I bought a 6" Jet short bed jointer a few weeks ago. I finally got several free hours this last weekend and was able to get it completely set up. As best I can tell, everything is aligned perfectly except for the fence being off just a hair.
The infeed half of the fence is great. Approaching the end of the outfeed side, though, the upper part of the fence is tilted outwards just a hair. With an engineering square flat on the bed, I can just squeeze a piece of paper between the square and the fence, which I understand is around 0.003"-0.004". Is that within the realm of acceptability? Or should I call them up and tell them to send me a new fence?
