JX|6 & JX|8 Quadtec:I Jointers \ Safety
WEARING PROPER APPAREL. Do not wear clothing, apparel or jewelry that can become entangled in moving parts.
Always tie back or cover long hair. Wear non-slip footwear to reduce risk of slipping and losing control or accidentally
contacting cutting tool or moving parts.
HAZARDOUS DUST. Dust created by machinery operations may cause cancer, birth defects, or long-term respiratory
damage. Be aware of dust hazards associated with each workpiece material. Always wear a NIOSH-approved respirator
to reduce your risk.
HEARING PROTECTION. Always wear hearing protection when operating or observing loud machinery. Extended
exposure to this noise without hearing protection can cause permanent hearing loss.
REMOVE ADJUSTING TOOLS. Tools left on machinery can become dangerous projectiles upon startup. Never leave
chuck keys, wrenches, or any other tools on machine. Always verify removal before starting!
USE CORRECT TOOL FOR THE JOB. Only use this tool for its intended purpose—do not force it or an attachment to do a
job for which it was not designed. Never make unapproved modifications, modifying tool or using it differently than
intended may result in malfunction or mechanical failure that can lead to personal injury or death!
AWKWARD POSITIONS. Keep proper footing and balance at all times when operating machine. Do not overreach! Avoid
awkward hand positions that make workpiece control difficult or increase the risk of accidental injury.
CHILDREN & BYSTANDERS. Keep children and bystanders at a safe distance from the work area. Stop using machine if
they become a distraction.
GUARDS & COVERS. Guards and covers reduce accidental contact with moving parts or flying debris. Make sure they
are properly installed, undamaged, and working correctly BEFORE operating machine.
FORCING MACHINERY. Do not force machine. It will do the job safer and better at the rate for which it was designed.
NEVER STAND ON MACHINE. Serious injury may occur if machine is tipped or if the cutting tool is unintentionally
contacted.
STABLE MACHINE. Unexpected movement during operation greatly increases risk of injury or loss of control. Before
starting, verify machine is stable and mobile base (if used) is locked.
USE RECOMMENDED ACCESSORIES. Consult this owner’s manual or the manufacturer for recommended accessories.
Using improper accessories will increase the risk of serious injury.
UNATTENDED OPERATION. To reduce the risk of accidental injury, turn machine OFF and ensure all moving parts
completely stop before walking away. Never leave machine running while unattended.
MAINTAIN WITH CARE. Follow all maintenance instructions and lubrication schedules to keep machine in good working
condition. A machine that is improperly maintained could malfunction, leading to serious personal injury or death.
DAMAGED PARTS. Regularly inspect machine for damaged, loose, or wrongly adjusted parts—or any condition that
could affect safe operation. Immediately repair/replace BEFORE operating machine. For your own safety, DO NOT
operate machine with damaged parts!
MAINTAIN POWER CORDS. When disconnecting cord-connected machines from power, grab and pull the plug—NOT the
cord. Pulling the cord may damage the wires inside. Do not handle cord/plug with wet hands. Avoid cord damage by
keeping it away from heated surfaces, high traffic areas, harsh chemicals, and wet/damp locations.
WARNING!
Jointer Specific Safety Instructions
LIKE ALL MACHINES, THERE IS DANGER ASSOCIATED WITH THE MACHINE. INJURY IS FREQUENTLY CAUSED BY LACK
OF KNOWLEDGE OR FAMILIARITY. USE THIS MACHINE WITH RESPECT. IF NORMAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS ARE
OVERLOOKED OR IGNORED, SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY MAY OCCUR.
1. KICKBACK
"KICKBACK" IS WHEN THE WORK PIECE IS THROWN OFF THE JOINTER TABLE BY THE CUTTER HEAD. ALWAYS USE
PUSH BLOCKS AND SAFETY GLASSES TO REDUCE THE LIKELIHOOD OF INJURY FROM “KICKBACK”. THE "KICKBACK
ZONE", IS THE PATH DIRECTLY THROUGH THE END OF THE IN FEED TABLE. NEVER STAND OR ALLOW OTHERS TO
STAND IN THIS AREA DURING OPERATION. IF KICK BACK OCCURS, SEVERE INJURY MAY RESULT.
2. CUTTER HEAD ALIGNMENT
TO REDUCE THE POSSIBILITY OF KICKBACK, KEEP THE TOP EDGE OF THE OUT FEED TABLE ALIGNED WITH THE
CUTTER HEAD INSERT AT TOP DEAD CENTER (TDC).
