Adjusting Gibs

The function of the table gibs is to eliminate
excessive play in the table movement. The gibs
also control how easy it will be to move the tables
up and down.

To adjust table gibs:
1.
Loosen three infeed table gib nuts on back of
jointer base (see Figure 74).

2. Oil table ways and leadscrew if needed (see
Page 36).
3.
Evenly tighten gib set screws a small amount,
then check table by moving it up and down.
Adjust set screws as needed until friction of
table movement is balanced between mini-
mal play and ease of movement.
Note: Tighter gibs reduce play but make it
harder to adjust tables.
4. Repeat Steps 1-3 with outfeed table.
