SECTION 1: SAFETY
WARNING: For Your Own Safety Read Instruction Manual Before Operating Planer-Moulder
a)Always wear eye protection.
b)Be sure all guards are in place before operating equipment.
c)Read the operators manual thoroughly and familiarize yourself with the machine before attempting to operate.
d)Support the workpiece adequately at all times during operation; maintain control of the work at all times.
e)Do not attempt to perform an abnormal or little-used operation without study and the use of adequate hold-downs, jigs, fixtures, stops, and the like.
Safety Instructions For Power Tools
These safety rules cannot cover every situation in a workshop. Consider your conditions when setting up or operating your planer-moulder.
1.KEEP GUARDS IN PLACE and in working order.
2.REMOVE ADJUSTING KEYS AND WRENCHES. Form habit of checking to see that keys and adjusting wrenches are removed from tool before turning on.
3.KEEP WORK AREA CLEAN. Cluttered areas and benches invite accidents.
4.DON’T USE IN DANGEROUS ENVIRONMENT. Don’t use power tools in damp or wet locations, or expose them to rain. Keep work area well lighted.
5.KEEP CHILDREN AWAY. All visitors should be kept a safe distance from work area.
6.MAKE WORK SHOP KID PROOF with padlocks, master switches, or by removing starter keys.
7.DON’T FORCE TOOL. It will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed.
8.USE RIGHT TOOL. Don’t force tool or attachment to do a job for which it was not designed.
-2-
9.USE PROPER EXTENSION CORD. Make sure your extension cord is in good condition. When using an extension cord, be sure it is rated Hard Service (grade S) or better. Conductor size must be 14 A.W.G. for cords up to 50 feet in length. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating. Your extension cord must also contain a ground wire and plug pin. Always repair or replace extension cords if they become damaged.
10.WEAR PROPER APPAREL Do not wear loose clothing, gloves, neckties, rings, bracelets, or other jewelry which may get caught in moving parts. Nonslip footwear is recommended. Wear protective hair covering to contain long hair.
11.ALWAYS USE SAFETY GLASSES. Also use face or dust mask if cutting operation is dusty. Everyday eyeglasses only have impact resistant lenses, they are NOT safety glasses.
12.SECURE WORK. Use clamps or a vise to hold work when practical. It’s safer than using your hand and frees both hands to operate tool.
G1037 Planer / Moulder
13.DON’T OVERREACH. Keep proper footing and balance at all times.
14.MAINTAIN TOOLS WITH CARE. Keep tools sharp and clean for best and safest performance. Follow instructions for lubricating and changing accessories.
15.DISCONNECT TOOLS before servicing and changing accessories, such as blades, bits, cutters, and the like.
16.REDUCE THE RISK OF UNINTENTIONAL STARTING. Make sure switch is in off position before plugging in.
17.USE RECOMMENDED ACCESSORIES.
Consult the owner’s manual for recommended accessories. The use of improper accessories may cause risk of injury to persons.
18.CHECK DAMAGED PARTS. Before further use of the tool, a guard or other part that is damaged should be carefully checked to determine that it will operate properly and perform its intended function - check for alignment of moving parts, binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, mounting, and any other conditions that may affect its operation. A guard or other part that is damaged should be properly repaired or replaced.
19.DIRECTION OF FEED. Feed work into a blade or cutter against the direction of rotation of the blade or cutter only.
20.NEVER LEAVE TOOL RUNNING UNATTENDED. TURN POWER OFF. Don’t leave tool until it comes to a complete stop.
Additional Safety Instructions For Planer-Moulders
1.Inspect your stock carefully before you feed it through the machine. If you have any doubts about the stability or structural integrity of your stock, DO NOT USE IT!
2.NEVER mill stock that has loose knots. All defects should be cut out of the board before it is processed.
3.NEVER plane a board less than 14" in length.
4.Before starting up, recheck to make certain all screws are tight.
5.Never plane more than 3⁄16" in one pass except in the first moulding pass where you must bring up the table until the rollers contact the board.
6.Do not force-feed your work through the machine. Allow the planer to apply the proper feed rate.
7.Use sound lumber with no loose knots and with as few tight knots as possible.
8.The hood should always be DOWN and covering the cutterhead when the motor is on.
9.Do not stand directly in front of or in back of the workpiece as it is feeding through your power tool. Stand to one side.
10.After a long period of operation, stop the machine, disconnect the power, and check the cutterhead gibs and screws for tightness.
11.Habits – good and bad – are hard to break. Develop good habits in your shop and safety will become second-nature to you.
12.Check the feed roller bearings occasionally to be sure chips are not lodged between bearings and the side plate. If bearings are not seated firmly, the feed rollers will not hold stock firmly against the bed, and kickback will occur.
13.Never stand directly in line with either the infeed or outfeed side. Always stand to one side of the machine. With any power tool, kickback is always a possibility.

SECTION 2: CIRCUIT REQUIREMENTS
110V Operation |
|
220V Operation |
|
|
|
|
|
|
The motor supplied with the G1037 is a dual voltage motor, prewired for 110V. Under normal use, the motor draws approximately 17 amps @ 110V, 8.5 @ 220V. We recommend using a 20 amp circuit breaker or a 30 amp slow blow fuse for 110V or 220V operation. This should be satisfactory for normal use, while preventing motor damage from high heat caused by overload. If frequent circuit failures occur when using the planer/moulder, contact our service department or your local electrical contractor.
An instruction sheet has been included for rewiring for 220V. If this sheet is missing, call the appropriate service center for more information. Do not attempt to rewire without the instruction sheet.

Grounding
CAUTION: THIS TOOL MUST BE GROUNDED WHILE IN USE TO PROTECT THE OPERATOR FROM ELECTRIC SHOCK.
In the event of an electrical short, 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 equip- ment-grounding conductor. The plug must be plugged into a matching outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances. Figure 2.

Figure 2.
Improper connections of the electrical-grounding conductor can result in risk of electric shock. The conductor with green or green and yellow striped insulation is the electrical-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.
Under no circumstances should the grounding pin from any plug be removed. If it will not fit the outlet, have the proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
Check with a qualified electrician or one of our service personnel if the grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if in doubt as to whether the tool is properly grounded.
Repair or replace damaged or worn cord immediately.

Clean up |
|
Site Considerations |
|
|
|
|
|
|
The column and other unpainted parts of the Model G1037 are coated with a waxy oil that protects them from corrosion during shipment. Remove the protective coating with mineral spirits and paper towels. Do not use gasoline or other petroleum based solvents because of their extremely low flash points. Do not use chlorinebased solvents – if you happen to splash some onto a painted surface, you’ll ruin the finish.
WARNING!
Follow the safety rules listed below when working with solvents:
1.Read and follow all directions and warnings on the solvent label.
2.Work only in a well ventilated area.
3.Do not work near any type of open flame (e.g., pilot lights, kerosene heaters, and so on).
4.DO NOT smoke while working with flammable material.
5.Paper towels from the cleaning process are extremely combustible. Dispose of waste towels so they do not create a fire hazard.
1.Floor Load: Your G1037 Planer/Moulder represents a large weight load in a small footprint. Most commercial floors are suitable for the Model G1037. Some residential floors may require additional build up to support both machine and operator.
2.Working Clearances: Consider existing and anticipated needs, size of material to be processed through each machine, and space for auxiliary stands, work tables or other machinery when establishing a location for you Planer/Moulder.
3.Lighting and Outlets: Lighting should be bright enough to eliminate shadow and prevent eye strain. Electrical circuits should be dedicated or large enough to handle amperage requirements. Outlets should be located near each machine so power or extension cords are clear of high-traffic areas. Observe local electrical codes for proper installation of new lighting, outlets, or circuits.

SECTION 4: ASSEMBLY
Stand Assembly
Most of your Planer/Moulder has been assembled at the factory. The few remaining pieces should go together quickly and easily. With just a few simple hand tools, completion of your new Planer/Moulder is quite straight forward.
We have organized the assembly process into steps. Please follow them in sequence.
Caution: All die-cut metal parts have a sharp edge (called “flashing”) on them after they are formed. This is removed at the factory. Sometimes though, a bit of flashing might escape inspection. Please examine the edges of all diecut metal parts before handling them.
Figure 3. Overview of stand parts.
1.Locate the four legs and the long upper and lower stand braces.
2.The square mounting holes on either side of the legs are not the same. On one side the square holes are parallel to the leg, at an angle on the other. Attach the long upper and lower braces to the side with the parallel holes. Use the 5/16" - 18 x 5/8" Carriage bolts,
5/16" - 18 Hex nuts, and 5/16" Flat washers provided. Hand tighten for now. Figure 4.
Figure 4.
3.Attach the short upper and lower braces to the stand panels assembled in step 1.
