17.REDUCE THE RISK OF UNINTENTIONAL STARTING. Make sure switch is in “OFF” position before plugging in power cord. In the event of a power failure, move switch to the “OFF” position.

18.NEVER STAND ON TOOL. Serious injury could occur if the tool is tipped or if the cutting tool is accidentally contacted.

19.CHECK DAMAGED PARTS. Before further use of the tool, a guard or other part that is damaged should be carefully checked to ensure that it will operate properly and perform its intended function – check for alignment of moving parts, binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, mounting, and any other conditions that may affect its operation. A guard or other part that is damaged should be properly repaired or replaced.

20.DIRECTION OF FEED. Feed work into a blade or cutter against the direction of rotation of the blade or cutter only.

21.NEVER LEAVE TOOL RUNNING UNATTENDED. TURN POWER OFF. Don’t leave tool until it comes to a complete stop.

22.STAY ALERT, WATCH WHAT YOU ARE DOING, AND USE COMMON SENSE WHEN OPERATING A POWER TOOL. DO NOT USE TOOL WHILE TIRED OR UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF DRUGS, ALCOHOL, OR MEDICATION. A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.

23.MAKE SURE TOOL IS DISCONNECTED FROM POWER SUPPLY while motor is being mounted, connected or reconnected.

24.THE DUST GENERATED by certain woods and wood products can be injurious to your health. Always operate machinery in well ventilated areas and provide for proper dust removal. Use wood dust collection systems whenever possible.

ADDITIONAL SAFETY RULES FOR JOINTERS

FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE RULES MAY RESULT IN SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY.

1.WARNING: Do not operate the jointer until it is completely assembled and installed according to the instructions.

2.IF YOU ARE NOT thoroughly familiar with the oper- ation of jointers, obtain advice from your supervisor, instructor or other qualified person.

3.KEEP cutterhead sharp and free of all rust and pitch.

4.BEFORE starting machine, check cutterhead guard to make sure it is not damaged and operates freely.

5.ALWAYS make sure exposed cutterhead behind the fence is guarded, especially when jointing near the edge.

6.NEVER perform jointing or surfacing operations with the cutterhead guard removed.

7.MAKE CERTAIN the infeed and outfeed tables are tightened before starting the machine.

8.NEVER start the jointer with the workpiece contacting the cutterhead.

9.ALWAYS hold the workpiece firmly against the tables and fence.

10.NEVER perform any operation “Free-hand” which means using your hands to support or guide the workpiece. ALWAYS use the fence to position and guide the work.

11.AVOID awkward operations and hand positions where a sudden slip could cause your hand to move into the cutterhead.

12.ALWAYS use hold-down/push blocks for jointing material less than 3 inches in height or surfacing material thinner than 3 inches.

13.DO NOT perform jointing operations on material shorter than 10 inches, narrower than 3/4 inch or less than 1/2 inch thick.

14.DO NOT perform surfacing operations on material shorter than 10 inches, narrower than 3/4 inch, wider than 6 inches or less than 1/2 inch thick.

15.NEVER make jointing or surfacing cuts deeper than 1/8 inch. On cuts more than 1-1/2 inches wide, adjust depth of cut to 1/16 inch or less to avoid overloading machine and to minimize chance of kick-back (work thrown back toward you).

16.MAINTAIN the proper relationship of infeed and outfeed table surfaces and cutterhead knife path.

17.SUPPORT the workpiece adequately at all times during operation; maintain control of the work at all times.

18.DO NOT back the workpiece toward the infeed table.
