workpiece.
2. Before actually cutting with the jointer-planer, let it
run for a while. If your jointer-ptaner makes an un-
familiar noise or if it vibrates excessively, stop im-
mediately. Turn the jointer-ptaner off. Unplug the
jointer-planer. Do not restart until finding and correct-
ing the problem.
3. To avoid injury from slips, stalls or kickback, feed
the workpiece into the jointer-ptaner only fast enough
to let the tool cut without bogging down or binding.
4. Before freeing jammed material, turn switch off, re-
move switch key, unplug the jointer-planer and wait
for all moving parts to stop.
5. Never leave the jointer-planer while it is running or
before it has come to a complete stop. Remove the
switch key and store it in a safe place.
