To Reduce the Risk of Injury From Jams, Slips Or Thrown Pieces (Kickbacks Or Throwbacks) • Use this jointer/planer to cut only wood. • Use push blocks or push sticks whenever possible. • Plan your hand placement so your fingers will not be anywhere a sudden slip could cause them to slide or fall into the cutter head. When using only one holddown/push-block to feed the wood, do not put your other hand on the jointer/planer, workpiece, or holddown/push-block.
Safety Instructions For Jointer/Planer (continued) • Never cut more than one workpiece at a time. • Never turn your jointer/planer “ON” before clearing everything except the workpiece and related support devices off the table. • Before trying a new or little used operation, carefully plan your hand placement. Make sure you have proper hold-down/push-blocks, jigs, fixtures, stops, etc. ready to use.
Rabbet A notch cut into the edge of workpiece. Resin A sticky, sap based substance that has hardened. Revolutions Per Minute (RPM) The number of turns completed by a spinning object in one minute. Throw-Back Throwing of pieces in a manner similar to a kickback. Trailing End The workpiece end last cut by the knives. Workpiece The item on which the cutting operation is being performed. The surfaces of a workpiece are commonly referred to as faces, ends and edges.
Motor Specifications and Electrical Requirements (continued) Do not modify the plug provided. If it will not fit the outlet, have the proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician. A temporary adapter may be used to connect this plug to a 2-pole outlet, as shown. This temporary adapter should be used only until a properly grounded outlet can be installed by a qualified electrician.
Motor Safety Protection IMPORTANT: To reduce the risk of motor damage, this motor should be blown out or vacuumed frequently to keep sawdust from interfering with normal motor ventilation. 1. Connect this tool to a power source with the appropriate voltage for your model and a 15-amp branch circuit with a 15-amp time delay fuse or circuit breaker. Using the wrong size fuse can damage the motor. 2. If the motor won’t start, turn off the power switch immediately and unplug the tool.

Getting to Know Your Jointer/Planer 6 Fence 8 Infeed Table 2 Cutter Head Guard 13 Stop Pin 12 On-Off Switch 5 Fence Tilt (Bevel) Knob 7 Outfeed Table 4 90° and 45° Fence Stops 10 Nameplate Model/Serial 3 Fence Sliding Knob 1 Depth of Cut Handwheel 9 Table 11 Belt Guard Lock Screw WARNING: For your own safety always lock the switch “OFF” when jointer/planer is not in use. Remove key and keep it in a safe place, also, in the event of a power failure, turn switch off. Lock it and remove the key.
CAUTION: Before turning switch “ON”, make sure the blade guard is correctly installed and operating properly. 12. On-Off Switch Turns the tool on and off. The “yellow button” is a key. When it is inserted in the switch lever, the power may be turned ON and OFF. When it is removed, the power cannot be turned ON. The on-off switch is shaped to make turning it ON accidentally less likely. In an emergency, it can be turned OFF by striking it with the palm of the hand.
Alignments Cutter Knife Alignment/Adjustments WARNING: The cutter knives are extremely sharp. Do not let your hand or fingers touch the cutter knives. Tools Needed 8mm open end wrench (Supplied). • Unplug jointer/planer. WARNING: To reduce the risk of injury from accidental start, made sure switch is “OFF” and plug is not connected to power source outlet. Checking Alignment Note: The blades are adjusted at the factory, and should not require adjustment. 1. Assemble knife setting gauge. a.
Cutter Knife Sharpening The knives can be honed individually with an ordinary oilstone. Make sure your oilstone is not worn in the center. It must be flat. Be sure to remove the burr on the flat side. 38° 11/16 In Wide WARNING: The cutter knives are extremely sharp. Do not let your hand or fingers touch the cutter knives. New Blade If the knives are nicked they must be replaced or reground. They can be reground several times until they become 9/16" wide.
Alignments (continued) Outfeed Table Adjustment To check this alignment proceed as follows: WARNING: To reduce the risk of injury from accidental start, made sure switch is “OFF” and plug is not connected to power source outlet. 1. Raise or lower the outfeed table as required, by turning the outfeed table knob, until the outfeed table is exactly level with the knives of the cutterhead at their highest point of revolution. 2. Place a straightedge on the outfeed table, extending over the cutterhead as shown.
Adjusting Table Gibs “Gibs” are provided to take up all play between the mating dovetail ways of the base and infeed and outfeed tables of your jointer. Proper gib adjustment is necessary for the correct functioning of the jointer. The gibs on your machine were adjusted at the factory and should require no further adjustment. However, to adjust the gibs proceed as follows: 1. Loosen each of the lock nuts. Make sure the table locks are also loose. 2.
Safety Instructions for Basic Jointer/Planer Operation Before Each Use • Don’t force the tool. It will do the job better and safer at the rate for which is was designed. Push blocks and push sticks Two plastic push blocks are supplied with your jointer/ planer. Use them when practical. The rubber sole of the push blocks give better traction with the wood than your hands do. If they become slippery, they can be cleaned with rubbing alcohol, paint thinner or sandpaper. Inspect your jointer/planer.
• Use The Right Tool. Don’t force tool or attachment to do a job it was not designed for. Inspect your work area. • Keep work area clean. • Cluttered areas and benches invite accidents. Floor must not be slippery from wax or sawdust. • To reduce the risk of burns or other fire damage, never use the jointer/planer near flammable liquids, vapors or gases. • Before using the jointer/planer, clear the table of all objects not needed to feed the workpiece.
Safety Instructions for Basic Jointer/Planer Operation (con’t.) Before freeing jammed material. • Turn switch “OFF”. • Wait for all moving parts to stop. • Unplug the jointer/planer. • Check blades, cutter and fence for proper alignment before starting again. Before Leaving the jointer/planer. • Turn the jointer/planer off. • Wait for jointer/planer to come to a complete stop. • Unplug the jointer/planer. • Make workshop child-proof. Lock the shop. Disconnect master switches. Remove the yellow switch key.
Planing WARNING: Always use push blocks when planing. • Follow all instructions above for “Feeding the Workpiece”. • Keep fingers close together so they do not hang down toward the knives. Planing is removing wood from the widest surface or face of a board so as to make it flat and smooth. Planing on a jointer will not necessarily make the face that is planed square or parallel to any other surface. Planing on a jointer only smooths and flattens.
Basic Jointer/Planer Cutting Operations (continued) Rabbeting Face Rabbet Rabbeting is very similar to jointing except that only part of the edge is jointed. Do not remove the guard for rabbeting. To rabbet hold the workpiece firmly against the fence. Do not make cuts greater than 1/8". To make a deeper rabbet, make cuts in 1/8" deep increments. Because the workpiece is supported by the outfeed table during a rabbet cut, the infeed table must be lowered after each pass.
WARNING: If the hold-down/push-blocks tend to slip while feeding, clean rubber surface immediately with sandpaper. When planing wood between 1/2 inch and 3/4 of an inch thick and narrower than the hold-down/push-block, tilt the hold-down/push-block so that it clears the tip of the cutter guard while feeding. Never plane wood that is thinner than 1/2 inch. It is apt to split or shatter and thus has a greater tendency to kickback. Sliding Fence Operation WARNING: Moving parts can injure.
Maintenance and Lubrication Maintenance Disassembly of the motor should only be done by an Authorized Service Center. Disregarding this may void your tools warranty. NOTE: The speed of this motor cannot be regulated or changed. Motors used on woodworking tools are particularly susceptible to the accumulation of sawdust and wood chips and should be blown out or “vacuumed” frequently to prevent interference with normal motor ventilation.
