Safety Notes
| |
|---|---|
- Wear safety goggles. Eyeglasses are NOT safety goggles.
- This machine is LOUD. Wear hearing protection.
- No loose clothing, neckties, rings, or other jewelry. Roll up sleeves. Wear shoes with good traction. Do not wear gloves.
- Switch on the dust collector before feeding stock into the machine. It is a Coral AF/2C two-filter collector shared with the Powermatic 1696 Jointer.
- Keep safety guards in place at all times when the machine is in use.
- If the machine is damaged, place a RED tag on it explaining the problem. Do not attempt to fix it yourself.
| |
|---|---|
| Maintenance Request Tag. |
- Maintain a balanced stance at all times so that you do not fall or lean against moving parts. Do not overreach or use excessive force to perform any machine operation.
- Do not feed stacked boards. They can kick back.
- Do not plane a board with loose knots or with nails or any foreign material on its surface. Twisted, warped, or wind-in stock should first be jointed on one surface before attempting to plane a parallel surface on the planer. Serious stock flaws cannot be removed by use of a planer alone.
- Keep hands outside of the machine. Never reach under the guards to try to clear stock that has stopped feeding.
- When starting a cut, do not have any part of the hands under that part of the board that is over the table; the infeed roller will engage the board and force it down against the table causing a pinching action.
- Never leave the machine running unattended.
