ADDITIONAL SAFETY RULES FOR JOINTERS

1. DO NOT OPERATE THIS MACHINE until it is

completely assembled and installed according to the

instructions. A machine incorrectly assembled can

cause serious injury.

2. OBTAIN ADVICE from your supervisor, instructor, or

another qualified person if you are not thoroughly

familiar with the operation of this machine.

Knowledge is safety.

3. FOLLOW ALL WIRING CODES and recommended

electrical connections to prevent shock or

electrocution.

4. KEEP KNIVES SHARP and free from rust and pitch.

Dull or rusted knives work harder and can cause

kickback.

5. TIGHTEN THE INFEED/OUTFEED TABLES before

starting the machine. Loss of control of the work-

piece can cause serious injury.

6. PROPERLY SECURE THE BLADES IN THE CUTTERHEAD

before turning the power “ON”. Loose blades may be

thrown out at high speeds.

7. NEVER TURN THE MACHINE “ON” before clearing the

table of all objects (tools, scraps of wood, etc.). Flying

debris can cause serious injury.

8. NEVER TURN THE MACHINE “ON” with the workpiece

contacting the cutterhead. Kickback can occur.

9. AVOID AWKWARD OPERATIONS AND HAND

POSITIONS. A sudden slip could cause a hand to

move into the cutterhead.

10. KEEP ARMS, HANDS, AND FINGERS away from

the cutterhead to prevent severe injury.

11. NEVER MAKE CUTS deeper than 1/8" (3.2mm) to

prevent kickback.

12. NEVER JOINT OR PLANE A WORKPIECE that is

shorter than 10" (254mm), narrower than 3/4"

(19.0MM), or less than 1/2" (12.7mm) thick. Jointing

smaller workpieces can allow your hand to contact

the cutterhead causing severe injury.

13. USE HOLD-DOWN/PUSH BLOCKS for jointing or

planing any workpiece lower than the fence. Jointing

or planing small workpieces can result in kickback

and severe injury.

14. HOLD THE WORKPIECE FIRMLY against the table

and fence. Loss of control of the workpiece can

cause kickback and result in serious injury.

15. NEVER PERFORM “FREE-HAND” OPERATIONS. Use

the fence to position and guide the workpiece. Loss

of control of the workpiece can cause serious injury.

16. DO NOT attempt to perform an abnormal or little-

used operation without study and the use of

adequate hold-down/push blocks, jigs, fixtures,

stops, etc.

17. DO NOT FEED A WORKPIECE from the outfeed

end of the machine.The workpiece will be thrown out

of the opposite end at high speeds.

18. DO NOT ATTEMPT to back out a workpiece while

the cutters are still rotating.

18. DO NOT FEED A WORKPIECE that is warped,

contains knots, or is embedded with foreign objects

(nails, staples, etc.) to prevent kickback.

19. MAINTAIN THE PROPER RELATIONSHIP OF

INFEED AND OUTFEED TABLE SURFACES and

cutterhead knife path. Loss of control of the work-

piece can cause serious injury.

20. PROPERLY SUPPORT LONG OR WIDE WORKPIECES.

Loss of control of the workpiece can cause injury.

21.

NEVER PERFORM LAYOUT, ASSEMBLY, OR SET-

UP WORK on the table/work area when the

machine is running. A sudden slip could cause a

hand to move into the cutterhead. Severe injury

can result.

22. TURN THE MACHINE “OFF”, disconnect the

machine from the power source, and clean the

table/work area before leaving the machine. LOCK

THE SWITCH IN THE “OFF” POSITION to prevent

unauthorized use. Someone else might accidentally

start the machine and cause injury to themselves.
