5 ADDITIONAL SAFETY RULES FOR THE JOINTER 1. Make sure cutterhead rotates in a clockwise direction when viewed from the stand in front of the jointer. If the cutterhead rotates counterclockwise, then check the wiring of the machine. 2. Jointing safety begins with your lumber. Inspect your stock carefully before you feed it over the cutterhad. If you have any doubts about the stability or structural integrity of your stock, do not made it. 3. Make sure maintain proper relationships of infeed and outfeed table and cutterhead path 4. Use a push block when jointer. Never place your hand directly over the cutterhead. 5. Support the work adequately at all time during operation. And maintain control over the work at all time. 6. when jointing, do not stand directly at the end infeed and outfeedof table. 7. Do not make jointer cuts deeper than 1/8 (3.2mm) 8. All operations must be performed with the qaurd in place. 9. neer back the work toward the infeed table. If a cut must be intrupted, lift the stock clear of the cutterhead. 10. Joint with the grain. Jointing against the grain is dangerous and cou;d produce chater or excessive hip out, which could lead to loss of control over the stock. 4

7 MACHINE LEGEND 1.Cutterhead: the cutterhead is the cylindrical assembly that holds each of the three joiner knives or carbide cutter. It spins on a horizontal axis between the infeed and outfeed table,and is covered by the cuttehead guard when the jointer is not in use. 2.Infeed table: The infeed table is the table where the cuttuing oparation begins. When standing in front of th the jointer, it is on the right hand side.the broad wood travels right to left. From the infeed table across the cutterhead, and onto the outfeed table. 3.Outfeed table: the oufeed table is the table where the cutting oparation ends. 4.Fence: the jointer fence is the adjustable cast iron surface that the wood lock runs along when jointing and surface planning. The fence is adjustable fom 45 to 90 with the infeed and outfeed table. 5.Table lock handles: the handles that must be loosened before the height of the tables can be adjusted. They are then tightned after the height is properly set. 6. Adjustment shaft: controls the height of the infeed and outfeed table. 7.Cutterhead Guard: the metal guard hat covers the cutterhead when Wood stock is not passing over the jointer F\igure 1 6

8 INSTALLATION Mount the machine on a solid foundation, preferably a concrete floor, and bolt the machine to the floor through the holes provided in the base. The machine area should be clean, dry, well ventilated, and well lighted. Since the jointer can create a high volume of noise, the site selection should be one which minimizes reverberant sound from walls, ceilings and other equipment. POWER WIRE CONNECTIONS Before connecting the power wires of the machine to the power supply, make sure the voltage and amperage are compatible. Check the electrical diagrams at the back of this manual for the correct voltage and wiring information. Power connections should be installed so that they are protected from damage and exposure. Be sure to properly ground the machine frame. The green wire is the grounding wire. DUST COLLECTION SYSTEM A dust collector should always be used when operating the jointer. The.dust-hole is 4 INSPECTION BEFORE OPERATION Before turning the machine power on, check that all screws are tight, that all mechanical functions work freely, and that the cutterhead turns freely without knife contact with the rear noise-dampener or front noise-dampener. Periodic or regular inspections are required to ensure that the machine is properly adjusted, that all screws are tight, all belts are in good condition, that dust has not accumulated in the electrical enclosures, and that there are no loose or worn electrical connections. Check the motor and switch wiring diagram for proper voltage connection before applying power to the machine. Turn the main drive motor on momentarily to check for proper direction of rotation. Correct as required. Cutterhead should rotate clockwise when viewed from the stand in front of the jointer. Run the machine without cutting for a short period of time to check that all power functions are operating properly. Be sure to read and understand the operating instruction manual using the jointer. 7

MACHINE ADJUSTMENTS STRAIGHT KNIFE ADJUSTMENT/INSTALLATION WARNING! Use extreme caution when working on or near the cutting knives! The knives are very sharp and extremely dangerous!

Adjusting the Knife height: 1. Turn the machine off and disconnect it from the power source. 2. Clean all dust, chips, pitch and accumulated foreign matter from the cutterhead slot and from its gib.

Note: If all knives have been removed, a new set must be installed without locking the gibs until all knives and gibs are in and the gib screws lightly in place. The locking process 4.

9 MACHINE ADJUSTMENTS STRAIGHT KNIFE ADJUSTMENT/INSTALLATION WARNING! Use extreme caution when working on or near the cutting knives! The knives are very sharp and extremely dangerous! Any adjustment or maintenance of knives should be performed on all three knives at the same time. Failure to do this may result in an unbalanced cutterhead, which will lead to bearing failure! Adjusting the Knife height: 1. Turn the machine off and disconnect it from the power source. 2. Clean all dust, chips, pitch and accumulated foreign matter from the cutterhead slot and from its gib. Remove the cutterhead guard to expose the top of utterhead. 3. Loosen the gib screws that press the knife to the gib. Note: If all knives have been removed, a new set must be installed without locking the gibs until all knives and gibs are in and the gib screws lightly in place. The locking process 4. Place the knife gauge on the outfeed table, should proceed working from the check the knife height when rotate the center out on each knife and locking all cutterhead by the hand. The jip should solidly with the feet resting on the outfeed table and the knife edge as shown in Figure 2. If the knife is adjusted properly, the knife setting gauge should rest flush across to outfeed table and onto the gib screws once. Repeat the same sequence until all screws are equally tight. Locking one knife in without the others in position can cause cutterhead distortion. top edge of the kife.if the knife dose not make contact, or if the knife causes the adjusters legs to not seat flush on outfeed table the knife need to be adjusted. 5. Repeat the preceding method on successive knives making sure that the height from knife to table is the same within mm. 6. After all knives have been adjusted, recheck all gib screw to be sure they are tight. Loose gib screws can result in knife being thrown out of the cutterhead, causing severe damage to the machine and possible serious or fatal injury to the operator or bystanders. figure 2.seting outfeed table adjust the kinfe of height with finish stock/ 8

10 Spiral cutterhead insert installation: 1. Check cutterhead insert size 14 x 14 x 2.0mm and angle Clean cutterhead & insert, set the insert in position, lubricate the M6 x 1.0 screw 3. Use an air driver to adjust air pressure to 2kg/cm 2 to pre set the insert. 4. After the pre-setting of insert, adjust air driver pressure to 6kg/cm 2 to tighten screws. The torque is kgf-m. Outfeed table: The table must be aligned Tto the highest point of the are of the knife edge. If the the out table is set too height, the stock will hit the front edge of the outfeed table and will be impossible to feed over the jointer. If the out feed table is set too low, the trailing end of the stock ill fall into the cutterhead and snip will occur. 1. Rotate the cutterhead by turning the motor pulley. Do not grab the cutterhead itself. Bring a knife-edge to approximate apex of its arc. 2. Loosen the outfeed table lock handle, push the outfeed table adjust shaft until the outfeed table is nearly flush with the knife-edge. 3. Position a finish-stock the oufeed table. Extend the finish-stock over the middle of the cutterhead as shown in Figure Raise or lowe the outfeed able with the outfeed table adjust shaft until the finish-stock barely touches the top of knife-edge. 5. Tighten the outfeed table lock handle. 6. Recheck the outfeed table alignment with each of the cutterhead knifes and re-adjust as necessary 7. Once properly set, the outfeed table height only need to be change when the kniver are resharpened. Infeed Table : To adjust the infeed table 1. The infeed table can be adjusted the same way as the outfeed table. Loosen the infeed table lock handle. 2. Place a finish-stock on the outfeed table so it hangs over the infeed table. Turn the cutterhead so that the knives are not touching the straightedge. 3. Loosen the infeed table lock handle. Raise the infeed table until it just touching the straightedge as shown in figure. Tighten the table lock knob. 4. Adjust the depth of cut scale to read 0 9

12 OPERATIONS TEST RUN 4. Then assembly is finish and adjustments are done to your satisfaction, you are ready to test run the machine. 5. Turn on the power supply at the main panel. Press the START button. Make sure that your finger is poised on the StOP button, just in case there s a problem. The jointer should run smoothly with little or no vibration or rubbing noises. Strange or Unnatural before operating the machine further. 6. If you cannot easily locate the source of an unusual noise or vibration, contact our service department for help. Stock inspection If the stock has large or loose knots, consider finding another workpiece. Knots in a workpiece can be dangerous to the operator, as well as destructive to equipment. When jointing always cut with the grain rather than against it. Cutting against the grain chips the wood instead of cutting it, making the workpeice rough and irregular. Look at the side of your board. If the direction of the grain structure facing the utterhead runs toward the cutterhead as it sits on the infeed table. Surface planning The purpose of planning on a jointer is to produce one flat surface. The theory behind this is that once you have one flat surface on a board, the board can then more readily be milled to precise, flat dimensions on a thickness planer. Ti is nearly impossible to surface plane both sides of a board effectively because the two surfaced sides will retain any warps, cup or twists. 1. Inspect your lumber for soundness and grain direction. 2. If the stock is cupped, place the concave side down and slowly feed it over the cutterhead as shown in figure Inspect your results. Most likely, many passes will be necessary before your lumber has a flat surface. 4. If the stock has large or loose knots, consider finding another workpiece. Knots in a workpiece can be dangerous to the operator, as well as destructive to equipment. 11

13 Figure 6 edge jointing Figure 7 beveling jointing Figure 8 surface planer Edge jointing The purpose of edge jointing is to produce a finished, flat-edged surface that is suitable for jointery or finishing. Jointing is also a necessary step prior to ripping stock to width on a table saw or radial arm saw. 1. Make sure the fence is set to 90. Double check it with a square. 2. Inspect stock for soundness and grain direction. 3. If the board is bowed, place the concave edge down on the infeed table. 4. Holding the stock firmly against the fence and table, feed the stock slowly and evenly over the cutterhead as shown in figure 6. 12

14 Beveling Beveling an edge is essentially the same operation as edge jointing, except that the fence is titled to a specified angle. Use extra care to ensure that the edge makes solid contact with the infeed and outfeed tables at all time. 1. Use a bevel gauge to determine the desired angle. then use the bevel to transfer this angle to the fence. 2. Tilt the fence by loosening the angle setting lock knob and moving the fence to the desired angle. Lock the handle. 3. Inspect stock for soundness and grain direction. 4. Slowly and evenly feed stock through the cutterhead. Make sure the face of the stock is completely flat against the fence and the edge is making solid contact on the infeed and outfeed table as shown in Figure 7 5. Achieving the full bevel will probably take several passes. Remember not to take more than 1/16 in one pass. 13

15 Maintainance General Regual periodic maintenamnce on the jointer will ensue its optimum performance. Make a habit of inspecting the machine. All time you use it. Check the folloeing conditions and repair or replace if necessary. 1. worn switch 2. worn or damaged cords and plugs 3. loose mounting bolts. 4. damaged V-belt. 5. any other condition that could hamper the safe operation of this machine. Lubrication: Since most of the bearings are sealed and permanently lubricalted, simply leave them alone until they need to be replaced. The cutterhead bearings do need grease after every 100 hours of use. Unplug the machine and grease each of the two grease fittings located on each end of the cutterhead. The front grease fitting is under the cutterhead guard and other is the bottom edge of the fence. Tables Table could be kept rust-free. V-belt Inspect regulary for wear; replace if necessary with a size A-49 belt. 14
