BELT REPLACEMENT

When it becomes necessary to replace the belt on your
jointer:
Disconnect machine from power source.
1. Remove screw (A) Fig. 44, using hex wrench
supplied, and remove belt guard (B).
2. Loosen three screws (C) Fig. 45, to release belt
tension and remove belt (D) from pulleys.
3. Assemble new belt to the cutterhead and motor
pulleys. Press down on motor pulley (E) Fig. 45, to
tension belt and tighten three screws (C).
NOTE: There should be approximately 1/4 inch deflection
in the belt (D) at the center span of the pulleys using light
finger pressure. The belt does not require excessive
tension to function properly.
4. Replace belt guard (B) Fig. 44.
KEEP MACHINE CLEAN
Periodically blow out all air passages with dry compressed
air. All plastic parts should be cleaned with a soft damp
cloth. NEVER use solvents to clean plastic parts. They
could possibly dissolve or otherwise damage the material.
Wear certified safety equipment for
eye, hearing and respiratory protection while using
compressed air.
FAILURE TO START
Should your machine fail to start, check to make sure
the prongs on the cord plug are making good contact
in the outlet. Also, check for blown fuses or open circuit
breakers in the line.

MAINTENANCE

LUBRICATION & RUST PROTECTION
Apply household floor paste wax to the machine table,
extension table or other work surface weekly. Or use a
commercially available protective product designed for
this purpose. Follow the manufacturer's instructions for
use and safety.
To clean cast iron tables of rust, you will need the
following materials: a sheet of medium Scotch-Brite™
Blending Hand Pad, a can of WD-40 ® and a can of
degreaser. Apply the WD-40 and polish the table surface
with the Scotch-Brite pad. Degrease the table, then apply
the protective product as described above.
