RULES FOR SAFE OPERATION

To help ensure safe operation, please take a moment to learn the machine’s applications and limitations, as well as potential 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.

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.

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.

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.

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 workpiece 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

BEFORE CONNECTING THE MACHINE TO THE POWER SOURCE, VERIFY THAT THE VOLTAGE OF YOUR POWER SUPPLY CORRESPONDS WITH THE VOLTAGE SPECIFIED ON THE MOTOR I.D. NAMEPLATE. A POWER SOURCE WITH GREATER VOLTAGE THAN NEEDED 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.

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 receptacle ing pin) to make it fit into an old 2-hole wall socket or extension cord. If an adaptor plug is used 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.

. Do not remove the 3rd prong (ground-

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.

to fit a grounded type

, it must be

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 receptacle 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.

PLACEMENT WITHIN THE SHOP / ESTABLISHING A SAFETY ZONE

THIS JOINTER IS HEAVY – 235 LBS (107 KG) FOR MODEL 80-075L AND 249 LBS (113 KG) FOR MODELS 80-100L/LHC. DO NOT OVER-EXERT. THE HELP OF AN ASSISTANT WILL BE NEEDED FOR THE FOLLOWING STEP.

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 machinery. 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.

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 solvent-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 protectant or rust inhibitor.
