SECTION 6: MAINTENANCE

Figure from the manual WARNING To reduce risk of shock or accidental startup, always disconnect machine from power before adjustments, maintenance, or service.

Schedule

For optimum performance from your machine, follow this maintenance schedule and refer to any specific instructions given in this section.

Daily

  • Vacuum all dust on and around the machine.
  • Wipe down the tables and all other unpainted cast iron with a metal protectant.
  • Check/repair for worn or damaged wires.
  • Check/replace damaged cutterhead or blades/inserts.
  • Check/retighten loose mounting bolts.
  • Check/resolve any other unsafe condition.

Monthly

  • V-belt tension, damage, or wear (Page 36).
  • Clean/vacuum dust buildup from inside stand and off of motor.

Cleaning & Protecting

Cleaning the Model G0490/G0490X is relatively easy. Vacuum excess wood chips and sawdust, and wipe off the remaining dust with a dry cloth. If any resin has built up, use a resin-dissolving cleaner to remove it.

Protect the unpainted cast iron surfaces on the table by wiping the table clean after every use—this ensures moisture from wood dust does not remain on bare metal surfaces.

Keep tables rust-free with regular applications of products like G96® Gun Treatment, SLIPIT®, or Boeshield® T-9 (see Page 32).

Lubrication

Since all bearings are sealed and permanently lubricated, simply leave them alone until they need to be replaced. DO NOT lubricate them.

Table ways and the fence assembly should not be lubricated. If the tables appear to be stuck, disassemble and clean any foreign materials from the ways, then re-assemble.

Inspecting Knives (G0490)

I nspecting Knife Height

Use the knife-setting jig to verify that all cutterhead knives are all set to the correct height and protruding evenly from one side of the cutterhead to the other.

To inspect positioning of knives in cutterhead:

  1. DISCONNECT JOINTER FROM POWER!
  2. Remove cutterhead guard or block it open.
  3. Lower infeed table to 1/2" scale mark.
  4. Place knife jig on cutterhead, directly over a knife.
  5. Closely examine how jig touches cutterhead and knife. The knife is set correctly when, on each side of cutterhead, both legs of jig sit firmly on cutterhead body and middle pad of jig just touches top edge of knife.

—If the jig does not sit as described, then that knife must be reset. (Repeat this inspection with the other knives before resetting.)

Figure from the manual CAUTION The cutterhead knives are very sharp and can easily cut your fingers or hands. Wear heavy leather gloves and take great care when handling cutterhead knives to avoid personal injury.

Setting Knives (G0490)

Setting the knives correctly is crucial to the proper operation of the jointer and it plays an important role in keeping the knives sharp. If one knife is higher than the others, it will do the majority of the work, and thus, become dull much faster.

The knife jig included with the jointer is designed to set the knives at the correct height.

Figure from the manual Figure 46. Profile of cutterhead with knives.

Tools Needed

  • Knife Setting Gauge ........ 1
  • Hex Wrench 2.5mm ........ 1
  • Wrench 10mm ........ 1

To set cutterhead knives:

  1. DISCONNECT JOINTER FROM POWER!
  2. Remove cutterhead guard from table. Lower both tables as far as they go. This provides unrestricted access to cutterhead.
  3. From backside of jointer, remove cabinet cover to expose V-belt.
  4. Use V-belt to rotate cutterhead and position knives.
  1. Loosen cutterhead gib bolts, starting in the middle, and alternating back and forth until all gib bolts are loose, but not falling out.

  2. Position knife setting gauge over knife. Loosen gib bolts until knife is completely loose.

  3. Access jack screws through holes in cutterhead. Using a hex wrench, rotate jack screws to raise or lower knife. When knife is set correctly, it will barely touch middle pad of gauge. Snug gib bolts just tight enough to hold knife in place. Repeat with remaining knives.

  4. Rotate cutterhead to reveal the first knife you started with. Lightly snug all gib bolts, alternating from one side to the other, and working from the ends to the middle. Repeat with remaining knives.

  5. Tighten each gib bolt in the same alternating manner as you did in previous step.

  6. Set outfeed table even with the new knives at top-dead center (refer to Setting Outfeed Table Height on Page 43 for detailed instructions).

Cutterhead Inserts (G0490X)

The spiral cutterhead is equipped with indexable carbide inserts. Each insert can be rotated to reveal any one of its four cutting edges. Therefore, if one cutting edge becomes dull or damaged, simply rotate it 90° to reveal a fresh cutting edge as shown below.

Each insert has a reference dot on one corner. As the insert is rotated, the reference dot location can be used as an indicator of which edges are used and which are new. Replace insert when the reference dot has been used and rotated back to its starting position.

Figure from the manual Reference Dot

-38- Model G0490/G0490X (Mfd. Since 8/12)

To rotate or replace spiral cutterhead insert:

  1. DISCONNECT MACHINE FROM POWER!

  2. Remove cutterhead guard from table, and lower infeed table as far as it will go, to provide access to cutterhead.

  3. Remove cabinet bottom access panel to expose cutterhead pulley.

  4. Rotate cutterhead pulley to provide access to insert(s) to be rotated/replaced.

  5. Put on heavy leather gloves to protect fingers and hands.

  6. Remove any sawdust or debris from head of insert, Torx screw, and surrounding area (see Figure).

  7. Remove Torx screw and insert, then clean all dust and debris from both parts and pocket they were removed from.

Note: Proper cleaning of insert(s), Torx screw, and cutterhead pocket is critical to achieving a smooth finish. Dirt or dust trapped between insert and cutterhead will raise insert, and make marks on your workpiece when jointing.

Tip: Use low-pressure compressed air or vacuum nozzle to clean cutterhead pocket.

  1. Re-install insert so that a fresh cutting edge faces outward, making sure it is properly seated in cutterhead pocket.

—If all four insert cutting edges have been used, replace insert with a new one. Always position reference dot in same position when installing a new insert to aid in rotational sequencing.

  1. Lubricate Torx screw threads with a small amount of light machine oil, wipe excess off, and torque screw to 48–50 inch/pounds.

Note: If too much oil is applied to the threads, excess will attempt to squeeze out of threaded hole as you install insert and force it to raise slightly, making it out of alignment.


Checking/Adjusting Table Parallelism

If the tables are not parallel with the cutterhead or each other, then poor cutting results and kickback can occur.

Figure from the manual Figure 49. Straightedge positions for verifying if outfeed table is parallel with cutterhead.

—If straightedge touches cutterhead body and sits flat across outfeed table in each position, then outfeed table is already parallel with cutterhead. Follow the Checking Infeed Table instructions on this page.

—If straightedge does not touch cutterhead and sits flat on outfeed table in any of the positions, then outfeed table is not parallel with cutterhead. Perform Adjusting Table Parallelism procedure on next page, then perform Checking Infeed Table instructions on this page.

Checking Infeed Table

  1. Follow all steps for checking outfeed table parallelism to first make sure that outfeed table is parallel with cutterhead.

  2. Correctly adjust the outfeed table height (refer to Setting Outfeed Table Height on Page 43 for detailed instructions).

  3. Rotate cutterhead so knives/inserts will not interfere, then place straightedge infeed and outfeed tables and adjust infeed table even with outfeed table, as shown in Figure 50.

Figure from the manual Figure 50. Infeed and outfeed tables set evenly (knife-style cutterhead shown).

  1. Place straightedge in the positions shown in Figure 51. In each position, straightedge should sit flat against both outfeed table and infeed table.

Figure from the manual Figure 51. Straightedge positions for checking infeed/outfeed table parallelism.

—If straightedge sits flat against both infeed and outfeed tables, then tables are parallel. Replace cutterhead guard, fence, and rear stand panel.

—If straightedge does not sit flat against both infeed and outfeed tables in any of positions, then follow Adjusting Table Parallelism instructions on the next page.

-40- Model G0490/G0490X (Mfd. Since 8/12)

Adjusting Table Parallelism

For safe and proper cutting results, the tables must be parallel to the cutterhead. Adjusting them to be parallel is a task of precision and patience, and may take up to one hour to complete. Luckily, this is considered a permanent adjustment and should not need to be repeated for the life of the machine.

Due to the complex nature of this task, we recommend that you double check the current table positions to make sure that they really need to be adjusted before starting.

Each table has four eccentric bushings on the base underneath the table that allow the table to be adjusted parallel. These eccentric bushings are locked in place by piggybacked set screws (one on top of the other) and adjust when these set screws are rotated.

The correct order for adjusting the table parallelism is to first adjust the outfeed table parallel with the cutterhead, then adjust the infeed table parallel with the outfeed table.

When setting the outfeed table, all measurements MUST be made from the cutterhead body—not the knives/inserts or the results may be skewed.

Important: The steps below are intended to be performed directly after the steps involved in checking the outfeed table parallelism. Do not continue until you have performed those steps.

To adjust table parallelism:

  1. Place straightedge on outfeed table so it hangs over cutterhead, and lower outfeed table until straightedge just touches cutterhead body, as shown in Figure 52.

Figure from the manual

Figure 52. Adjusting outfeed table even with cutterhead body (knife-style cutterhead shown).

  1. Remove top set screw from each of the four eccentric bushings under outfeed table, and loosen set screws underneath those removed set screws (see Figure 53).

Figure from the manual

Figure 53. Eccentric bushing and set screw location.

  1. Place straightedge in one of the positions shown in Figure 54, and adjust eccentric bushings so straightedge touches cutterhead body while lying flat across outfeed table (a pin-type spanner wrench or small hammer and punch may be necessary to turn eccentric bushings).

Figure from the manual Figure 54. Straightedge positions for verifying if outfeed table is parallel with cutterhead.

  1. Repeat Step 3 with each of remaining straight-edge positions as many times as necessary until outfeed table is parallel with cutterhead.

  2. Tighten/replace set screws in eccentric bush-ings on outfeed table.

  3. Remove set screw from each of the four eccentric bushings under infeed table, and loosen set screws underneath those removed set screws.

  4. Place straightedge halfway across infeed and outfeed tables, and adjust infeed table even with outfeed table, as shown in Figure 55.

Figure from the manual Figure 55. Infeed and outfeed tables set evenly (knife-style cutterhead shown).

  1. Place straightedge in one of the positions shown in Figure 56, and adjust eccentric bushings under infeed table so straightedge lies flat against both tables.

Figure from the manual Figure 56. Straightedge positions for checking infeed/outfeed table parallelism.

  1. Repeat Step 8 with each remaining straight-edge positions as many times as necessary until infeed table is parallel with outfeed table.

  2. Tighten/replace set screws in eccentric bush-ings on infeed table.

  3. Perform Setting Outfeed Table Height on next page.

-42- Model G0490/G0490X (Mfd. Since 8/12)

Setting Outfeed Table Height

The outfeed table height must be even with the top of the cutterhead knives. If the outfeed table is set too low, there will be snipe. If the outfeed table is set too high, the workpiece will hit the edge of the outfeed table during operation, increasing the chance of kickback.

Tools Needed

  • Straightedge ........ 1
  • Wrench 17mm ........ 1
  • Hex Wrench 8mm ........ 1
  • Hex Wrench 4mm ........ 1
  • Hex Wrench 3mm ........ 1
  • Feeler Gauge(s) 0.062" ........ 1

To set outfeed table height:

  1. DISCONNECT JOINTER FROM POWER!
  2. Remove cutterhead guard, fence, and rear stand panel.
  3. Knife-Style Cutterhead Only: Correctly set knife heights (refer to Setting Knives (G0490) on Page 37 for detailed instructions).
  4. Loosen outfeed table lock located at front of machine, and loosen jam nuts and positive stop bolts located at back of machine just behind outfeed table (see Figure 57).
