ADDITIONAL SAFETY RULES FOR
JOINTERS
1.
KEEP
cutterhead sharp and free of all rust and pitch.
2.
ALWAYS
use a push block when jointing stock that does
not give a reasonable distance of safety for your hands.
3.
NEVER PASS HANDS DIRECTLY OVER
CUTTERHEAD.
4.
ALWAYS MAKE SURE THAT REAR CUTTER
GUARD IS IN PLACE WHWN JOINTING
NEAR THE FRONT EDGE WITH THE FENCE
TOWARDS THE FRONT.
5.
DO NOT
performs jointing operations on material shorter
than 8", narrower than 3/4", or less than 1/4"thick.
6.
MAINTAIN
the proper relationship of outfeed table
surface and cutterhead knife.
7.
SUPPORT
the work piece adequately at all times during
operation. Maintain control of the work at all times.
8.
DO NOT
back the work toward the infeed table.
9.
DO NOT
attempt to perform an abnormal or little used
operation without study and the use of adequate
hold-down/push blocks, jigs, fixture, stops, etc.
10.
DO NOT
makes cuts deeper than 1/8" in a single pass. On
cuts more than 1-1/2" wide, adjust depth of cut to 1/16" or less
to avoid overloading machine and to minimize chance of
kick-back.
UNPACKING AND CLEANING
Carefully unpack the jointer and all loose items from the wooden
case. Remove the protective coating from the machine surfaces of
the jointer.
This coating may be removed with a soft cloth moistened with
Kerosene or solvent (do not use acetone, gasoline or lacquer thinner
for this purpose). After cleaning, cover all unpainted surfaces with a
good quality paste wax.
LIFTING
Lift the planer on its provided trunnions with a nylon strap suitable
to lift 1320 LBS. SeeFig. 1
Fig. 1
INSTALLATION REQUIREMENT
Mount machine on a solid foundation, preferably a concrete floor.
The machine area should be clean, dry, well ventilated and well
lighted.
This machine equipped with noise-eliminating table lips. Even
though, the jointer also can create noise during long period of time
of operation. The site should be one which minimizes reverberant
sound from walls, ceilings and other equipment. Electric facilities
should be installed so that they are protected from damaging and
exposing. Be sure the machine frame is properly grounded. (See
"Power Source Wiring").
Inspection:
1.
Cleaning protective coating from all areas and lubricated
parts.
2.
Before connecting power to the machine, check if all screws
are tightened, all mechanical functions work freely, and the
cutterhead turns freely without touching the table lips.
Periodical or regular inspections are required to insure that
the machine is in good condition. Don't let dust accumulate in
the electrical enclosures. Be sure that there are no loose or
worn electric connections.
Power Source Wiring
CAUTION
Make sure the electrical characteristics are the same between the
motor nameplate and the power source. Make sure the power
circuit of the jointer is properly fused and that the wire size is
correct.
IN ALL CASES, MAKE SURE THE RECEPTACLE
IS PROPERLY GROUNDED.
USE QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN FOR ELECTRICAL
CONNECTIONS.
1.
Check the motor and switch wiring diagram for proper
voltage connections before applying power to the machine.
2.
Connect wires between electric connection box and power
source. The ground wire must be connected.
Power source: R, S, T
Motor source: R1, S1, T1
Grounding: GR
