STARTING AND STOPPING THE JOINTER
Make sure that the switch is in the
"OFF" position before plugging cord
into outlet. Do not touch the plug's metal prongs when
unplugging or plugging in the cord.
In the event of a power outage (such
as a breaker or fuse trip), always move
the switch to the "OFF" position until the main power is
restored.
The On/Off switch (A), indicated in Figure 11, is located
on the front of the jointer cabinet. To turn the machine
"ON," move the switch to the up position. To turn the
machine "OFF," move the switch to the down position.
LOCKING THE JOINTER USING THE SAFETY KEY
®
1. Your DELTA
6" Bench Jointer uses a safety key
that enables you to lock the tool in the "OFF"
position when not in use.
IMPORTANT: When the machine is not in use, the
switch should be locked in the "OFF" position to
prevent unauthorized use.
ADJUSTING FENCE POSITION
Disconnect the machine from the
power source before making any
adjustments!
See Figure 12.
Prior to performing any jointer operation, check to
make sure the fence position is approximately the
same as the width of the stock being jointed. For edge
jointing of thinner stock, it is recommended that you
occasionally reposition the fence to avoid dulling the
knives in one area.
1. To adjust the position of the fence, loosen the
indexing lock handle (A) by rotating it to left.
2. Move fence to proper position.
3. Retighten the indexing lock handle.
OPERATION
2. To lock the machine, remove the safety key by
pulling it straight out. With the safety key removed,
the switch will not operate.
3. Should the safety key be removed while the jointer
is running, the machine can be turned "OFF,"
but cannot be restarted unless the safety key is
re-inserted.
