operator.and.bystanders.MUST.completely.heed.the.hazards.and.warnings.below.
GRAIN.DIRECTION.
Jointing against the grain or
end grain can increase the risk of kickback.
It also requires more cutting force, which
produces chatter or excessive chip out.
Always joint or surface plane with the grain.
CUTTING.LIMITATIONS.
Cutting workpieces
that do not meet minimum dimension
requirements can result in kickback or
accidental contact with cutterhead. Never
perform jointing, planing, or rabbeting cuts
on pieces smaller than specified in data sheet.
PUSH.BLOCKS.
Push blocks reduce risk of
accidental cutterhead contact with hands.
Always use push blocks when planing
materials less than 3
"
high or wide. Never
pass your hands directly over cutterhead
without a push block.
WORKPIECE.SUPPORT.
Poor workpiece support
or loss of workpiece control while feeding
will increase risk of kickback or accidental
contact with cutterhead. Support workpiece
with fence continuously during operation.
Support long stock with auxiliary table if
necessary.
FEED.WORKPIECE.PROPERLY..
Kickback or
accidental cutterhead contact may result if
workpiece is fed into cutterhead the wrong
way. Allow cutterhead to reach full speed
before feeding. Never start jointer with
workpiece touching cutterhead. Always feed
workpiece from infeed side to outfeed side
without stopping until cut is complete. Never
move workpiece backwards while feeding.
SECURE.KNIVES/INSERTS.
Loose knives or
improperly set inserts can be thrown from
cutterhead with dangerous force. Always
verify knives/inserts are secure and properly
adjusted before operation. Straight knives
should never project more than
1
⁄
8
"
(0.125
"
)
from cutterhead body.
KICKBACK.
Occurs when workpiece is ejected
from machine at high rate of speed.
Kickback injuries occur from getting struck
by workpiece or hands being pulled into
cutterhead. To reduce risk of kickback,
only use proper workpieces, safe feeding
techniques, and proper machine setup.
GUARD.REMOVAL.
Operating jointer without
guards exposes operator to knives/inserts
and other hazardous moving parts. Except
when rabbeting, never operate jointer or
allow it to be connected to power if any
guards are removed. Turn jointer
OFF
and disconnect power before clearing
any shavings or sawdust from around
cutterhead. After rabbeting or maintenance
is complete, immediately replace all
guards and ensure they are properly
installed/adjusted before resuming regular
operations.
DULL/DAMAGED.KNIVES/INSERTS.
Dull or
damaged knives/inserts increase risk of
kickback and cause poor workpiece finish.
Only use sharp, undamaged knives/inserts.
OUTFEED.TABLE.ALIGNMENT.
Setting outfeed
table too high can cause workpiece to hit
table or get stuck while feeding. Setting
outfeed table too low may cause workpiece
to rock or shift while feeding. Both results
will increase risk of kickback. Always keep
outfeed table even with knives/inserts at
highest point during rotation.
INSPECTING.STOCK.
Impact injuries or kickback
may result from using improper workpieces.
Thoroughly inspect and prepare workpiece
before cutting. Verify workpiece is free of
nails, staples, loose knots or other foreign
material.
MAXIMUM.CUTTING.DEPTH
. To reduce risk of
kickback, never cut deeper than
1
⁄
8
