Safety Instructions For Jointer/Planer (continued)

•When jointing or rabbeting:

-Never joint or bevel workpieces less than 3/4 inch wide or 1/4 inch thick.

-Always use the hold-down/push-blocks when jointing or beveling wood whenever possible.

-When rabbeting, always make cuts in 1/8" incre- ments or less.

•When planing or beveling:

-Never plane wood thinner than 1/2 inch.

-Always use hold-down/push-blocks when planing wood.

-Never cut Freehand. Guide your workpiece solidly against the fence and table top.

-Make sure there’s no debris between the workpiece and its supports.

Use extra caution with large, very small or awkward workpieces.

•Use extra supports (tables, saw horses, blocks, etc.) for any workpiece large enough to tip when not held down to the table top. Never use another person as additional support or to help feed, support or pull the workpiece.

•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.

Whenever Jointer/Planer Is Running

WARNING: Don't allow familiarity (gained from fre- quent use of your jointer/planer) cause a careless mis- take. Always remember that a careless fraction of a second is enough to cause a severe injury.

•Before actually cutting with the jointer/planer, let it run for a while. If it makes an unfamiliar noise or vibrates a lot, stop immediately. Turn the jointer/planer off. Unplug the jointer/planer. Do not restart until finding and correcting the problem.

Keep Children Away.

•Make sure bystanders are clear of the jointer/planer and workpiece.

Don’t Force Tool.

•Let the cutter head reach full speed before cutting.

•Feed the workpiece into the jointer/planer only fast enough to let the tool cut without bogging down or binding.

Before freeing jammed material.

•Turn switch “OFF”.

•Wait for all moving parts to stop.

•Unplug the jointer/planer.
