(G0946)

(G0945)

(G0947)

This manual provides critical safety instructions on the proper setup,

operation, maintenance, and service of this machine/tool. Save this

document, refer to it often, and use it to instruct other operators.

Failure to read, understand and follow the instructions in this manual

may result in fire or serious personal injury—including amputation,

electrocution, or death.

The owner of this machine/tool is solely responsible for its safe use.

This responsibility includes but is not limited to proper installation in

a safe environment, personnel training and usage authorization,

proper inspection and maintenance, manual availability and compre-

hension, application of safety devices, cutting/sanding/grinding tool

integrity, and the usage of personal protective equipment.

The manufacturer will not be held liable for injury or property damage

from negligence, improper training, machine modifications or misuse.

Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and

other construction activities contains chemicals known to the State

of California to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive

harm. Some examples of these chemicals are:

• Lead from lead-based paints.

• Crystalline silica from bricks, cement and other masonry products.

• Arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated lumber.

Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you

do this type of work. To reduce your exposure to these chemicals:

Work in a well ventilated area, and work with approved safety equip-

ment, such as those dust masks that are specially designed to filter

out microscopic particles.

Controls &

Components

Main Components

Refer to the following figures and descriptions to

become familiar with the basic controls and com-

ponents of this machine. Understanding these

items and how they work will help you understand

the rest of the manual and minimize your risk of

injury when operating this machine.

A. Outfeed Table: Supports workpiece after it

passes over cutterhead.

B. Cutterhead Guard: Covers cutterhead until

pushed aside by workpiece during operation.

When workpiece leaves cutterhead, guard

springs back to its starting position. DO NOT

operate jointer if guard is not functioning

properly.

C. Infeed Table: Supports workpiece before it

reaches cutterhead. Height of infeed table

relative to cutterhead determines depth of

cut.

D. Infeed Table Adjustment Knob: Adjusts

height of infeed table to control depth of cut.

E. Table Height Lock Knob: Tighten to secure

infeed table position; loosen for making

table adjustments.

F. ON/OFF Paddle Switch w/Removable Key:

Turns motor ON when moved up; turns

motor OFF when pressed down. Removal of

yellow key disables switch, preventing motor

operation.

G. Depth-of-Cut Scale: Shows depth of cut

(per pass).

H. Infeed/Outfeed Table Extensions (G0947):

Supports large workpieces beyond the length

of the infeed/outfeed tables.

Fence & Support Components

I. Fence: Supports workpiece laterally as it

moves across cutterhead; determines angle

of cut when edge or bevel joining.

J. Fence Bracket Assembly: Changes posi-

tion of fence relative to tables and secures it

in position during operation.

K. Dust Port: Connects machine to dust col-

lection system. ALWAYS remove dust port if

operating machine without dust collection!

L. Fence Slide Lock Handle: Adjusts position

of fence over tables. ALWAYS tighten lock

before beginning operations.

M. Fence Tilt Lock Handle: Secures fence tilt

angle. Fence tilt can be adjusted between

90º–135º. ALWAYS tighten lock before begin-

ning operations.
