DO NOT
begin cleaning up until you have read and
understand all of the clean up instructions.
DO NOT USE FLAMMABLE MATERIALS TO
CLEAN JOINTER.
CLEANING
With the machine unplugged, blow off motor with low
pressure air to remove dust or dirt. Air pressure
above 50 P.S.I. should not be used as high-pres-
sured air may damage insulation. The operator
should always wear a respirator and eye protection
when using compressed air.
Do not allow chips and dust to accumulate under
jointer. Keep area clean and in safe order.
MAINTENANCE
Turn the power switch “OFF” and unplug the power
cord from its power source prior to any maintenance.
LUBRICATION
The jointer has sealed lubricated bearings in the motor
housing that do not require any additional lubrication
from the operator.
Repairs to the jointer should be performed by trained
personnel only. Contact your nearest Steel City Dealer
for authorized service. Unauthorized repairs or replace-
ment with non-factory parts could cause serious injury
to the operator and damage to the jointer.
