After almost two years of ownership I do a follow review on my Rikon 25-210H as well as take you through some of the steps in calibrating the outfeed and infeed tables. As the Jet JJP-12HH is the same base machine as the Rikon the information in this video will be useful to people interested in that tool as well. • Over time the outfeed table on the jointer worked its way out of adjustment, gradually creeping its way close to the cutterhead. I found out about this one day by the one cutter slamming into the table when I turned on the machine. So I was able to move the table back out of the way by turning its parallel arms but over time the table moved around more and more. • Looking at the Jet’s version of this machine (JJP-12HH), I saw that the outfeed adjustment arm also serves to lock it in place against the front cover. So I ordered the three parts from eReplacementParts.com that would give me that: • Adjusting Handle (JJP12-014) • Knob (JJP12-015) • Bracket Screw (JJP12-016) • When the parts arrived I decided to start from scratch on tuning up both jointer tables, loosening the hinge adjustment screws thus throwing away the factory adjustment plus the work I had done. I wasn’t very confident in how aligned the tables were so I wasn’t losing much. • For more information on my process check out my writeup on the topic: https://tracezero.net/2017/01/12/hitt... I have my process typed out and it's likely a lot easier to follow than trying to understand my ramblings! • If you want to skip around here are some key points: • Outfeed Lever Arm: 6:41 • Outfeed Table: 10:03 • Adjusting Stop Bolts: 14:14 • Stop Bolt Lock Nuts: 24:46 • Infeed Table: 33:40 • Outro: 1:00:44
