SYMPiuM POSSIBLE CAUSE(S)
Motor does not start 1. Defective switch
2. Defective motor
3. Low line voltage
Motor stalls (resulting in blown 1. Circuit overloaded
fuses or tripped circuit
breakers)
Motor starts slowly or fails to
come to full speed
Motor running too hot
Frequent opening of fuses or
circuit breakers
Snipe
(gouging at end of boards)
Uneven depth of cut
2. Low line voltage
3. Motor overloaded
4. Incorrect fuses on circuit breakers
5. Short circuit in motor; loose
connections or worn insulation
on lead wires
1. Defective motor windings
2. Clogged wood chips
!. Motor overloaded
2. Restricted air cimulation due to
dust accumulation
1. Motor overloaded
2. Fuses or circuit breakers do not
have sufficient capacity
3. Circuit overloaded
1. Dull blades
2. inadequate support of long boards
3. Uneven feed
1, Blade height not uniform
2. Fence not perpendicular to
jointer bed
3. Feeding wood too fast
CORRECTIVE ACTION
1.Have switch replaced.
2. Have motor replaced/repaired.
NOTE: 1 and 2 must be done t)y a qualified
service technician; Consult Sears service,
3, Correct low line voltage condition,
1,Reduce circuit load
(turn off other appliances).
2. Correct low line voltage conditions,
3. Reduce load on motor,
4. Have correct fuses on circuit breakers
installed.
5, Inspect terminals in motor for damaged
insulation and shorted wires and have
them replaced,
1. Have motor replaced/repaired.
2, Take shallow depth of cut and attach a
shop-vac to exhaust port.
1. Reduce load on motor,
2, Clean dust and restore normal air circulation.
1. Reduce load on motor
2. Have correct fuses or circuit breakers
installed.
3. Reduce circuit load
(turn off other appliances).
1. Replace or sharpen blades.
See "Sharpening Blades," page 9.
2. Support long boards.
See "Recommended Accessories," page 15.
3. See "Feeding Workpiece," page 8.
1. Adjust blade height.
See "Adjusting Blade Height," page 7.
2. See "Positioning Fence," page 6.
3. Feed wood slower.
45" cuts inaccurate 1. Fence stops not adjusted properly 1.Adjust fence stops.
See "Positioning Fence.", page 6.
2. Fence bottom not even with 2. Clean wood chips from underside of fence.
outfeed table due to wood chips
under fence
Fuzzy grain Planing wood with high moisture
Torn grain
1. Too heavy a cut
2. Blades cutting against grain
3. Dull blades
Remove high moisture content from wood by
drying.
1. Reduce depth of cut.
2. Feed work along grain.
3. Replace or sharpen blades.
