•
Turn switch off and disconnect power whenever
jointer/planer
is not in use.
•
Replace or sharpen blades as they become damaged
or dull.
•
Do not attempt to perform an abnormal or little used
operation without study and the use of adequate hold-
down/push blocks, jigs, fixtures, stops and the like.
•
Keep jointer/planer
maintained. Follow maintenance
instructions (see pages 10-11).
DEPTH OF CUT
Refer to Figure 10.
The depth of cut is adjusted by the relative positioning
of the infeed table with respect to the cutterhead. Infeed
table can be raised or lowered using the handwheel.
Turning the handwheel counterclockwise
will lower the
infeed table causing more wood to be removed from
workpiece. Turning the handwheel clockwise will raise
the infeed table causing less wood to be removed from
workpiece.
Do not make jointing or planing cuts deeper than 1/8".

CHECK
DEPTH OF CUT
Refer to Figure 11.
•
Place a straight edge on the outfeed table extending
over the infeed table.
•
Measure from the surface of the infeed table to the bot-
tom of the straight edge. This will be the depth of cut.
NOTE: This jointer/planer
will make a maximum 1/8"
deep cut. To reduce the danger of kickback and possi-
ble injury, we recommend taking cuts of 1/16" o r less.
CAUTION:
Make sure the switch is in the OFF posi-
tion and the cord is unplugged from power source
before performing this check.

POSITIONING
FENCE
The fence can be adjusted to cut any angle from 0o-45 °
inward and outward. The fence can be tilted inward up
to 45 ° (toward the cutterhead) to maintain greater sta-
bility of a narrow workpiece or up to 45 ° outward (away
from cutterhead) for larger angle cutting operations.
To adjust tilting angle:
•
Loosen fence tilting handle.
•
The fence tilting handle is spring loaded. To continue
turning the handle, gently pull the handle away from
the fence and return it to the original position.
•
Release the handle and continue loosening.
•
Manually tilt fence inward/outward to the desired
angle. Use a bevel scale or protractor to measure tilt
angle.
NOTE: The fence has positive stops at 0 ° (90 ° from
table), 45 ° inward and 45 ° outward.
•
Tighten fence tilting handle.
•
To continue tightening, gently pull the handle away
from fence and return the handle to the original posi-
tion.
•
Release the handle and continue tightening.
•
Make sure the fence is tight and secure.
The fence can be positioned so that any desired width
of the blade is exposed.
To adjust fence position:
•
Loosen fence sliding handle.
•
Slide fence forward to the desired position.
•
Tighten fence sliding handle.
•
Make sure fence is tight and secure.
CAUTION:
Do not remove blade guard. Make sure
that the cutterhead is covered all the time.
CAUTION:
Do not slide fence away from the jointer
body. All sides of the cutterhead must be covered all the
time.
BLADE
GUARD
The blade guard provides protection over the cutter-
head. It must always be in place and function properly.
Check the guard to make sure it functions properly. To
check:
•
Pass a 1/4"thick piece of wood over the cutterhead
between the guard and the fence. The guard will
spread and leave way for the wood piece to pass.
The guard must return to the original position auto-
matically when the wood piece is removed.
•
Open the blade guard all the way until it stops, and
release it several times. It should always return to its
original position by spring action.
CAUTION:
If the blade guard fails to operate properly,
the spring must be replaced or adjusted.
•
To replace spring, contact your nearest Sears store
or service center.
•
To adjust or to assemble spring see "Adjusting Blade
Guard", page 10.
