START / STOP SWITCH


The arm (E-Fig. 9) on which the pushbutton
switch is located is shipped in the down
position. The screws (F-Fig. 9) should be
loosened with a 10mm hex wrench and the
arm pivoted to upright position. Re-tighten
screws.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION


IMPORTANT: Make sure the electrical
characteristics are the same between the
motor nameplate and the power source, and
make sure the circuit on which the jointer will
be used is properly fused and that the wire
size is correct.

WARNING: Electrical connections
must be made by a qualified
electrician. The machine must be
properly grounded to help avoid
electric shock and possible death.


1.

Connect wires both to junction box and

power source (see electrical schematic, page
34). The green wire (ground) must be
properly grounded.

2.

After wiring is complete, turn motor on

momentarily to check for proper direction of
rotation (cutterhead should rotate toward
infeed table). If rotation is in the wrong
direction, disconnect machine and switch any
two of the hot leads. Reconnect power and
confirm proper rotation.

3.

Run the machine without cutting for a

short time to check that all powered functions
are operating properly.
