nected from power source before inspecting any wiring.
The unit is wired as illustrated in the wiring schematic

2-Prong Receptacle
Rgure 15 - 2-Prong Receptacle with Adapter
Do not use a 3-prong to 2-prong grounding adapter
unless permitted by local and national codes and
---
Ordinances. (A 3-prong to 2-prong grounding adapter
is not permitted in Canada.)
Where a 3-prong to 2-prong grounding adapter is
permitted, the rigid green tab or terminal on the side
of the adapter must be securely connected to a
permanent electrical ground such as a properly
grounded water pipe, a properly grounded outlet box
or a properly grounded wire system.
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 will 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-pole receptacles which
accept the tool plug.
If the extension cord is worn, cut or damaged in any
way, replace it immediately.

DESCRIPTION
Craftsman 6 %" jointer/planer is used to surface the
faces and edges of boards, produce a fiat surface on
warped boards and shape rabbets, bevels, chamfers
and tapers. The jointer/planer features heavy cast iron
infeed and outfeed tables with precision ground work
surfaces and leadscrews for precise table height adjust-
ment. Rigid, center mount guide fence is provided with
bevel stops at 90 ° (from bed) and 45 ° .Tool comes with
locking rocker switch with removable key and push
blocks. Jointer/planer easily handles rough-cut lumber,
planes hard and soft woods up to 6 %" wide using a
three knife cutterhead, and takes cuts up to l/s",and up
to 1/=,rabbets.
OPERATION
SAFETY
RULES
Jointing is a surfacing operation in which a small
amount of wood is removed from the edges and faces 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.
