(% AF@EK<IB@:B98:B%“Kickback” is when the workpiece is thrown off the jointer table by the force of the cutterhead. Always use push blocks and safety glasses to reduce the likelihood of injury from “kickback.” If you do not understand what kickback is, or how it occurs, DO NOT operate this machine.
)% :LKK<I?<8;8C@>ED<EK%Keep the top edge of the outfeed table aligned with the edge of the knife at top dead center (TDC) to avoid kickback and personal injuries.
*% GLJ?9CF:BJ%Always use push blocks whenever surface planing. Never pass your hands directly over the cutterhead without a push block.
+% NFIBG@<:< JLGGFIK% Proper workpiece support while cutting is crucial for making safe cuts and avoiding injury. Never attempt to make a cut with an unstable workpiece.
,% B@:B98:BQFE<%The “kickback zone” is the path directly through the end of the infeed table. Never stand or allow others to stand in this area during operation.
.% AF@EK@E>N@K?K?<>I8@E%Jointing against the grain or jointing end grain is dangerous and could produce chatter or excessive chip out. Always joint with the grain.
/% B<<G@E>>L8I;J@EGC8:<%All operations must be performed with the guard in place.
0% GIFG<I:LKK@E>%When cutting, always keep the workpiece moving toward the outfeed table until the workpiece has passed completely over the cutterhead. Never move the workpiece backwards toward the infeed table, or the risk of kickback will be extreme.
('%LJ@E>>FF;JKF:B%Jointing safety begins with your lumber. Inspect your stock carefully before you feed it over the cutterhead. Never joint a board that has loose knots, nails, or staples. If you have any doubts about the stability or structural integrity of your stock, DO NOT joint it!
