8 of “Table Parallelism Adjustment”.
