BASIC JOINTER=-PLANER OPERATION
For your safety do not exceed a 1t16" deep cut on a planing
operation for work pieces wider than 1..1/2" For work pieces less
than 1-1t2", a 118" cut can be taken at a stow feed rate
This Jo}nter-PJaner is designed with a special cutter head and
internat baffle that blows the sawdust and chips from the rear of
the machine To keep this system operating properly, the motor
speed should be maintained. A feed rate that is too fast will slow
the motor down resulting in a poor cut and poor chfp discharge.
The type of wood, wood grain, and moisture content of the wood
all affect an acceptable feed rate
,_CAUTtON: MAKE SURE ALL SiX BLADE LOCKING
SCREWS ARE TIGHTENED SECURELY BEFORE AT-
TEMPTING TO TURN THE MACHINE'ON" OR ATTEMPT-
ING ANY OPERATION
For your own safety, ALWAYS use hold downtpush blocks when
JOINTING wood that is NARROWER than 3 in.. or when
PLANING wood that is THINNER than 3 in.
Do not plane, joint or bevet wood shorter than 12 in Matertai this
short is more difficult to control while being cuL Small pieces of
wood can tip over on the tables or into the cutterhead and can be
kicked back toward you
For best resutts, take light cuts For average planing, jointtng, or
beveling, a cut between 1132 and 1t16 in. deep wil! produce the
best resutts ....
SETTING THE GUARD STOP
CAUTION: MAKE SURE THE SWITCH iS IN THE OFF POSI-
TION AND THE CORD UNPLUGGED BEFORE SETTING THE
GUARD STOP.
The guard stop assembly allows you to limit the cutter guard open-
ing during operation and can be adjusted to prevent the cutter guard
from opening when the JolntedPtaner is not in use.
As a Safety Cover
When the JointerlPlaner is not in use, rotate the guard stop and
knob clockwise until it contacts the cutter guard and lock the knob.
During Operation
1. With the Jointer/Planer switch in the off position and the cord
unplugged place a workpiece of the size to be used on the
infeed table
2 Loosen the guard stop knob and pass the workplece between
the fence and the cutter guard and through the cutter area
until the cutter guard is rotated as far as this workplece wi!l
require
3 Rotate the guard stop and knob clockwise until it contacts the
cutter guard and lock the knob To prevent binding or pinchlng,
some clearance will be required between the guard stop and
the cutter guard..
4 The guard stop is now set to cut workpiece of the same width
as the sample used in the set up..
5 Be sure to use this procedure whenever using the Jointerf
Planer and lock the cutter guard in the fuily closed position
when not in use to prevent Injury to anyone unfamiliar with this
tooi_ Failure to do so may result in serious injury
FEEDING THE WORK PIECE
Hoid the board firmty DOWN on both tables and AGAINST the fence
keep fingers close together
Feed the board at a continuous even rate of speed until the cut is
made along the entire length of the board Any hesitation or stop-
ping could cause a "step" to be cut on the edge of the board which
would cause the board to ride up on the outfeed table resulting in a
"crooked" edge on the board

AGA|NST THF_ GRA}N
WORK PIECE _ FEED
ROTATION
Always feed WITH THE GRAIN whenever possible. If the nature of
the work ptece is such that it must be fed AGAINST THE GRAIN,
take very light c[Jts and feed siowiy.
Start with the left hand in the forward position. As the RIGHT hand
passes over the cutterhead, remove the LEFT hand ,.CONTINUE
feeding while placing the LEFT hand behind the RIGHT Continue
feeding in this manner "hand over hand," until the entire length of
the board is cut Pressure should be applied over the cutterhead
and outfeed table
DO NOT FEED TOO FAST A slow steady rate of feed produces a
smooth accurate cut.. Feeding too fast causes a "rippled" cut..
makes it difficult to guide the workpiece accurately and could be
hazardous
