ROUTINE INSPECTION
Before each use, inspect the general condition of the tool. If any of the following conditions exist, do
not use until parts are replaced or the jointer is properly repaired.
Check for:
• Loose hardware or improper mounting,
• Misalignment or binding of moving parts,
• Damaged cord/electrical wiring,
• Worn or damaged blades,
• Cracked or broken parts, and
• Any other condition that may affect its safe operation
CHECK FOR WORN BLADES
The condition of blades will affect the precision of the cuts. Observe the quality of the cut that the
jointer produces to check the condition of the blades. Dull blades will tear, rather than sever wood
fibers and produce fuzzy appearances. Raised grain will occur when dull blades pound on wood that
has varying density. Raised edges will also be produced where the blades have been nicked. Blades
on this jointer should always replaced as a matched set. Keeping a spare set of blades on hand is
recommended. Replacement blades can be ordered from
