I have recently purchased a Planer/Thicknesser, I believe it is called a Jointer /planer in America. I wonder if anyone has experienced the problem I have. I have read it in a magazine that there is an issue with the jointer fence on a lot of these machines, that is having difficulty in keeping the fence 90 degrees to the table, and mine seems to be no exception, I can manage to set it at 90 degrees but as soon as I tighten the locking lever it pulls to the right leaving an inaccurate setting.
The machine is a Metabo 260 planer /thicknesser 10 inch table, while it is not at the top end of the price range, I think it is expensive for a consumer planer and would expect more accuracy than it gives, has anyone experienced this problem and if so is there any way to get roud it or does one just have to live with it.
