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 perfor m
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. WORK PIECE KICKBACK
Kickback is when the work piece 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 kickback, keep the top edge of the out-feed 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 in-feed 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 work piece over the cutter
head from the in-feed table towards the outfeed table until the work piece has passed
completely over the cutter head. Never back
the work piece towards the in-feed table.
10.
USING GOOD WORK PIECE STOCK
Jointing safety begins with the stock used with
the machine. Inspect the work piece 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.

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 T O 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.
CIRCUIT CAPACIT
Y
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.
EXTENSION CORDS
The use of an extension cord is not generally recommended for 220V equipment. If you find it necessary,
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.
If you find it necessary to use an extension cord with
your machine 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.
ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS

A
B
C
ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
Both a manual circuit breaker (or similar device) as well
as an electrical plug (similar to the one shown) are recommended and should be installed b
y a qualified
electr
ician
. Use locally approved wire that includes a
separate grounding wire , and a 3 prong grounding
type plug with a matching receptacle .
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
In the event of an electrical malfunction or short circuit,
grounding reduces the risk of electric shock to the operator. The motor of this machine is wired for 220V single
phase operationwired for 220V single phase operation.
As with many stationary industrial type machines,
because each installation situation is unique, this jointer
is supplied without a power cord or plug.The installation
of an appropriate power cord and plug must be performed by a qualified electrician.The machine must be
connected to an electrical source using a power cord
that has a grounding wire, which must also be properly
connected to the grounding prong on the plug.The outlet must be properly installed and grounded and all
electrical connections must be made in accordance
with all local codes and regulations.

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 solventsoaked 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.
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.
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.
THIS MODEL 80-225HC JOINTER IS VERY HEAVY – 592 LBS (269 KG). DO NOT OVER-EXERT. THE HELP OF OF AT LEAST THREE ASSISTANTS, A HOIST OR FORKLIFT WILL BE NEEDED FOR THE FOLLOWING STEP.
TO LIMIT THE RISK OF SERIOUS INJURY OR DAMAGE TO THE MACHINE, ANY EQUIPMENT USED TO LIFT THIS MACHINE (HOIST OR
FORKLIFT) SHOULD HAVE A RATED CAPACITY IN EXCESS OF 592 LBS - 269 KG.

CHECKING /
ADJUSTING THE ZERO POINT STOP BOLT &
THE DEPTH OF CUT INDICATOR
The “Zero point stop bolt” C
has been factory set to
prevent the
in-feed table from being raised above the maximum height
of the cutter head.
The “Depth of cut indicator” D
has been factory set to
read “0”
when the in-feed table is at the exact same height as the
highest point of the cutter head.
However with use and vibration over time, it may eventually
become necessary to re-adjust the “Zero point stop bolt”and
“Depth of cut indicator”. Refer to the instructions in section
“Maintenance”, on page 21 of this manual.

NOTE
1/2” DEPTH STOP BOL
T
As a time saving convenience, the 1/2” depth stop bolt
A located under the in-feed table limits the downward
travel of the in-feed table for faster in-feed table height
adjustments.
Note: Check and, if needed, readjust the 1/2” depth stop
bolt after making any table alignment adjustments.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
BASIC PRINCIPLES OF JOINTING
This jointer is designed to remove material from the bottom face of a board in order to bring one face of the board
(or a series of boards) perfectly flat A.
This perfectly flat face is then placed against the fence, set at 90º to the tables, to obtain a perfectly perpendicular
90º flat edge B.
This jointer is not intended (and should not be used) to joint any material other than solid wood.
B
A
SELECTING BOARDS SUIT
ABLE FOR JOINTING
1. Jointing safety begins with the stock used with the
machine. Inspect the work piece 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.
2. Only boards with the grain running more or less lengthwise are suitable for jointing C.
C
ALWAYS JOINT IN THE GENERAL DIRECTION OF THE GRAIN.JOINTING AGAINST THE GRAIN OR JOINTING END GRAIN
IS DANGEROUS AND MAY CAUSE THE WORKPIECE TO SHATTER.
A
B
15
D
DE
TERMINE THE CONCAVE FACE AND EDGE OF YOUR BOARD
Place your board on a flat surface to identify its concave face D and edge E. The boards must be jointed with its
concave face and edge against the jointer table.
ADJUST FENCE FRONT TO BACK POSITION
To limit your exposure to the knives in the cutter head, never take more knive length than is required to complete
the cut. Set the position of the fence so that the length of blade remaining exposed is roughly 1/4” longer than the
width of the board to be jointed.

CHECKLIST BEFORE STARTING
• Make sure you and any assistants are wearing safe appropriate workshop attire. Roll up long sleeves, secure
long hair and remove any jewelry: watches, rings, bracelets or anything that could become caught in the moving parts, potentially causing serious injury.
• Make sure the board has been inspected and is suitable for jointing as explained in the previous section
“Selecting boards suitable for jointing”.
• Verify that the cutter head guard is functioning properly (snaps back against the fence and covers the knives).
• Make sure that the fence is properly set and locked in place.
• Make sure to have on safety glasses as well as hearing and respiratory protection at all times when using the
jointer.
VERIFY ALL CHECK POINTS BEFORE STARTING. FAILURE TO COMPLY CAN RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURIES.
CONNECTING TO A POWER SOURCE
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF SHOCK OR FIRE DO NOT OPERATE THE UNIT WITH A DAMAGED POWER CORD OR PLUG.
REPLACE DAMAGED CORD OR PLUG IMMEDIATELY.
TO AVOID UNEXPECTED OR UNINTENTIONAL START-UP,
MAKE SURE THAT THE POWER SWITCH ISIN THE OFF POSITION BEFORE CONNECTING TO A POWER SOURCE.
Once the assembly and adjustment steps have been
completed, uncoil the power cord and plug it into an
appropriate outlet. The Power-on indicator light A will
illuminate.
When jointing operations have been completed unplug
the jointer from the power source.

BASIC JOINTING OPERATIONS
SURFACE PLANING
1. Inspect the stock before starting & remove any foreign
objects or debris.
2. Set the depth of cut as required (1/32" is recommend-
ed for face planing - Less for hard wood or wider
stock.)
3. Set & lock the fence at 90°.
4. If your workpiece is cupped, place the cupped side
face down on the in-feed (right) table.
5. Set the position of the fence so that the length of
blade remaining exposed is roughly 1/4” longer than
the width of the board to be jointed.
6. Turn on the machine & using push blocks press the
stock against the table and tight to the fence, feeding
the stock over the cutter head.
7. Inspect the board & repeat the steps if needed until
the surface is flat.
FAILURE TO USE PUSH BLOCKS WHEN SURFACE PLANING MAY RESULT IN SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY.
ALWAYS USE PUSH BLOCKS TO HELP KEEP YOUR
HANDS AT A SAFE DISTANCE FROM THE KNIVES WHEN
SURFACE PLANING.
16
Refer back to the section entitled “Electrical
Requirements” and make sure all requirements
and grounding instructions are followed.
EDGE JOINTING
1. Inspect the stock before starting & remove any foreign
objects or debris.
2. Set the depth of cut as required (1/16" - 1/8” is recom-
mended for edge jointing - Less for hard wood or
wider stock.)
3. Set & lock the fence at 90°
4. If your workpiece is cupped, place the cupped side
face down on the in-feed (right) table.
5. Set the position of the fence so that the length of blade
remaining exposed is roughly 1/4” longer than the
width of the board to be jointed.
6. Turn on the machine, press the stock against the table
and tight to the fence, feeding the stock over the cutter head.
7. Inspect the board & repeat the steps if needed until
the surface is flat.
RABBETING
1. Remove the blade guard & move the fence forward leaving only the width of the desired rabbet on the tables
uncovered by the fence & lock the fence in position.
REMOVE THE BLADE GUARD FOR RABBETING ONLY. IMMEDIATELY REPLA CE THE BLADE GUARD WHEN FINISHED. DO
NOT PERFORM ANY OTHER JOINTING OPERATION WITH THE BLADE GUARD REMOVED. FAILURE TO HEED THIS
WARNING CAN LEAD TO SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY.
2. Inspect the stock before starting & remove any foreign objects or debris.
3. Set the depth of cut as required (1/16" - 1/8” is recommended for rabbeting - Less for hard wood or wider
stock.)
4. Turn on the machine & using push blocks press the stock against the tables rabbeting arm and tight to the
fence, feeding the stock over the cutter head.
5. Repeat the steps until the rabbet is cut to desired depth.
MAINTENANCE
MAKE SURE THE JOINTER HAS BEEN TURNED OFF AND UNPLUGGED FROM THE POWER SOURCE BEFORE PERFORMING ANY MAINTENANCE. FAILURE TO HEED THIS WARNING CAN LEAD TO SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY.
There are 22 reversible carbide inserts (knives) installed in
the helical cutter head at the factory.With usage and normal wear over time, it will eventually become necessary
to reverse and/or replace the inserts. To maintain even
insert wear always reverse or replace all 22 inserts each
time knife replacement is required.
When needed, replacement inserts A can be ordered
through your local General International distributor under
part #30-443.
INSPECTING/REPL
ACING CUTTER HEAD KNIVES
A
17
Observing jointed workpieces as they come off of the machine and looking for signs of knife damage or wear is
the best method to help you to determine when knives are due to be changed.
Signs to look f
or include:
EFFECT EXAGGERATED FOR CLARITY
B
C
D
1. A raised ridgeline in the workpiece that runs a straight line from beginning to end of the board B. This is ge-
nerally an indication that one or more knives has been nicked or damaged C by a foreign object such
as a nail, staple or other hard object hidden or embedded in the workpiece.
2. A slight washboard or chatter effect D which can be an indication of uneven knife wear causing one knife to
cut slightly deeper than the others.
3. Rough, irregular, torn or fuzzy grain on a freshly jointed surface may be a sign of worn or dull blades
causing the wood to tear out. Sharp blades cut crisply and leave a relatively smooth finish.
Note: Fuzzy grain can also be a sign of high moisture content in the workpiece. If knives have recently been changed or if
you suspect that moisture content and not dull knives is the cause, set the workpiece aside and test by jointing other
boards with known or acceptable moisture content. If the jointed results using a different workpiece are smooth, then moisture content in your wood is the problem - no adjustments can be made to the machine for this. Set the “wet” stock aside
and simply work with drier wood.
HELICAL CUTTER HEAD INSERT REVERSAL / REPLACEMENT
1. Using the one of the supplied long Allen keys, loosen but do not remove the nut and screw A and remove the knife-holder/chip breaker B and insert C.
INSERT EDGES ARE VERY SHARP. USE CARE WHEN HANDLING INSERTS.
MAKE SURE THE JOINTER HAS BEEN TURNED OFF AND UNPLUGGED FROM THE POWER SOURCE BEFORE PERFORM-
ING ANY MAINTENANCE. FAILURE TO HEED THIS WARNING CAN LEAD TO SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY.
B
D
C
5. Center the knife-holder/chip breaker with the flat
edge of the nut H and fully tighten the nut and
screw.
6. Repeat with all other inserts.
A
2. Thoroughly clean the housing D before reinstal-
ling a knife-holder/chip breaker and insert.
Important! To prevent knife height
discrepencies, the knife holders /
chip breakers and inserts must be
clean and free of debris.
E
F
G
H
3. Thoroughly clean the knife-holders/chip breakers E
and inserts F using a lacquer thinner and small brush.
4. Reverse or replace the insert and re-install it along
with the knife-holder/chip breaker into the slot, then
partially retighten the nut and screw G.
18
Important! The nut and screw that secures the knife-holder/chip breakers and inserts in the cutter head does not have
to be removed for blade reversal/replacement, only loosened. If the nuts and screws have to be replaced or if they
have been removed instead of loosened, follow the instructions below to make sure that the knife-holder/chip breakers are all secured at the same height into the cutter head.
1. Place the screw in the threaded hole but don’t start
tightening it yet.
2. Place the nut on top of the screw but don’t start tight-
ening the screw yet.
3. Holding the nut with your fingers, tighten the screw. This
will tighten both the screw and nut simultaneously.
Do not thread the nut onto the screw before tightening
the screw into the threaded hole in the cutter head.
PARALLEL (CO-PLANAR) ALIGNMENT OF THE IN-FEED AND OUT-FEED TABLES
In order to obtain precision jointing results it is essential that the in-feed and out-feed tables are aligned parallel (coplanar) to each other at all times. If the end of one or both tables is tilted higher or sags lower A, or if either table
tilts inward or outward out of parallel with the other B,this will result in jointed workpieces that are not flat or that cannot be face and then edge jointed to achieve a perfect 90° angle.
To facilitate precision table alignment this 80-225HC jointer features a parallelogram style 4-point adjustment system
on each table. In order to achieve perfect alignment, the tables should be verified at the front (closest to the operator), back (closest to the fence) and across both diagonals (corner to corner) using a precision straightedge,
preferably one that is as long as the two tables.

PERIODIC MAINTENANCE
To prolong the service life of your jointer and to maintain optimum performance the following basic maintenance
procedures should be practiced and become part of your shop routine.
• Inspect/tes
t the ON/OFF switch before each use. Do not operate the jointer with a damaged switch; replace a
damaged switch immediately.
•K
eep the machine as well as the in-feed out-feed tables clean and free of saw dust, woodchips, pitch or glue.
Vacuum or brush off any loose debris and wipe down the machine and the tables occasionally with a damp rag.
• An occasional light coa
ting of paste wax can help protect the tables’ surface and reduce workpiece friction.
Ask your local distributor for suggestions on aftermarket surface cleaners, protectant and dry lubricants based
on what is readily available in your area.
•A
void using silicon based pr
oducts that may affect or react with wood finishing products such as oil, solvent or
water-based stains, varnishes and lacquers.
•P
eriodically inspect the po
wer cord and plug for damage. To minimize the risk of electric shock or fire, never
operate the planer with a damaged power cord or plug. Replace a damaged power cord or plug at the first
visible signs of damage.
• All bear
ings are sealed and permanently lubricated and no further lubrication is required. The fence assembly
and table ways also should not be lubricated. If you should encounter a “sticking” problem, simply disassemble and clear away any obstructions from the ways.
• Regular
ly inspect jointed workpieces for signs of knife damage or wear and replace damaged or worn knives
immediately.
• Inspect the belt r
egularly – To avoid potentially costly downtime,consider keeping a spare replacement belt on
hand for use if needed. Belts that show visible signs of wear such as cracks or fraying at the edges should
be replaced immediately.
