Operating a Jointer/Planer can be dangerous if safety and common sense are ignored. The operator must be familiar with the operation of the

tool. Read this manual to understand this Jointeri Planer. DO NOT operate this Jointer/Planer if you do not fully understand the limitations of this tool.

DO NOT modify this Jointer/Planer in any way.

BEFORE USING THE JOINTER/PLANER

_!Vivlzl t,_l_II _[e'll To avoid serious injury and damage to the tool, read and

follow all of the Safety and Operating Instructions before operating the Jointer/Planer.

1. READ the entire Owner's Manual. LEARN how to use the tool for its intended applications.

GROUND ALL TOOLS. If the tool is supplied with a 3-prong plug, it must be plugged into a 3-contact electrical receptacle. The 3rd prong is used to ground the tool and provide protection against

accidental electric shock. DO NOT remove the 3rd prong. See Grounding Instructions on page 4.

3. AVOID A DANGEROUS WORKING ENVIRONMENT. DO NOT Use electrical tools in a

damp environment or expose them to rain.

4. DO NOT use electrical tools in the presence of flammable liquids or gasses.

ALWAYS keep the work area clean, well lit, and organized. DO NOT work in an environment with floor surfaces that are slippery from debris, grease

or wax.

KEEP VISITORS AND CHILDREN AWAY. DO NOT permit people to be in the immediate work area,

especially when the electrical tool is operating.

DO NOT FORCE THE TOOL to perform an operation for which it was not designed. It will do a safer and higher quality job by only performing operations for which the tool was intended.

WEAR PROPER CLOTHING. DO NOT wear loose clothing, gloves, neckties, or jewelry. These items

can get caught in the machine during operations and pull the operator into the moving parts. The user must wear a protective cover on their hair, if the hair is long, to prevent it from contacting any moving parts.

ALWAYS WEAR EYE PROTECTION. Any power tool can throw debris into the eyes during operations, which could cause severe and permanent eye damage. ALWAYS Wear Safety Goggles (that comply with ANSI standard Z87.1) when operating power tools. Safety Goggles are

available at Sears Retail Stores.

10.

WEAR A DUST MASK TO PREVENT INHALING DANGEROUS DUST OR PARTICLES.

11.

ALWAYS UNPLUG THE TOOL FROM THE ELEC- TRICAL RECEPTACLE when making adjustments,

changing parts or performing any maintenance.

12.

KEEP PROTECTIVE GUARDS IN PLACE AND IN

WORKING ORDER.

13.

AVOID ACCIDENTAL STARTING. Make sure that the power switch is in the "OFF" position before

plugging in the power cord to the electrical receptacle.

14.

REMOVE ALL MAINTENANCE TOOLS from the immediate area prior toturning "ON" the Jointer/Planer.

15.

USE ONLY RECOMMENDED ACCESSORIES. Use of incorrect or improper accessories could cause

serious injury to the operator and cause damage to the tool. If in doubt, check the instruction manual that comes with that particular accessory.

16.

NEVER LEAVE A RUNNING TOOL UNATTENDED. Turn the power switch to the "OFF"

position. DO NOT leave the tool until it has come to a complete stop.

17.

DO NOT STAND ON A TOOL. Serious injury could result if the tool tips over or you accidentally contact

the tool.

18.

DO NOT store anything above or near the tool where someone might try to stand on the tool to

reach it.

19.

MAINTAIN YOUR BALANCE. DO NOT extend yourself over the tool. Wear oil resistant, rubber-soled shoes. Keep floor clear of debris, grease, and wax.

20.

MAINTAIN TOOLS WITH CARE. Always keep tools clean and in good working order. Keep all blades and tool bits sharp.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.

21.EACHAND EVERY TIME, CHECK FOR

DAMAGED PARTS PRIOR TO USING THE TOOL.

Carefully check all guards to see that they operate properly, are not damaged, and perform their intended functions. Check for alignment, binding or breaking of moving parts. A guard or other part that is damaged should be immediately repaired or replaced.

22. CHILDPROOF THE WORKSHOP AREA by removing switch keys, unplugging tools from the electrical receptacles, and using padlocks.

23. DO NOT OPERATE TOOL IF UNDER THE INFLU-

ENCE OF DRUGS OR ALCOHOL.

24. SECURE ALL WORK. When it is possible, use clamps or jigs to secure the workpiece. This is safer than attempting to hold the workpiece with your

hands.

25. USE A PROPER EXTENSION CORD IN GOOD CONDITION. When using an extension cord, be sure

to use one heavy enough to carry the current your product will draw. The table below shows the correct size to use depending on cord length and nameplate amperage rating. If in doubt, use the next heavier gauge. The smaller the gauge number, the larger

diameter of the extension cord. If in doubt of the proper size of an extension cord, use a shorter and

thicker cord. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in a loss of power and overheating. USE ONLY A 3-WIRE EXTENSION

CORD THAT HAS A 3-PRONG GROUNDING PLUG AND A 3-POLE RECEPTACLE THAT ACCEPTS THE TOOL'S PLUG.

GUIDELINES FOR EXTENSION CORDS

If you are using an extension cord outdoors, be sure

it is marked with the suffix "W-A" ("W" in Canada) to indicate that it is acceptable for outdoor use.

Be sure your extension cord is properly sized, and in good electrical condition. Always replace a damaged extension cord or have it repaired by a qualified person before using it.

Protect your extension cords from sharp objects, excessive heat, and damp or wet areas.

IN THE EVENT OF A MALFUNCTION OR BREAKDOWN, grounding provides the path of least

resistance for electric current and reduces the risk of electric shock. This tool is equipped with an electric cord

that has an equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The plug MUST be plugged into a matching electrical receptacle 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 electrical receptacle, have the proper electrical

receptacle installed by a qualified electrician. IMPROPER ELECTRICAL CONNECTION of the

equipment-grounding conductor can result in risk of electric shock. The conductor with the green insulation (with or without yellow stripes) is the equipment- grounding conductor. DO NOT connect the equipment- grounding conductor to a live terminal if repair or replacement of the electric cord or plug is necessary.

CHECK with a qualified electrician or service personnel if you do not completely understand the grounding instructions, or if you are not sure the tool is properly grounded.

USE ONLY A 3-WIRE EXTENSION CORD THAT HAS A 3-PRONG GROUNDING PLUG AND A 3-POLE RECEPTACLE THAT ACCEPTS THE TOOL'S PLUG.

REPLACE A DAMAGED OR WORN CORD IMMEDIATELY.

4. The START/STOP switch supplied with this Jointer/ Planer is a double pole switch. No changes are required to the switch for 115/230-Volt operation.

The Jointer/Planer is used to surface the faces and edges of boards, produce a flat surface on warped

boards and shape rabbets, bevels, chamfers and tapers. This Jointer/Planer features an enclosed stand and

integral dust collection. It also features a heavy cast iron fence, infeed and outfeed tables to support long stock. The fence tilts 45 degree in and out and has positive

stops at 90 degree and 45 degree in and out. The push button industrial-style on/off switch has provisions for a padlock lockout. One set of push blocks helps handle stock. The Jointer/Planer easily handles rough-cut lumber, and planes hard and soft woods up to 6 1/8" wide using a three knife cutterhead.

DEFINITIONS OF JOINTING AND PLANING OPERATIONS

Jointing Operations - Jointing is a surfacing operation in which a small amount of wood is removed from the

edges and faces of boards. These cuts are made to straighten and to square an edge of a workpiece. A properly jointed board would have smooth, straight and even surfaces so that the joint surfaces would fit together perfectly, forming a seamless joint.

Planing Operations - Planing refers to the sizing of lumber to a desired thickness while creating a level

surface.

Rabbeting Operations - A rabbet is a notch cut into the edge of a workpiece.

STARTING AND STOPPING JOINTER/PLANER

1. The on/off switch is located in the front of the enclosed stand.

2. To turn the Jointer/Planer "ON", press the green start button.

3. To turn the Jointer/Planer "OFF", press the red stop button.

LOCKING SWITCH IN THE "OFF" POSITION

When the Jointer/Planer is not in use, the start button can be locked so that it cannot be started. Using a padlock (included) through the two holes in the switch

and button.

INFEED TABLE OPERATION

1. To raise or lower the infeed table, loosen the infeed table lock handle (A). To loosen handle, turn counterclockwise; to tighten, turn handle clockwise. See Figure 20.

3. To adjust the outfeed table (F), loosen lock-thumb screw (G) on the backside of the outfeed table. See Figure 22.

Grip the infeed table raise/lowering handle and raise or lower handle. NOTE: For rabbet-cutting operations, the maximum depth-of-cut pin (B) must be disengaged at 1/8" depth-of-cut. This will allow

the infeed table to lower down to a maximum of

1/2" depth of cut.

CAUTION: 1/2" DEPTH-OF-CUT IS ONLY USED IN RABBET-CUTTING OPERATIONS.

To disengage depth limiting pin (B), pull the ball knob toward you. Now lower the raise/lower handle

and release the ball knob.

After the depth-of-cut is set, tighten the infeed table lock handle (A). See Figure 20.

The pointer (C) on the depth-of-cut scale (D) indicates the infeed table depth-of-cut. See Figure 20.

OUTFEED TABLE OPERATION

1. WARNING: DISCONNECT JOINTER/PLANER

FROM POWER SOURCE.

CAUTION: The knife edges are sharp. Do not touch.

In order to perform accurate jointing/planing operations, the outfeed table (A) must be exactly level with the highpoint (B) of the knives (C). See Figure 21.

Figure 22

Turn the hand knob (H) that is under the outfeed table clockwise to raise table or counter-clockwise to

lower table. See Figure 22.

To check level of table to knives, set a straight edge (E) on the outfeed table, extending over center of the cutterhead (D). See Figure 21. To check that the knives are installed correctly, see "Knife Adjustments".

When the outfeed table is exactly level with the highpoint of the knives, tighten lock-thumb screw. See Figures 21 and 22.
