Extension Cords; Operation Safety Rules - Craftsman 351.286281 Operator's Manual

• Many cover plate screws, water pipes and outlet
boxes are not properly grounded. To ensure proper
ground, grounding means must be tested by a quali-
fied electrician.
EXTENSION CORDS
• The use of any extension cord wJlJ cause
some drop
In voltage and loss of power.
• Wires of the extension cord must be of sufficient size
to carry the current and maintain adequate voltage.
• Use the table to determine the minimum wire size
(A.W.G._ extension cord.
• Use only 3-wire extension cords having 3-.prong
grounding type plugs and 3-pele receptacles which
accept the tool plug.
• If the extension cord is worn, cut or damaged in any
way, replace it immediately.

Up to 50 ft................................ 16
50-100 ft.................................. 14
NOTE'. Using extension cords over 100 ft. long Is not
recommended.

The motor is assembled with an approved three con-
ductor cord to be used on 120 volts as Indicated. The
power supply to the motor is controlled by a double
pole locking rocker switch.
• Remove the key to prevent unauthorized use.
The power lines are inserted directly onto the switch.
The green ground line must remain securely fastened
to the frame to properly protect against elecVical shock.
DESCRIPTION
Craftsman 6%" jointer/planer is used to s_Jrfacethe faces
and edges of boards, produce a fiat surface on warped
boards and shape bevels, chamfers and tapers. The joint-
er/ptaner features cast aluminum iofeed and ouffeed
tables, lightweightplastic body with smooth work surfaces
and lead screws for precise table height adjustment.
Balanced guide fence tilts 45 ° (Inw_d) and 45 ° (outward).
Tool comes wlt_ iockJng ro_er switch with removable key
and push blocks.Jointer/placer easily handles rough-cut
lumber, planes hard and soft woods up to 6_ " wide using
a two blade cuttorhead, and takes cuts up to %".
OPERATION SAFETY RULES
dothtlng Is a surfeclng operatLon in which a smaLL
amount of wood is removed from the edges and feces of
boards to get smooth, straight and even surfaces such
that the two edges that run across the planing blocks
would fit together perfectly, forming a seamless joint.
Planing refers to the sizing of lumber to a desired thick-
hess while creating a level surface parallel to the oppo-
site size of the board. Depth of cut is the term used to
iedlcete how deep the blades will cut into the workplece.
WARNING: Operation of any power tool Can result in
foreign objects being thrown into eyes which can result
in severe eye damage. Always wear safety goggles
cemplylng with United States ANSi Z87.1 (shown on
package) before commencing power tool operation.
WARNING: For your own safety,,read art of _he
insb'uctlons and safety precautions before operating
tool.
• Know general power tool safety. Make sure all pre-
cautions are understood (see pages 2, 3, 5 and 6).
• Whenever adjusting or replacing any parts on
jointer/planer, turn switch off and remove plug from
power source.
• Make sure all guards ere properly attached and
securely fastened.
• Make sure all moving parts are free from interference.
• Always wear eye protection or face shield.
• Make sure blades are aligned and properly attached
to cutterhead.
• Do not plug in Jolnter/planer unless switch is in -off -
position. After turning switch on, allow jointer/planer
to come to full speed before operating.
• Keep hands clear of all moving parts.
• Do not force cut. Slowing or stalling will overheat
motor.
