Note: The photos illustrations using in this manual are representative only and may not depict the actual color, labeling or accessories and may be intended to illustrate technique only.

Note: The specifications and dimensions presented here are subject to change

without prior notice due to improvements of our products.

CAUTION: Lifting and carrying operations should be carried out by skilled

workers, such as a truck operator, crane operator, etc. If a crane is used to lift the machine, attach the lifting chain carefully, making sure the machine is well balanced. Choose a location that will keep the machine free from vibration and dust from other machinery. Keep in mind that having a large clearance area around the machine is important for safe and efficient working conditions.

TRANSPORTING AND LIFTING

Follow these guidelines when lifting:

 Always lift and carry the machine with straps on each end for balance.  Use straps capable of lifting 1.5 to 2 times the weight of the machine.  Take proper precautions for handling and lifting.  Check if the load is properly balanced by lifting it an inch or two.  Lift the machine, avoiding sudden accelerations or quick changes of direction.  Locate the machine where it is to be installed, and lower slowly until it touches the floor.

Use Lift Truck To Transport Machine

 Place the wooden crate in the middle of the forks and keep at least 2” (50.8mm) distance

between the front of the forks and the wooden crate to avoid the case collapsing and secure safe transport.

 The lift truck must be able to lift at least 1.5 – 2 times the machines gross weight.  Make sure the machine is balanced. While transporting, avoid rough or jerky motion, and

maintain at least 6 ft. (2m) safe clearance zone around the transport area.

Use Gantry Or Crane To Move Machine

 Lift the machine from the base, NEVER use the jointer

tables as lifting point.

 When lifting, verify that the lifting straps are long enough

to maintain a full spread toward the outer edges of the machine as well as toward the lift hook to allow the straps to lift as straight as possible.

 DO NOT allow the lifting straps to pinch or bend lite

weight components.

 Protect the lifting straps from sharp edges and corners

that may wear or cut on the lifting straps.

WARNING: Before operating; make sure it is positioned firmly on a solid

work surface. If it tips over on you, it could cause severe injury or death.

INSTALLATION IMPORTANT:

Consider the following when looking for a suitable location to place the machine:

 Overall weight of the machine.  Weight of material being processed.  Sizes of material to be processed through the machine.  Space needed for auxiliary stands, work tables, or other machinery.  Clearance from walls and other obstacles.  Maintain an adequate working area around the machine for safety.  Have the work area well illuminated with proper lighting.  Keep the floor free of oil and make sure it is not slippery.  Operating/room temperature: +50° to +104°F (+10° to +40°C).  Remove scrap and waste materials regularly, and make sure the work area is free from

obstructing objects.

It is important to maintain free area around the machine, which is required for the working place. If any long material is machined, it is necessary to have a sufficient room in front of the machine as well behind it in the places of material input and output.

In order to maintain and operate the machine properly, it

must be set up at least 20” (508mm) away from the wall,

parallel to the work direction. Before beginning assembly, take note of the following precautions and suggestions.

 The machine is bolted to the pallet. Before attempting any of the assembly procedures

remove all of the loose parts and hardware from the inside of the machine and unbolt the machine from the pallet.

 FLOOR: This tool distributes a large amount of weight over a small area. Make certain that

the floor is capable of supporting both the weight of the machine and the operator. The floor

WARNING: DO NOT USE gasoline or other petroleum products to clean

the machine. They have low flash points and can explode or cause fire.

CAUTION: When using cleaning solvents work in a well-ventilated area.

Many cleaning solvents are toxic if inhaled.

GAS

should also be a level surface. If the unit wobbles or rocks once in place, be sure to eliminate by using shims.

 WORKING CLEARANCES: Take into consideration the size of the material to be processed.

Make sure that you allow enough space for you to operate the machine freely.

 OUTLET PLACEMENT: Outlets should be located

close enough to the machine so that the power cord or extension cord is not in an area where it would cause a tripping hazard. Be sure to observe all electrical codes if installing new circuits and/or outlets.

 If necessary, the machine can be bolted down to the

floor with the transport brackets.

 Remove the oxidation protective layer from all blank

machine parts.

1) Transport brackets

Cleaning

Your machine may be shipped with a rustproof waxy oil coating and grease on the exposed unpainted metal surfaces. To remove this protective coating, use a degreaser or solvent cleaner. For a more thorough cleaning, some parts will occasionally have to be removed. DO NOT USE acetone or brake cleaner as they may damage painted surfaces.

Follow manufacturer’s label instructions when using any type of cleaning product. After cleaning,

wipe unpainted metal surfaces with a light coating of quality oil or grease for protection.

ELECTRICAL

Motor Specifications

Your tool is wired for 220 volt, 60Hz alternating current. Before connecting the tool to the power source, make sure the machine is cut off from power source.

Connections

 A separate electrical circuit should be used for your tools. If an extension cord is used, use

only 3-wire extension cords, which have grounding type plugs and receptacles, which accept

the tool’s plug. Before connecting the motor to the power line, make sure the switch is in the

“OFF” position and be sure that the electric current is of the same characteristics as

indicated on the tool.

 All line connections should make good contact. Running on low voltage will damage the

motor.

 In the event of a malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides a path of least resistance for

electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock. This tool is equipped with an electric cord

having an equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged

into a matching outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local

codes and ordinances.

 Do not modify the plug provided - if it will not fit the outlet, have the proper outlet installed by

a qualified electrician.

 Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in risk of electric

shock. The conductor with insulation having an outer surface that is green with or without

yellow stripes is the equipment-grounding conductor. If repair or replacement of the electric

cord or plug is necessary, do not connect the equipment-grounding conductor to a live

terminal.

DUST-COLLECTING

This machine is equipped with a dust collection hood with one port. The dust collector is optional and sold separately. Before the machine is used, make sure the dust collector work as designed.

The minimum required air speed at the end of flexible tube is 20 m/sec. The minimum required air volume of the machine is 750 m³/hr. (43,000~49,000 cu. ft./hr.). Use antistatic and electrically conductive hoses only.

IMPORTANT: Use care and planning when attaching and routing flexible hose for dust collection. DO NOT create a trip hazard or an interference of the work station when routing the hose(s).

Note: Table shown in planer configuration. Use dust port (A) for planer operation and dust port (B) for jointer operation.

The 4” (101.6mm) dust port is part of and on the end of the dust hood/guard. When connecting the flexible hose, planning shall allow

for:  The hose to travel with the hood when the machine

is converted between the jointing and planing operations.

 Positioning so as NOT to interfere with the operator

or the work piece.

 Prevention of the hose from creating a trip or

entanglement hazard.

 Having the hose secured to the port to prevent

accidental detachment during operation.

WARNING: Make sure the electrical disconnect is OFF before working on

the machine. Always follow proper safety precautions when working on or around any machinery.

CAUTION: Always wear proper eye protection with side shields, safety

footwear, and leather gloves to protect from, chips, dust, burrs, and slivers.

OPERATIONAL ADJUSTMENTS

Jointer Depth of Cut Adjustment

The depth of cut is adjusted with the adjustment lever (A) on the front of the infeed table. Move the lever until the desired value has been achieved on the scale (B).

Note: The maximum depth of cut is directly related to the following factors:

 Panel width Panel intensity  Type of wood (hardwood or softwood  Wood moisture  Feed rate

Determining Correct Table Height

When you receive the jointer, the knives have been pre-set at the factory. However, the height and parallelism of the knives with the outfeed table should be checked, and any needed adjustments made, before putting the jointer into operation.

The outfeed table and cutterhead is correctly adjusted when the blades are parallel to the outfeed table. This adjustment does not normally change over time, however it should be checked whenever changing cutter blades or if the cutter head has been removed for service for any reason.

Outfeed Table Too High – If the outfeed table is too high, a curved finished surface results.

Outfeed Table Too Low – If the outfeed table is too low, the work will have a gouge, or snipe, at the end of the cut.

Outfeed Table At Correct Setting – This image illustrates the correct setting of outfeed table level with the knives. The workpiece will rest firmly on both tables with no open space under the finished cut.

WARNING: Knife inserts are dangerously sharp. Use extreme caution

when working with or around the knife inserts.

Jointer Outfeed Table Adjustment

Disconnect and lockout power to the machine! 1. Place a straightedge upon the outfeed table near

the hinged side of the table and extend it over the cutterhead.

Rotate the cutterhead, until the knife in contact with 3.

the straight edge is at its highest point. The apex of the knife should just barely come in contact with the straightedge.

 If the apex of the knife just makes contact with

the straightedge, no adjustment is required for the outfeed table.

 If the apex of the knife comes below the

straightedge (a gap exists) or pushes the straightedge up, proceed with adjustment.

Loosen the lock screw (A) at the end of the 4.

adjustment knob (B).

Raise or lower the outfeed table until the straight 5.

edge just contacts the knife tip. Slightly rotate the cutterhead to make sure the apex of the knife is just barely contacting the straight edge.

When the table is at the correct height, hold the 6.

adjustment knob (B) in position and tighten the lock screw (A).

Move the straight edge to the opposite side of the

outfeed table and check the height at this location. The height should be the same. If the height is different, then adjustment is needed on the table stop bolt (C).

Raise or lower and recheck the table to blade 8.

alignment until the entire table is exactly the same all across the cutter head and table. Then tighten the stop bolt jam nut to secure the bolt in position.

Jointer Fence Adjustment

The jointer fence can adjust in three directions.  The fence can be positioned laterally along the length of the table. Typical applications will

have the fence positioned evenly over the infeed and outfeed tables.

 The fence can be positioned over the width of the table. This allows for wider material up to

the full width of the cutter head. This also allows for narrower material to be cut at different positions on the cutter head for even knife wear.

 The fence can be tilted to create bevel and chamfer cuts.

For ALL fence adjustment, disconnect and lockout power to the machine.

Lateral Adjustment

Loosen the two hand knobs (A) and slide the fence 1.

left or right along the length of the table to the desired position.

Tighten the hand knobs. 2.

Note: Loosen the lock levers (B and C) just enough to allow the fence to tilt and pivot. If the fence is too loose it will move and flex which will result in a false reading.

Slightly loosen the lock levers (B and C).

Set the fence to the 90° position and place a square on the table and against the fence. 2.

 If the fence is square, check if the fence is contacting the stop bolt (D).  If the fence is not square, adjust the stop bolt (D) to allow the fence to move to a square

position. Set the fence to the 45° position and repeat the steps adjusting the stop bolt (E). 3. Adjust the scale indicator (F) as needed to indicate the 90° and 45° positions as nearly as 4.

Width Adjustment

Loosen the clamping levers (G). 1. Slide the across the table to the desired position. 2. Tighten the lock lever. 3.

Planer Table Height Adjustment

The cutting depth is adjusted by means of the planer table. The depth is a measurement of the intended thickness of the material after it has been processed through the planer.

IMPORTANT: The maximum depth of cut on a single pass is 1/8” (3.1mm). Setting

the table to take a larger cut will damage the machine and the work piece.

Measure the thickness of the workpiece. 1. Calculate the depth of cut needed to achieve 2.

the desired finished dimension. (Current material thickness minus the finished thickness. DO NOT exceed 1/8” (3.1mm) on a single pass.)

WARNING:

 Read, Understand and Follow all safety instructions listed in this manual.  Always wear proper safety equipment such as safety glasses and face shield.  Keep hands, fingers and all body parts away from the cutting blades and all

rotating parts.

 Use push blocks to feed material across the cutting blades Never allow your

hands closer than 3” (76.2mm) to the cutting blades.

 Never operate the jointer without the cutter head guard in place and functioning

perfectly.

FAILURE TO FOLLOW ALL SAFETY INSTRUCTION MAY CAUSESEVERE INJURY.

JOINTER OPERATION

Before making any cuts on the stock, make a few practice cuts by raising the infeed table to “0" and with the power disconnected. This will help you become acquainted with the feel of jointer operations.

Important: If you are inexperienced at jointing, use scrap pieces of lumber to

check settings and get the feel of operations before attempting regular work.

Check the following before operating the jointer:

 Outfeed table must be set level with the high point of the knives.  Stabilize long workpieces by using an assistant, or roller stands set level with the outfeed or

infeed table surface.

 The fence should be adjusted to create minimum exposure to the cutterhead during the

jointing operation, and locked at desired angle.

 The cutterhead bridge guard/guide must be in place and operating properly.  Infeed table set for desired depth of cut.  Stand away from the cutterhead and turn the machine on for a few moments. Listen for any

odd noises, rubbings, vibrations, etc. Correct such problems before attempting operations on

the jointer.

 Carefully check your workpiece for knots, holes, staples or any foreign material that might

damage knives or pose a risk of kickback. Also check the workpiece for grain orientation.

Hand Safety and Placement

Never pass the hands directly over the cutter knife. As one hand approaches the knives remove it from the stock in an arc motion and place it back on the stock in a position beyond the cutter knife.

When feeding the work piece, pressure is applied not only toward the cutterhead but against the fence and down to the table as well. At the start of the cut, the left hand holds the material down and toward the fence while the right hand pushes toward the cutterhead. As the material crosses the cutterhead the left hand comes up and over the bridge guard/guide to continue the pressure, but now on the outfeed table. As the right hand approaches the cutterhead it is time to move it up and over the bridge guard/guide in the same fashion as the left hand, all the while continuing pressure as stated above.

Jointing

In order to craft a good woodworking project, it is necessary to have a square piece of wood to start with. The way to do this is with a jointer. You need one straight edge and one flat face. After you have these, you can plane to thickness and rip to width and the resulting piece will be square and true on all four sides. At this point you can begin building your project.

Direction of the Grain

To avoid tear out, always feed the material in the direction of the grain. If the direction of the grain changes half way through the board, try taking lighter cuts at a slower feed rate. If the results are still unsatisfactory, try turning the material around and feeding the other way.

PLANER OPERATION

Unless your workpiece is very flat, surface plane the workpiece on a jointer until it is flat. 1.

Having the face flat will ensure that it sits flat on the planer table during operation.

Adjust the table elevation to slightly thinner cut than your workpiece height (approximately 2.

1/32” – 1/16” [0.8-1.6mm]). Cuts at this depth will usually take off the high spots. Start the machine. 3. Place the flat side of the workpiece down on the table, and feed the workpiece through the 4.

planer, making sure not to stand directly in front or behind the workpiece to avoid kick-back

injury. If the cut is too heavy and bogs down the planer: 5. Turn the planer OFF immediately by pressing the red EMERGENCY STOP button on the 6.

control panel. Allow the planer to come to a complete stop.

7. Lower the table and remove the workpiece and start again. 8. Measure your workpiece thickness and adjust the table elevation as necessary to take a 9.

lighter or heavier pass, depending on your needs. For most wood types, 1/8” (3.1mm) per pass is a good cutting depth.

Operation Tips

 Inspect lumber for defects, warping, cupping, twisting, and for foreign objects (nails, staples,

imbedded gravel, etc.,). If you have any question about the quality of your lumber, do not use it. Remember, wood stacked on a concrete floor can have small pieces of stone or concrete pressed into the surface.

 Use the full width of the planer. When feeding lumber into the planer, alternate between the

left, the right, and the middle. Your cutters will remain sharp much longer.

 Scrape all glue from workpiece before planing.  Plane ONLY natural wood fiber. DO NOT plane MDF, plywood, laminates, or other synthetic

products.

 Plane WITH the grain. Never feed end-cut or end-grained lumber into your planer.  Do not plane boards with loose or large knots, splits, cross grain or other obvious blemishes

or defects. These can damage the machine and pose a safety risk to the operator.

 Keep your work area clear.  When planing long stock, get assistance to receive the workpiece from the outfeed table.  Avoid planing wood with a high water content. Wood with more than 20% moisture content

or wood exposed to excessive moisture (such as rain or snow), will plane poorly and cause excessive wear to the cutters and motor. Excess moisture can also hasten rust and corrosion of the planer and/or individual components.

Thickness Planing

Disconnect and lockout power to the machine! 1. Verify the machine has been completely changed to 2.

Machining the workpiece: 8.

 Push the workpiece into the machine until it is

pulled in by the feed rollers.

 When the workpiece exits on the other side,

support it so it does not tip down.

If you are not going to continue working, switch off 9.

the machine and secure it against being turned on again accidentally.

Unlatch the feed roller engagement lever and move 10.

it to the lower position to disengage the feed rollers.

Note: A maximum of 2 workpieces may be worked simultaneously. The thickness of the workpieces may not differ by more than 1mm. The workpieces must each be inserted at the end of the feed roller.

PUSH BLOCKS

Push blocks are simple, yet necessary tools to assist the operator especially when jointing thin or short stock. Illustrated are three types of push blocks commonly used in jointing. Push blocks may be obtained commercially or easily constructed.

Note: The Jointer is supplied with two hold-

downs for feeding stock.

Push blocks are intended to keep hands and fingers away from cutting blade(s) while providing the ability to feed material through the cutting blade(s). These two items are of equal and important consideration when building or buying push blocks.

Push Blocks should:  Maintain the 3” (76.2mm) rule by keeping hands at least 3”

(76.2mm) from the cutting Blade(s).

 Provide stops for fingers should they slip during use.  Feel comfortable in your hand(s).  Have a notch or dowels to assist in holding the material to

prevent kick-back.

 Provide enough surface area to hold the material against

the cutting blade(s).

 Be made of quality material that will not crack or splinter

when it contacts the cutting blade(s).

 Be made of material that will not mar or scratch work

material.

 Make the overall use of your machine safer.

Because applications vary and push blocks are intended to come in contact with the cutting blade on occasion, have several push blocks available for your application(s).

WARNING: Make sure the electrical disconnect is OFF before working on

the machine. Maintenance should be performed on a regular basis by qualified personnel. Always follow proper safety precautions when working on or around any machinery.

MAINTENANCE

Maintenance on your machine should be done at periodic intervals to ensure that the machine is in good working order. Inspection and maintenance should be performed at least twice a year but more often if the lathe receives constant use.

 Check daily for any unsafe conditions and fix immediately.  Check that all nuts and bolts are properly tightened.  On a weekly basis clean the machine and the area around it.  Lubricate threaded components and sliding devices.  Apply rust inhibitive lubricant to all non-painted surfaces.  Clean and oil the tables so that the material will slide easily. Clean any rust spots that may

develop on the bed with a commercial rust remover.

 Use compressed air to blow out the interior of the machine in order to keep chips and

sawdust from accumulating on the belts and pulleys.

 Check the drive belt for tightness. It should be snug but not overly tight.  Use a mill file to remove any nicks or dings from the infeed or outfeed tables.

Note: Proper maintenance can increase the life expectancy of your machine.

Tighten/Replacing the Drive Belt

Over time, the drive belt will stretch and may start to slip. At this point, the drive belt must be tensioned or replaced. The drive belt should be inspected monthly; if tears are discovered, the drive belt must be replaced.

Disconnect and lockout power to the machine! 1. Remove the access cover on the back of the 2.

machine.

Loosen the 4 motor mounting bolts (A) enough so 3.

that the mounting plate will slide up and down as needed.

If replacing the belts: 4.

 Loosen the hand knob (B) enough so that the

motor plate may be lifted the full travel in the mounting slots.

 Work the belts, one at a time, off of the motor

pulley and remove the belt from the upper pulley.

 Install the new belts as a set onto the upper

pulley and then onto the motor pulley.

To tighten the belts: 5.

 Allow the weight of the motor to hang down on

the belts and turn the hand knob until any free travel in the adjustment threads is just removed.
