G0500/G1018/G1018HW 8" Jointers -29- Squaring Stock The jointer performs two of the four required operations for squaring up stock—surface plan- ing and edge jointing. To help you understand these two operations better, we quickly describe the squaring process below: 1 5 3 0 4 5 Step 1. Surface plane the concave face with a JOINTER to make i[...]

-30- G0500/G1018/G1018HW 8" Jointers Surface Planing The purpose of surface planing is to make a flat face on a piece of stock to prepare it for planing on a thickness planer. See Figure 44. 4. Make sure your fence is set to 90˚ 5. If your workpiece is cupped (warped), place it so the concave side is face down on the surface of the infeed tab[...]

G0500/G1018/G1018HW 8" Jointers -31- Edge Jointing The purpose of edge jointing is to produce a fin- ished, flat-edged surface that is suitable for join- ery or finishing. It is also a necessary step in the squaring process of rough or warped stock. See Figure 46. Figure 46. Illustration of edge jointing effects. To edge joint on the jointer: [...]

-32- G0500/G1018/G1018HW 8" Jointers Bevel Cutting The purpose of bevel cutting is to cut a specific angle into the edge of a workpiece. See Figure 48. The Grizzly 8" Jointers have preset fence stops at 45˚ to the left and 45˚ to the right. If your situation requires a different angle, the preset fence stops can be easily adjusted for y[...]

G0500/G1018/G1018HW 8" Jointers -33- Rabbet Cutting The purpose of rabbet cutting is to remove a sec- tion of the workpiece edge. When combined with another rabbet cut edge, the rabbet joints create a simple, yet strong method of joining stock. See Figure 50. 4. Set the cutting depth for your operation. (We suggest between 1 ⁄ 16 " and [...]
