Never stand on the machine. 20. Injury could occur if the
tool tips, or if you accidentally contact the cutting tool.
Never leave the machine running unattended.21. Turn
the power off. Don’t leave the machine until it comes to a
complete stop. A child or visitor could be injured.
Turn the machine "OFF", and disconnect the machine 22.
from the power source before installing or removing
accessories, changing cutters, adjusting or changing
set-ups. When making repairs, be sure to lock the start
switch in the “OFF” position. An accidental start-up can
cause injury.
Make your workshop childproof with padlocks, master 23.
switches, or by removing starter keys. The accidental
start-up of a machine by a child or visitor could cause
injury.
Stay alert, watch what you are doing, and use common 24.
sense. Do not use the machine when you are tired or
under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or medication. A
moment of inattention while operating power tools may
result in injury.
25.
Use of this tool can generate and
disperse dust or other airborne particles, including
wood dust, crystalline silica dust and asbestos dust.
Direct particles away from face and body. Always operate
tool in well ventilated area and provide for proper dust
removal. Use dust collection system wherever possible.
Exposure to the dust may cause serious and permanent
respiratory or other injury, including silicosis (a serious lung
disease), cancer, and death. Avoid breathing the dust, and
avoid prolonged contact with dust. Allowing dust to get
into your mouth or eyes, or lay on your skin may promote
absorption of harmful material. Always use properly fitting
NIOSH/OSHA approved respiratory protection appropriate
for the dust exposure, and wash exposed areas with soap
and water.
1. Do not operate this machine until it is completely
assembled and installed according to the instructions.
A machine incorrectly assembled can cause serious
injury.
2. Obtain advice from your supervisor, instructor, or
another qualified person if you are not thoroughly
familiar with the operation of this machine. Knowledge
is safety.
3. Follow all wiring codes and recommended electrical
connections to prevent shock or electrocution.
4. Keep knives sharp and free from rust and pitch. Dull or
rusted knives work harder and can cause kickback.
5. Tighten the infeed/outfeed tables before starting the
machine. Loss of control of the work-piece can cause
serious injury.
6. Properly secure the blades in the cutterhead before turning
the power "ON". Loose blades may be thrown out at
high speeds.
7. Never turn the machine "ON" before clearing the table of
all objects (tools, scraps of wood, etc.). Flying debris
can cause serious injury.
8. Never turn the machine "ON" with the workpiece contacting
the cutterhead. Kickback can occur.
9. Avoid awkward operations and hand positions. A
sudden slip could cause a hand to move into the
cutterhead.
10. Keep arms, hands, and fingers away from the
cutterhead to prevent severe injury.
11. Never make cuts deeper than 1/8 inch (3.2 mm) to
prevent kickback.
12. Never joint or plane a workpiece that is shorter than
10 inches (254 mm), narrower than 3/4 inch (19 mm),
or less than 1/2 inch (12.7mm) thick. Jointing smaller
workpieces can place your hand in the cutterhead
causing severe injury.
Failure to follow these rules may result in
serious personal injury.
13. Use hold-down/push blocks for jointing or planing any
workpiece lower than the fence. Jointing or planing small
workpieces can result in kickback and severe injury.
14. Hold the workpiece firmly against the table and fence.
Loss of control of the workpiece can cause kickback
and result in serious injury.
15. Never perform "free-hand" operations. Use the fence to
position and guide the workpiece. Loss of control of the
workpiece can cause serious injury.
16. Do not attempt to perform an abnormal or little-used
operation without study and the use of adequate hold-
down/push blocks, jigs, fixtures, stops, etc.
17. Do not feed a workpiece into the outfeed end of
the machine.The workpiece will be thrown out of the
opposite end at high speeds.
18. Do not feed a workpiece that is warped, contains
knots, or is embedded with foreign objects (nails,
staples, etc.) To prevent kickback.
19. Maintain the proper relationship of infeed and
outfeed table surfaces and cutterhead knife path. Loss
of control of the work-piece can cause serious injury.
20. Properly support long or wide workpieces. Loss of control
of the workpiece can cause injury.
21. Never perform layout, assembly, or set-up work on the
table/work area when the machine is running. A sudden
slip could cause a hand to move into the cutterhead.
Severe injury can result.
22. Remove shavings only with the power "OFF" and the
cutterhead stopped to prevent serious injury.
23. Turn the machine "OFF", disconnect the machine from
the power source, and clean the table/work area before
leaving the machine. Lock the switch in the "OFF"
position to prevent unauthorized use. Someone else
might accidentally start the machine and cause injury to
themselves.
