When you are not cutting at futl width of cut the fence can
be moved across the jointer/planer to take full advantage
of the "sharpness" of the blades.
When blades are new or freshly sharpened
the fence
should be positioned to the extreme rear of outfeed
and
infeed tables but not beyond the end of the b_ades.
Most of the cutting (usually jointing) will be done with the
fence in this position.
/ks the blades become
dull, the
fence can be moved toward the guard where
the blades
are sharper,
To move the fence, turn jointer/planer off. iloosen
Sliding

position,

is even or
