I just acquired a used Delta JT-360 jointer. Any opinions on its performance? Any tips on it's care and feeding?

TIA

JJ, I think that's the model I have though I'm not able to get a look at it this moment.

Works pretty good once you get it set up (fence & knives). The dust collector exhaust is pretty average; seems to drop as many chips as it sucks into the hose.

For my needs it works as good as I can ask. I usually take light passes for cleaning up billets or joining plates before planing.

For the past two years it has gotten pretty good usage and cuts cleanly on everything except the most figured maples.
