1. Do not operate this jointer when tired, distracted, or
under the effects of drugs, alcohol or any medication
that impairs reflexes or alertness.
2. The work area should be well lit, clean and free of
debris.
3. Keep children and visitors at a safe distance when the
jointer is in operation; do not permit them to operate
the jointer.
4. Childproof and tamper proof your shop and all
machinery with locks, master electrical switches and
switch keys, to prevent unauthorized or unsupervised
use.
5. Stay alert! Give your work your undivided attention.
Even a momentary distraction can lead to serious
injury.
6. Fine particulate dust is a carcinogen that can be haz-
ardous to health. Work in a well-ventilated area and
whenever possible use a dust collector. Wear face,
eye, ear, respiratory and body protection devices.
7. Do not wear loose clothing, gloves, bracelets, neck-
laces or other jewelry while the jointer is in operation.
Wear protective hair covering to contain long hair
and wear non-slip footwear.
8. Be sure that adjusting wrenches, tools, drinks and
other clutter are removed from the machine and/or
the table surface before operating.
9. Keep hands well away from knives and all moving
parts. Use a push stick to feed stock, and a brush, not
hands, to clear away chips and dust.
10. Be sure that the knives are securely installed in the cut-
terhead.
11. Always use clean, properly sharpened knives. Dirty or
dull knives are unsafe and can lead to accidents.
12. If using a power feeder, stop the feeder before stopping
the jointer.
13. Do not push or force stock into the cutter head. The
jointer will perform better and more safely when work-
ing at the rate for which it was designed.
14. Be sure that the cutter head has gained full operating
speed before starting to joint.
15. Avoid working from awkward or off balance positions.
Do not overreach and keep both feet on floor.
16. Keep guards in place and in working order. If a guard
must be removed for maintenance or cleaning be
sure it is properly re-attached before using the tool
again.
17. Use of parts and accessories NOT recommended by
GENERAL® INTERNATIONAL may result in equipment
malfunction or risk of injury.
18. Never stand on machinery. Serious injury could result
if the tool is tipped over or if the cutting tool is uninten-
tionally contacted.
19. Always disconnect the tool from the power source
before servicing or changing accessories such as
knives, or before performing any maintenance or
cleaning, or if the machine will be left unattended.
20. Make sure that the switch is in the “OFF” position before
plugging in the power cord.
21. Make sure the tool is properly grounded. If equipped
with a 3-prong plug it should be used with a three-pole
receptacle. Never remove the third prong.
22. Do not use this jointer for other than its intended use. If
used for other purposes, GENERAL® INTERNATIONAL
disclaims any real implied warranty and holds itself
harmless for any injury, which may result from that
use.
RULES FOR SAFE OPERATION
To help ensure safe operation, please take a moment to learn the machine’s applications and limitations, as well as poten-
tial hazards. General® International disclaims any real or implied warranty and holds itself harmless for any injury that
may result from improper use of its equipment.

Additional Safety
Instructions for Jointers
Because each shop situation is unique, no list of safety guidelines can ever be complete.
The most important safety feature of any shop is the knowledge and good judgement of the user. Use common
sense and always keep safety considerations, as they apply to your individual shop conditions, first and foremost
in mind. If you have any doubts about the safety of an operation you are about to perform: STOP! Do not perform
the operation until you have validated from qualified individuals if the operation is safe to perform and what is
the safest method to perform it.
1. WORKPIECE KICKBACK
Kickback is when the workpiece is ejected
at high speeds from the jointer table by the
force of the cutter head. To minimize the risk of
injury from kickback, always use push blocks
and wear safety glasses. Do not operate this
machine if you do not understand kickback, its
causes and how to avoid it.
2. CUTTER HEAD ALIGNMENT
To reduce the risk of injury and to avoid kick
-
back, keep the top edge of the outfeed table
aligned with the top dead center edge of the
knife.
3. PUSH BLOCKS
Always use push blocks when jointing. Never
pass your bare hands directly over the cutter
head without a push block to hold and guide
the workpiece.
4. WORKPIECE SUPPORT
To make safe cuts and reduce the risk of injury,
support the workpiece adequately at all times.
Never attempt to make a cut with an unstable
workpiece.
5. KICKBACK ZONE
The kickback zone on a jointer is the area
directly in the path through and off of the end
of the infeed table. Never stand or allow others
to stand in this area during operation.
6. MAXIMUM DEPTH OF CUT
The maximum depth of cut for one pass is 1/8”.
Never attempt to remove more material than
1/8” in any single pass.
7. JOINTING WITH THE GRAIN
Jointing against the grain or jointing end grain
is dangerous and could produce chatter or
excessive chip out. Always joint with the grain.
8. KEEPING GUARDS IN PLACE
Except when rabbeting, all operations must
be performed with the guard in place. After
rabbeting, be sure to replace the guard.
9. PROPER CUTTING
Always move the workpiece over the cutter
head from the infeed table towards the outfeed
table until the workpiece has passed complete
-
ly over the cutter head. Never back the work-
piece towards the infeed table.
10. USING GOOD WORKPIECE STOCK
Jointing safety begins with the stock used with
the machine. Inspect the workpiece carefully
before jointing it. Never joint a board that has
loose knots, staples, nails or other embedded
foreign objects. If you have the slightest doubt
about the structural integrity or stability of a
board: Do Not Joint It.

ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
In the event of an electrical malfunction or short circuit,
grounding reduces the risk of electric shock. The motor
of this machine is wired for 110V single phase operation
and is equipped with a 3-conductor cord and a
3-prong grounding plug
to fit a grounded type
receptacle
. Do not remove the 3rd prong (ground-
ing pin) to make it fit into an old 2-hole wall socket or
extension cord. If an adaptor plug is used
, it must be
attached to the metal screw of the receptacle.
Note: The use of an adaptor plug is illegal in some
areas. Check your local codes. If you have any doubts
or if the supplied plug does not correspond to your
electrical outlet, consult a qualified eletrician before
proceeding.
CIRCUIT CAPACITY
Make sure that the wires in your circuit are capable of
handling the amperage draw from your machine, as
well as any other machines that could be operating on
the same circuit. If you are unsure, consult a qualified
electrician. If the circuit breaker trips or the fuse blows
regularly, your machine may be operating on a circuit
that is close to its amperage draw capacity. However,
if an unusual amperage draw does not exist and a
power failure still occurs, contact a qualified technician
or our service department.
BEFORE CONNECTING THE MACHINE TO THE POWER SOURCE, VERIFY THAT THE VOLTAGE OF YOUR POWER SUPPLY CORRE-
SPONDS WITH THE VOLTAGE SPECIFIED ON THE MOTOR I.D. NAMEPLATE. A POWER SOURCE WITH GREATER VOLTAGE THAN NEED-
ED CAN RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY TO THE USER AS WELL AS DAMAGE TO THE MACHINE. IF IN DOUBT, CONTACT A QUALIFIED
ELECTRICIAN BEFORE CONNECTING TO THE POWER SOURCE.
THIS TOOL IS FOR INDOOR USE ONLY. DO NOT EXPOSE TO RAIN OR USE IN WET OR DAMP LOCATIONS.
CONVERTING THE MOTOR TO 220V
Should you need to convert your machine’s motor from
110V to 220V power, there is an electrical schematic
drawing on the inside of the motor cover plate. Unless
you are a qualified electrician, we do not recommend
attempting this conversion on your own. If you choose
to do so, you may risk serious personal injury, damage
to the motor and voiding the warranty of your machine.
We suggest you ask your local General International
distributor to recommend qualified electricians in your
area (or perhaps one of their own technicians) who
can make this conversion properly and safely.
EXTENSION CORDS
If you find it necessary to use an extension cord with
your machine, use only 3-wire extension cords that have
3-prong grounding plug and a matching 3-pole recep-
tacle that accepts the tool’s plug. Repair or replace a
damaged extension cord or plug immediately.
Make sure the cord rating is suitable for the amperage
listed on the motor I.D. plate. An undersized cord will
cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power
and overheating. The accompanying chart shows the
correct size extension cord to be used based on cord
length and motor I.D. plate amp rating. If in doubt, use
the next heavier gauge. The smaller the number, the
heavier the gauge.

6” DELUXE JOINTER
80-075L/LHC & 80-100L/LHC
PLACEMENT WITHIN THE SHOP
This machine should be installed and operated only on
a solid, flat and stable floor that is able to support the
weight of the jointer and the operator.
Using the dimensions shown as a guideline, plan for
placement within your shop that will allow the operator
to work unencumbered and unobstructed by foot traffic
(either passing shop visitors or other shop workers) or
other tools or machinery.
ESTABLISHING A SAFETY ZONE
For shops with frequent visitors or multiple operators, it is
advisable to establish a safety zone around shop machi-
nery. A clearly defined “no-go” zone on the floor around
each machine can help avoid accidents that could
cause injury to either the operator or the shop visitor. It is
advisable to take a few moments to either paint (using
non-slip paint) or using tape, define on the floor the limits
or perimeter of each machines safety zone. Take steps to
ensure that all operators and shop visitors are aware that
these areas are off limits whenever a machine is running
for everyone but the individual operating the unit.

2. Attach one side cross brace C to 2 stand legs as
shown in D. Repeat with the other side cross brace
and 2 other legs E.
CLEAN UP
The protective coating on the jointer tables prevents rust from forming during shipping and storage. Remove it
by rubbing with a rag dipped in kerosene, mineral spirits or paint thinner. (Dispose of potentially flammable sol-
vent-soaked rags according to manufacturer’s safety recommendations.)
A putty knife, held flat to avoid scratching the surface, may also be used to scrape off the coating followed by
clean-up with solvent. Avoid rubbing the saw’s painted surfaces, as many solvent-based products will remove paint.
To prevent rust, apply a light coating of paste wax or use regular applications of any after-market surface pro-
tectant or rust inhibitor.
