This machine must be grounded. Replacement of the power supply cable should only be

done by a qualied electrician. See page 5 for additional electrical information.

WIRING DIAGRAM

For 120V wiring; connect the black & white motor terminal wires to the black switch wire lead, and connect the blue &

brown terminal wires to the white switch wire lead. Disregard the red wires that lead to the capacitor.

For 240V wiring; tie the black & brown terminals together, connect the white motor terminal wire to the white switch

wire lead, and connect the blue motor terminal wire to the black switch wire lead. Disregard the red wires that lead to the

capacitor.

MAINTENANCE

1. Before each use:

- Check the power cord and plug for any wear or damage.

- Check for any loose screws or hardware.

- Check the area to make sure it is clear of any misplaced

tools, lumber, cleaning supplies, etc. that could hamper the

safe operation of the planer.

2. To avoid a build-up of wood dust, regularly clean all

parts of the machine using a soft cloth, brush or com-

pressed air. A general cleaning should be done after every

use to avoid future problems and ensure the machine is in

ready condition for the next time it is used.

WARNING: If blowing sawdust, wear proper eye protection

to prevent debris from blowing into eyes.

3. Check the knives to make sure that they are not loose

from the cutterhead, dull or nicked. Making sure that they

are in proper operating condition will ensure that the quality

of your surfaced lumber will be the best possible.

4. Lubricate all bearing points and chains regularly with a

few drops of light motor oil. Cutterhead ball bearings are

lifetime lubricated, sealed, and do not need any further

care. Keep the drive belts free of oil and grease.

5. Clean the planer bed columns on a regular basis to pre-

vent the build-up of wood chips and dust. Treat the posts

with a dry lubricant spray. Do not use ordinary oil which will

collect dust and hamper the operation of the machine.

Turn the power switch “OFF” and disconnect the plug from the outlet prior to adjusting or maintaining

the machine. DO NOT attempt to repair or maintain the electrical components of the motor. Contact a qualied service

technician for this type of maintenance.

6. Keep the jointer and planer tables free of resin and

rust. Clean them regularly with a non-flammable solvent,

then coat with a light film of dry lubricant spray, or wax, to

enhance passage of workpiece on/over the tables.

WARNING: When cleaning or working on the tables, avoid

the risk of personal injury by cuts that may result from

touching the knife inserts' sharp edges! Lower the planer

table to its maximum 'down' position, so that there is ample

distance between the table and the cutterhead's sharp

inserts for your safety.

7. Clean the feed rollers with a soft rag, and non-amma-

ble solvent if there is resin build-up on the metal rollers.

Do not apply solvents on a 'rubber' coated roller, as it may

affect the material. Be careful to keep hands away from the

sharp cutterhead knife inserts. Do not apply any lubricant

to the rollers as they must 'grab' the lumber to move it

through the planer and so must not slip.

8. Check the anti-kickback fingers to make sure that they

are clean of any dust or resin, so that they swing freely.

Lubricate only with a dry lubricant, never oil or grease.

9. Check the belt tension after the first 3-5 hrs. of opera-

tion to ensure that the belts have not become stretched

and loose from their 'breaking in' use. See page 17 for

instructions.
