Additional Safety for Jointers  
1. JOINTER KICKBACK. "Kickback" is when  
the workpiece is thrown off the jointer table  
by the force of the cutterhead. Always use  
push blocks and safety glasses to reduce  
the likelihood of injury from “kickback.” If  
you do not understand what kickback is,  
or how it occurs, DO NOT operate this  
machine.  
6. MAXIMUM CUTTING DEPTH. The maxi-  
1
mum cutting depth for one pass is 8".  
Never attempt any single cut deeper than  
this!  
7. JOINTING WITH THE GRAIN. Jointing  
against the grain or jointing end grain is  
dangerous and could produce chatter or  
excessive chip out. Always joint with the  
grain.  
2. CUTTERHEAD ALIGNMENT. Keep the top  
edge of the outfeed table aligned with the  
edge of the cutterhead at top dead center  
(TDC) to avoid kickback and personal inju-  
ries.  
8. KEEPING GUARDS IN PLACE. With the  
exception of rabbeting, all operations must  
be performed with the guard in place. After  
rabbeting, be sure to replace the guard.  
3. PUSH BLOCKS. Always use push blocks  
whenever surface planing. Never pass your  
hands directly over the cutterhead without a  
push block.  
9. PROPER CUTTING. When cutting, always  
keep the workpiece moving toward the  
outfeed table until the workpiece has passed  
completely over the cutterhead. Never back  
the work toward the infeed table.  
4. WORKPIECE SUPPORT. Supporting the  
workpiece adequately at all times while  
cutting is crucial for making safe cuts and  
avoiding injury. Never attempt to make a cut  
with an unstable workpiece.  
10. USING GOOD STOCK. Jointing safety  
begins with your lumber. Inspect your  
stock carefully before you feed it over the  
cutterhead. Never joint a board that has  
loose knots, nails, or staples. If you have  
any doubts about the stability or structural  
integrity of your stock, DO NOT joint it!  
5. KICKBACK ZONE. The "kickback zone"  
is the path directly through the end of the  
infeed table. Never stand or allow others to  
stand in this area during operation.  
No list of safety guidelines can be complete.  
Every shop environment is different. Always  
consider safety first, as it applies to your  
individual working conditions. Use this and  
other machinery with caution and respect.  
Failure to do so could result in serious per-  
sonal injury, damage to equipment, or poor  
work results.  
Like all machines there is danger associated  
with this machine. Accidents are frequently  
caused by lack of familiarity or failure to pay  
attention. Use this machine with respect  
and caution to lessen the possibility of  
operator injury. If normal safety precautions  
are overlooked or ignored, serious personal  
injury may occur.

SECTION 2: CIRCUIT REQUIREMENTS  
Grounding  
220V Single-Phase  
In the event of an electrical short, grounding  
reduces the risk of electric shock. The grounding  
wire in the power cord must be properly connect-  
ed to the grounding prong on the plug; likewise,  
the outlet must be properly installed and ground-  
ed. All electrical connections must be made in  
accordance with local codes and ordinances.  
Serious personal injury could occur if you  
connect the machine to the power source  
before you have completed the set up pro-  
cess. DO NOT connect the machine to the  
power source until instructed to do so.  
Electrocution or fire could  
result if this machine is  
The Model G0609 motor draws the following  
not grounded correctly  
Amperage Draw  
amps under maximum load:  
or if your electrical con-  
figuration does not com-  
ply with local and state  
Motor Draw at 220V .............................. 18 Amps  
codes. Ensure compliance  
by checking with a quali-  
fied electrician!  
Circuit Requirements  
We recommend using a dedicated circuit for this  
machine. You MUST connect your machine to a  
grounded circuit that is rated for the amperage  
given below. Never replace a circuit breaker on  
an existing circuit with one of higher amper-  
age without consulting a qualified electrician to  
ensure compliance with wiring codes. If you are  
unsure about the wiring codes in your area or  
you plan to connect your machine to a shared  
circuit, consult a qualified electrician.  
Extension Cords  
We do not recommend the use of extension  
cords. Instead, arrange the placement of your  
equipment and the installed wiring to eliminate  
the need for extension cords.  
If you find it absolutely necessary to use an  
extension cord at 220V with your machine:  
220V Circuit...........................................20 Amps  
Use at least a 12 gauge cord that does not  
exceed 50 feet in length!  
Plug/Receptacle Type  
Recommended Plug/Receptacle....NEMA L6-20  
The extension cord must also contain a  
ground wire and plug pin.  
A qualified electrician MUST size cords over  
50 feet long to prevent motor damage.

Clean Up  
Site Considerations  
The unpainted surfaces are coated with a waxy  
oil to protect them from corrosion during ship-  
ment. Remove this protective coating with a sol-  
vent cleaner or citrus-based degreaser such as  
Grizzly’s G7895 Degreaser. To clean thoroughly,  
some parts may need to be removed. For opti-  
mum performance from your machine, make  
sure you clean all moving parts or sliding  
contact surfaces that are coated. Avoid chlo-  
rine-based solvents, such as acetone or brake  
parts cleaner, as they may damage painted sur-  
faces should they come in contact. Always follow  
the manufacturer’s instructions when using any  
type of cleaning product.  
Floor Load  
Refer to the Machine Data Sheet for the weight  
and footprint specifications of your machine.  
Some residential floors may require additional  
reinforcement to support both the machine and  
operator.  
Machine Placement  
Consider existing and anticipated needs, size of  
material to be processed through each machine,  
and space for auxiliary stands, work tables or  
other machinery when establishing a location for  
your new machine. See Figure 5 for the minimum  
working clearances.  
Gasoline and petroleum  
products have low flash  
points and could cause  
an explosion or fire if  
used to clean machinery.  
DO NOT use gasoline or  
petroleum products to  
clean the machinery.  
�  
���  
��  
�  
 
�  
Many of the solvents  
commonly used to clean  
machinery can be toxic  
when inhaled or ingest-  
ed. Lack of ventilation  
while using these sol-  
vents could cause seri-  
ous personal health risks  
or fire. Take precautions  
from this hazard by only  
using cleaning solvents  
in a well ventilated area.  
Figure 5. Minimum working clearances.  
Unsupervised children and  
visitors inside your shop  
could cause serious per-  
sonal injury to themselves.  
Lock all entrances to the  
shop when you are away and  
DO NOT allow unsupervised  
children or visitors in your  
shop at any time!

Moving & Placing  
Jointer  
Mounting to Shop  
Floor  
Although not required, we recommend that you  
mount your new machine to the floor. Because  
this is an optional step and floor materials may  
vary, floor mounting hardware is not included.  
Generally, you can either bolt your machine to  
the floor or mount it on machine mounts. Both  
options are described below. Whichever option  
you choose, it is necessary to level your machine  
with a precision level.  
The Model G0609 is  
an extremely heavy  
machine. Serious per-  
sonal injury may occur if  
safe moving methods are  
not followed. To be safe,  
you will need assistance  
and power equipment  
when moving the ship-  
ping crate and remov-  
ing the machine from the  
crate.  
Bolting to Concrete Floors  
Lag shield anchors with lag bolts (Figure 7)  
and anchor studs are two popular methods for  
anchoring an object to a concrete floor. We sug-  
gest you research the many options and methods  
for mounting your machine and choose the best  
that fits your specific application.  
The Model G0609 requires the use of lifting  
equipment such as a forklift, engine hoist, or  
boom crane. DO NOT lift the machine by hand.  
If you are unsure how to lift this jointer, consult a  
qualified professional.  
Anchor Stud  
To lift the jointer:  
1. Wrap lifting straps around the infeed and  
outfeed tables. Position the straps as close  
to the base as possible to prevent damaging  
the tables.  
Lag Shield & Bolt  
2. With lifting straps positioned evenly, lift the  
jointer (Figure 6) off of the pallet and onto  
the floor.  
Figure 7. Typical fasteners for mounting to  
concrete floors.  
NOTICE  
Anchor studs are stronger and more per-  
manent alternatives to lag shield anchors;  
however, they will stick out of the floor,  
which may cause a tripping hazard if you  
decide to move your machine.

Fence  
Make sure the fence, carriage, and table have  
been thoroughly cleaned of all the export grease  
before installing the fence, or the fence will not  
slide easily. The fence has a keyway slot built into  
the underside of it that fits over the key on the  
table. These keep the fence perpendicular to the  
cutterhead during adjustments.  
Figure 8. Installing fence bracket.  
The fence is heavy.  
Seek assistance when  
lifting it onto the jointer  
stand.  
2. With the help of an assistant, lift the fence  
assembly over the fence bracket, slip the  
sliding bushing (Figure 9) into the fence  
bracket slot, and make sure the key and key-  
way slot fit snugly.

When correctly set, the knife will barely touch  
the straightedge, as shown in Figure 15.  
Figure 13. Knife setting jig assembly.  
—If your outfeed table is correctly set, no  
adjustments are necessary.  
—If the knife lifts the straightedge off the  
table or it is below the straightedge, then  
the outfeed table must be re-set. Refer to  
Setting Outfeed Table Height on Page  
39.  
Checking Outfeed  
Table Height  
The outfeed table MUST be level with the knives  
when they are at top-dead-center or the workpiece  
cannot be feed across the jointer safely. The  
outfeed table height is factory set, but we recom-  
mend that you check it to make sure that it didn’t  
change during shipping.  
�  
To check the outfeed table height:  
���  
���  
1. Place a straightedge on the outfeed table so  
it extends over the cutterhead.  
2. Rotate the cutterhead pulley until one of the  
knives is at top-dead-center (TDC), as illus-  
trated in Figure 14.

Dust Port  
Test Run  
Once the assembly is complete, test run your  
machine to make sure it runs properly.  
DO NOT operate the Model G0609 with-  
out an adequate dust collection system.  
This machine creates substantial amounts  
of wood dust while operating. Failure to use  
a dust collection system can result in short  
and long-term respiratory illness.  
If, during the test run, you cannot easily locate  
the source of an unusual noise or vibration, stop  
using the machine immediately, then review the  
Troubleshooting on Page 32.  
If you still cannot remedy a problem, contact our  
Tech Support at (570) 546-9663 for assistance.  
The dust port is installed at the factory, so just  
attach it to an adequate dust collection system.  
To test run the machine:  
Recommended CFM at Dust Port:.... 615 CFM  
Do not confuse this CFM recommendation with  
the rating of the dust collector. To determine the  
CFM at the dust port, you must take into account  
many variables, including the CFM rating of the  
dust collector, the length of hose between the  
dust collector and the machine, the amount of  
branches or wyes, and the amount of other open  
lines throughout the system. Explaining this cal-  
culation is beyond the scope of this manual. If you  
are unsure of your system, consult an expert or  
purchase a good dust collection "how-to" book.  
1. Connect the machine to the power source.  
2. Twist the STOP button so it pops out.  
3. Make sure you have read the safety instruc-  
tions at the beginning of the manual and that  
the machine is setup properly.  
4. Make sure all tools and objects used during  
set up are cleared away from the machine.  
5. Turn the machine ON.  
6. Press the STOP button, then restart the  
jointer.  
7. Listen to and watch for abnormal noises or  
actions. The machine should run smoothly  
with little or no vibration or rubbing noises.  
—Immediately turn the jointer OFF if you  
suspect any problems, and refer to Page  
32 to troubleshoot/fix any problems before  
starting the jointer again.  
If the source of an unusual noise or vibra-  
tion is not readily apparent, contact our  
Technical Support at (360) 546-9663.

Table Movement: To move the infeed table,  
loosen the table lock (Figure 17), move the table  
with the table handwheel in the preset range,  
then tighten the table lock. The outfeed table is  
preset with no range of movement allowed, so  
if it gets accidentally unlocked it will not move.  
To adjust the preset range of movement, refer to  
SECTION 7: SERVICE, Page 32 about setting  
table heights.  
Stock Inspection  
and Requirements  
Here are some rules to follow when choosing  
and jointing stock:  
DO NOT joint or surface plane stock that  
contains knots. Injury to the operator or  
damage to the workpiece can occur if the  
knots become dislodged during the cutting  
operation.  
Infeed  
Table Lock  
DO NOT joint or surface plane against the  
grain direction. Cutting against the grain  
increases the likelihood of stock kickback, as  
well as tear-out on the workpiece.  
Jointing and surface planing with the  
grain produces a better finish and is safer  
for the operator. Cutting with the grain is  
described as feeding the stock on the jointer  
so the grain points down and toward you as  
viewed on the edge of the stock (Figure 19).  
Infeed Table  
Handwheel  
Figure 17. Table control locations.  
Fence Movement: The fence has a lock handle  
that keeps it in position (Figure 18). To move the  
fence, loosen the lock handle and slide the fence  
where needed.  
Note: If the grain changes direction along the  
edge of the board, decrease the cutting depth  
and make additional passes.  
Fence Tilting: The tilt lock (Figure 18) secures  
the fence at any position in the available range.  
The stop block sets the fence tilt to 90°. Positive  
stops stop the fence at 45° inward and 45° out-  
ward, for common 45° bevel cuts. Even when the  
fence is resting against the positive stops, the tilt  
lock must be tightened before cutting.

Remove foreign objects from the stock.  
Make sure that any stock you process with  
the jointer is clean and free of any dirt,  
nails, staples, tiny rocks or any other foreign  
objects that may damage the jointer blades.  
Squaring Stock  
Squaring stock involves four steps performed  
in the order below:  
Only process natural wood fiber through  
your jointer. Never joint MDF, particle board,  
plywood, laminates or other synthetically  
made materials.  
1. Surface Plane On The Jointer—The con-  
cave face of the workpiece is surface planed flat  
with the jointer.  
Make sure all stock is sufficiently dried  
before jointing. Wood with a moisture con-  
tent over 20% will cause unnecessary wear  
on the knives and poor cutting results.  
Make sure your workpiece exceeds  
the minimum dimension requirements  
(Figures 20 & 21) before edge jointing or  
surface planing, or it may break or kick  
back during the operation!  
2. Surface Plane On a Thickness Planer—The  
opposite face of the workpiece is surface planed  
flat with a thickness planer.

To surface plane on the jointer:  
Surface Planing  
1. Read and understand SECTION 1: SAFETY,  
beginning on Page 7.  
The purpose of surface planing on the jointer is  
to make one flat face on a piece of stock (see  
Figures 22 & 23) to prepare it for surface planing  
on a thickness planer.  
2. Inspect your stock for the dangerous con-  
ditions described in Stock Inspection &  
Requirements instructions, beginning on  
Page 21.  
3. Set the cutting depth for your operation.  
NOTICE  
If you are not experienced with a jointer,  
set the depth of cut to 0", and practice  
feeding the workpiece across the tables as  
described. This procedure will better pre-  
pare you for the actual operation.  
1
Note: We suggest 32" for surface planing,  
using a more shallow depth for hard wood  
species or for wide stock.  
4. Set the fence to 90˚ and place the workpiece  
on the jointer.  
—If your workpiece is cupped (warped),  
place it so the cupped or concave side is  
face own (Figure 23) on the surface of the  
infeed table.  
5. Start the jointer.  
The step below requires you to use push  
blocks. Failure to use push blocks when  
surface planing may result in cutterhead  
contact, which will cause serious personal  
injury. Always use push blocks to protect  
your hands when surface planing on the  
jointer.  
Figure 22. Typical surface planing operation.  
6. With a push block in each hand, press the  
workpiece against the table and fence with  
firm pressure, and feed the workpiece over  
the cutterhead (Figure 22).  
Note: If your leading hand (with push block)  
gets within 4" of the cutterhead, lift it up and  
over the cutterhead, and place the push  
block on the portion of the workpiece that is  
on the outfeed table. Now, focus your pres-  
sure on the outfeed end of the workpiece  
while feeding, and repeat the same action  
with your trailing hand when it gets within 4"  
of the cutterhead. To keep your hands safe,  
DO NOT let them get closer than 4" from the  
cutterhead when it is moving!

To rabbet cut on the jointer:  
Rabbet Cutting  
1. Read and understand SECTION 1: SAFETY,  
beginning on Page 7.  
The purpose of rabbet cutting is to remove a  
section of the workpiece edge (see Figures 28  
& 29). When combined with another rabbet cut  
edge, the rabbet joints create a simple, yet strong  
method of joining stock.  
2. Inspect your stock for the dangerous con-  
ditions described in the Stock Inspection  
instructions, beginning on Page 21.  
3. Set the cutting depth for your operation.

Inspecting Knives  
The height of the knives can be inspected with  
a straightedge to ensure that they are set evenly  
with the outfeed table at their highest point in the  
cutterhead rotation.  
—If the knives do not touch the straightedge  
or they lift it up in any of the positions, then  
those knives need to be adjusted.

Knives  
To inspect the knives:  
1. DISCONNECT JOINTER FROM POWER  
Setting the knives correctly is crucial to the prop-  
er operation of the jointer and is very important  
in keeping the knives sharp. If one knife is higher  
than the others, it will do the majority of the work,  
and thus, dull much faster than the others.  
SOURCE!  
2. Loosen the set screws shown in Figure 10,  
Page 17, remove the guard, and open the  
pulley cover.  
There are two options for setting the knives—the  
straightedge method and the knife setting jig  
method. Each option has advantages and dis-  
advantages and the correct one for you will  
become a matter of personal preference. For  
best results, the tables must be parallel with each  
other (Checking/Adjusting Table Parallelism  
on Page 37) and the outfeed table height must  
be properly set (Setting Outfeed Table Height  
on Page 39).  
3. Rotate the cutterhead pulley to get access to  
one of the cutterhead knives.  
4. Using a straightedge, check the height of  
each knife at its highest point in relation to  
the outfeed table, in each of the straightedge  
positions, as shown in Figure 42.  
Straightedge Method: A high quality straight-  
edge is held flat against the outfeed table and  
the knife heights are set to the bottom of the  
straightedge, as shown in Figure 42. Because  
the knife projection height from the cutterhead  
is dependent on the outfeed table height, the  
outfeed table must be set as described in Setting  
Outfeed Table Height on Page 39 for this meth-  
od to work correctly.  
 
�  
 
When using a straightedge to set the knives, you  
will not need to move the outfeed table once it is  
set and you will always be assured that the knives  
are even with the outfeed table in their highest  
point of rotation—even if the cutterhead is not  
parallel with the outfeed table.

The knife setting jig makes it easy to ensure that  
the knives project out of the cutterhead evenly.  
After using the knife setting jig to set the knives,  
you have to re-adjust the outfeed table height to  
ensure that it is even with the knives at their high-  
est point of rotation. If you are using the positive  
stops on the tables, they will need to also be reset  
before operation.  
To adjust/replace the knives:  
1. DISCONNECT JOINTER FROM POWER

6. Remove and clean the gibs and clean inside  
the cutterhead slot to remove all pitch or saw-  
dust. Coat the knives and gibs with a metal  
protectant (Page 27), then fit the gibs back in  
the cutterhead with the new knives.

Checking Infeed Table  
To check the infeed table parallelism:  
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.  
1. Follow all the steps for checking the outfeed  
table parallelism to first make sure that the  
outfeed table is parallel with the cutterhead.  
2. Raise the outfeed table higher than the  
cutterhead.  
Due to the complex nature of this task, we rec-  
ommend that you double check the current table  
positions to make sure that they really need to be  
adjusted before starting.  
3. Place the straightedge halfway across the  
infeed table and halfway over the outfeed  
table, and adjust the infeed table even with  
the outfeed table, as shown in Figure 50.  
The tables have four eccentric bushings under  
each corner that allow the tables to be adjusted  
parallel. These eccentric bushings are locked in  
place by piggybacked set screws (one on top of  
the other) and adjust when rotated.  
�  
���  
���  
The correct order for adjusting the table parallel-  
ism is to first adjust the outfeed table parallel with  
the cutterhead to within 0.010"-0.012", then adjust  
the infeed table parallel with the outfeed table.  
Figure 50. Infeed and outfeed tables set evenly.  
When setting the outfeed table, all measurements  
must be made from the cutterhead body—not the  
knives—or results may get skewed the next time  
you change knives.  
4. Place the straightedge in the positions shown  
in Figure 51. In each position, the straight-  
edge should sit flat against both the outfeed  
table and the infeed table.  
IMPORTANT: The steps below are intended to be  
performed in succession with the steps involved  
in checking the outfeed table. Do not continue  
until you have followed those steps.  
To adjust the table parallelism:  
1. Place the straightedge on the outfeed table  
so it hangs over the cutterhead, and lower  
the outfeed table until the straightedge just  
touches the cutterhead body, as shown in  
Figure 48 (rotate the cutterhead if neces-  
sary).  
Figure 51. Straightedge positions for checking  
infeed/outfeed table parallelism.  
—If the straightedge sits flat against both the  
infeed and outfeed table, then the tables are  
parallel. Set both table heights (Pages 39  
& 40) and replace the cutterhead guard.  
2. Remove the set screw from each of the four  
eccentric bushings (Figure 52) under the  
outfeed table, and loosen the set screws  
underneath those removed set screws.  
—If the straightedge does not sit flat against  
both the infeed and outfeed table in any  
of the positions, then follow the Adjusting  
Table Parallelism instructions.

3. Place the straightedge in one of the positions  
shown in Figure 49, and adjust the table (a  
small hammer and punch or pin-type span-  
ner wrench may be necessary to turn the  
eccentric bushings) so that the straightedge  
touches the cutterhead while lying flat across  
the outfeed table. Repeat this step with each  
of the remaining straightedge positions as  
many times as necessary until the outfeed  
table is parallel with the cutterhead to within  
0.010"-0.012".  
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.

4. Loosen the outfeed table lock located at the  
front of the machine, and loosen the jam nuts  
and positive stop bolts located at the back of  
the machine (see Figure 47).  
7. Place the straightedge in one of the posi-  
tions shown in Figure 51, and adjust the  
eccentric bushings under the infeed table so  
the straightedge lies flat against both tables.  
Repeat this step with each of the remaining  
straightedge positions as many times as nec-  
essary until the infeed table is parallel with  
the outfeed table.  
8. Tighten/replace the set screws in the eccen-  
tric bushings on the infeed table.

5. Place the straightedge on the outfeed table  
so it hangs over the cutterhead, and lower  
the outfeed table until the straightedge is  
0.062" (116") above the cutterhead body, as  
determined by using the feeler gauges (see  
Figure 53).  
Setting Infeed Table  
The infeed table on the Model G0609 has  
positive stop bolts that, when properly set up,  
allow the operator to quickly adjust the infeed  
table between finish/final cuts and shaping/heavy  
cuts.  
We recommend setting the minimum depth of cut

to ⁄32" and the maximum depth of cut to 8" for  
1
most operations. DO NOT exceed 8" cut per  
pass on this machine or kickback and serious  
injury may occur!  
���  
���  
Each positive stop bolt (Figure 54) controls the  
top or bottom range of the table movement. The  
jam nuts lock the positive stop bolts in position so  
they won't move during operation.

the belts. A worn or damaged V-belt will not pro-  
vide optimum power transmission from the motor  
to the drum and feed belt.  
Pulley alignment is another important factor in  
power transmission and belt life. The pulleys  
should be parallel to each other and in the same  
plane (coplaner) for optimum performance.  
Each pulley can be adjusted by loosening the  
motor mount fasteners, sliding the motor in or out,  
and retightening the fasteners to lock the motor  
pulley in place.  
V-belt removal and replacement is simply a mat-  
ter of loosening the V-belts, rolling them off of  
the pulleys, replacing them with new belts, then  
retensioning them.

the brackets shown in Figure 63.  
5. Shift the motor horizontally as needed to align  
the motor pulley with the cutterhead pulley.  
6. Tighten the fasteners that hold the motor to  
the brackets. V-belts should be parallel and  
aligned as shown in Figure 62.

they are coplanar (parallel and aligned) with  
each other.
