serious injury. We recommend using some type
of fixture, jig, or hold-down device as a safer
alternative. And ALWAYS use a guard or other
type of protective device at all times.
10. AVOIDING CUTTER AND WORKPIECE GRAB:
Always make sure cutter is positioned in the
correct direction before starting shaper, and
always feed against the rotation of the cutter.
11. SAFELY USING ALTERNATE TABLE CONFIGU-
RATIONS: Always use overhead guard when
the fence is not in place. The overhead guard
reduces the risk of contacting the cutterhead.
12. SAFE CUTTER INSTALLATION: Never oper-
ate the shaper without verifying that the
spindle nut is tight. A tight spindle nut reduces
the risk of the cutter or rub collars flying off
during operation.

need assistance. Serious personal injury may
occur if safe moving methods are not followed.
CLEAN UP
The unpainted surfaces are coated with a waxy
oil to protect it from corrosion during ship-
ment. Remove this protective coating with
a solvent cleaner or citrus-based degreaser.
Avoid chlorine-based solvents as they may
damage painted surfaces should they come in
contact. Always follow the usage instructions
on the product you choose for clean up.
WARNING: Do not use gasoline or other
petroleum-based solvents. They have low flash
points, which make them extremely flam-
mable. A risk of explosion and burning exists
if these products are used. Serious personal
injury may occur if this warning is ignored.
CAUTION: Many of the solvents commonly
used to clean machinery can be toxic when
inhaled or ingested. Always work in well-venti-
lated areas far from potential ignition sources
when dealing with solvents. Use care when
disposing of waste rags and towels to be sure
they do not create fire or environmental haz-
ards. Keep children and animals safely away
when cleaning and assembling this machine.
WARNING: Do not smoke while using sol-
vents. A risk of explosion or fire exists and may
be the result serious personal injury may occur.
SITE CONSIDERATIONS
FLOOR LOAD. This jointer represents a mod-
erate weight load in a small footprint. Most
commercial or home shop floors should be
sufficient to carry the weight. If you question
the strength of your floor, you may wish to
check with an architect or structural engineer
in your area to make certain it can handle the
load.
WORKING CLEARANCES
Working clearances can be thought of as the
distances between machines and obstacles that
allow safe operation of every machine without
limitation. Consider existing and anticipated
machine needs, size of material to be processed
through each machine, and space for auxiliary
stands and/or work tables. Also consider the
relative position of each machine to one an-
other for efficient material handling. Be sure
