INSTALLING THE POWER PLUG
The Planer/Jointer is shipped
without
an electrical 220
volt plug, so that the correct plug type can be installed to
match the 220 Volt outlet in your shop.
WARNING:
Please see page 5 for information on electrical
safety and proper plug connections and usage.
The plug
MUST
be plugged into a matching electrical
receptacle that is properly installed and grounded in accor-
dance with
ALL
local codes and ordinances.
CHECK
with
a qualified electrician or service personnel if you do not
completely understand the grounding instructions, or if you
are not sure the tool is properly grounded when installing
or replacing a plug.
INSTALLING THE CUTTERHEAD GUARD
The cutterhead guard is shipped in two parts; the Arm and
Bracket Assembly pre-assembled on the outfeed table,
and the Guard separately. When fully assembled, the
cutterhead guard can be adjusted to provide maximum
protection to the user from the cutterhead's sharp insert
knives. Always operate the machine with the guard
properly adjusted for the width and thickness of your stock
being jointed. Keep the guard covering the full cutterhead
when the machine is not in use to avoid any accidents.
WARNING:
When working on, or near the machine's bed,
avoid the risk of personal injury by cuts that may result
from touching the knife inserts' sharp edges!
1. Insert the 16-7/8 long x 4" wide Cutterhead Guard
(#371) through the guard assembly Sleeve (#373). The
guard will slide back and forth to cover the cutterhead, and
can be secured in position with the sleeve's top Handle/
Knob (#375). FIG. 4.
The whole Cutterhead Guard Assembly can also be
rotated off of the jointer table to give unrestricted access to
the cutterhead for surfacing lumber at the maximum jointer
width, or for working on the cutterhead.
1. Release the spring-loaded Handle (#385, FIG. 5, A),
and the guard assembly will move forward and off of the
Locking Support (#387) that is bolted to the outfeed table.
2. With its release from the support, the whole guard
assembly can now be rotated to the left where it will hang
down out of the way below the jointer table. FIG. 6
3. Reverse the process to re-install the guard assembly
onto the jointer table for normal surfacing protection.
NOTE: Extra care must be taken when the Cutterhead
Guard Assembly is rotated off the machine, as the
sharp knives of the cutterhead are exposed!
THE MACHINE MUST NOT BE
PLUGGED IN AND THE POWER SWITCH MUST BE IN
THE OFF POSITION UNTIL ALL ADJUSTMENTS ARE
COMPLETE.
This tool is intended for use on a circuit that has a 220
volt electrical receptacle.
