Do not allow pitch to accumulate on the tables, the
fence, the cutter guard, the cutter head or the knives.
Clean them with Craftsman Gum and Pitch Remover.
Apply a thin coat of paste type wax to the tables and
the fence so that the wood slides easily while feeding.
This also deters rusting.
Do not allow chips to accumulate on the underside of
the jointer-planer.
If power cord is worn Or cut, or damaged in any way,
have it replaced immediately.

If disassembly of the motor is necessary, it should be
returned to your nearest Sears retail or mail order store
in order to prevent voiding the guarantee.

changed.
Motors used on wood-working tools are particularly sus-
ceptible to the accumulation of sawdust and wood chips
and should be blown out or ,'vacuumed" frequently to
prevent interference with normal motor ventilation.
