I bought a PM 60B 8" jointer last year, which I really haven't had a lot of time to use as of yet. I was out in the shop today checking on the alignment of the tool's various surfaces, using a feeler gauge and my Veritas 50" aluminum straight edge. The jointer seems reasonably true as delivered, except that there is a pronounced dip in the middle of the fence. Beginning about 3" from each end of the fence, a .005" feeler guage slides easily under the straight edge over the entire mid-section (a .006" one does not). Is this excessive, or of any practical concern?
Thanks
