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 place your hand

in 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 into the outfeed

end of the machine.The workpiece will be thrown

out of the opposite end at high speeds.

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.
