OPERATIONS

General

This machine will perform many types of operations that are beyond the scope of this manual. Many of these operations can be dangerous or deadly if performed incorrectly.

The instructions in this section are written with the understanding that the operator has the necessary knowledge and skills to operate this machine. If at any time you are experiencing difficulties performing any operation, stop using the machine!

If you are an inexperienced operator, we strongly recommend that you read books or trade articles, or seek training from an experienced jointer operator before performing any unfamiliar operations. Above all, your safety should come first!

READ and understand this entire instruc- tion manual before using this machine. Serious personal injury may occur if safety and operational information is not understood and followed. DO NOT risk your safety by not reading!

Basic Controls

This section covers the basic parts and controls used during routine operations. Refer to Figures 21–­22for basic parts and control locations.

A.ON/OFF Switch: Starts and stops the cutterhead rotation.

The switch has a yellow safety key—removing it locks the switch in the OFF position. Always remove this yellow key when leaving the work area. This prevents unsupervised persons in your shop (especially children) from starting the jointer.

B.Depth of Cut Adjustment Knob: Changes the height of the infeed table to control the depth of cut.

C.Fence Tilting Handle: Locks the fence at the desired angle. Use fence stops to quickly set the fence to 90° (perpendicular to the tables), 45° inward, or 45° outward.

D.Fence Sliding Handle: Allows you to adjust the position of the fence over the tables. ALWAYS tighten it before you begin operations. The position of the fence determines the width of the cut as the workpiece moves over the cutterhead. NEVER operate the jointer if ANY part of cutterhead is exposed on the work area.
