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).

Torx screws.
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.
8.
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 rota-
tional sequencing.
9.
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 thread-
ed hole as you install insert and force it to
raise slightly, making it out of alignment.

Calibrating Depth
Scale
The depth scale can be calibrated or "zeroed" to
make sure the cutting depth shown on the scale
matches the actual cutting depth (per pass).
To calibrate the depth scale:
1.
Set the outfeed table height as described in
Setting Outfeed Table Height.
2.
Place a straightedge across the infeed and
outfeed tables.
3.
Adjust the infeed table until it is level with the
outfeed table, as shown below.
4.
Using a screwdriver, precisely adjust the
scale pointer to "0".

Note: If necessary, loosen upper jam nut and stop
screw (see To adjust positive-stop screws on
Page 28) to prevent obstruction of infeed table
movement during Step 3.
