otherwise damage the cutter blades．
5. Avoid cutting hands while adjusting or replacing cutting blades．
6. Never place hand in file chip exhaust outlet while the machine is plugged in to the electrical
outlet.
7. After turning on the machine, allow the cutting blade to reach full speed before using.
8. Do not perform jointing operations on stock shorter than 8 inches．narrower than 3/4 Inch, or
less than 1/4 inch thick．
9. Do not perform planing operations on stock shorter than 8 inches,narrower than 3/4 inch,wider
than 6 inches, or thinner than 1/2 inch
