ASSEMBLY
-11-
•
Lighting: Lighting should be bright enough
to eliminate shadows and prevent eye
strain.
•
Working Clearances: Consider your current
and future shop needs with respect to the
safe operation of this machine.
•
Outlets: Make sure the electrical circuits
have the capacity to handle the amperage
requirements for your Model W1694. Refer
to
page 9 for more information. Electrical
outlets should be located near the lathe, so
power or extension cords are clear of high-
traffic areas.
The exposed and unpainted jointer surfaces are
coated with a waxy oil to prevent rust during
storage and shipment. DO NOT use chlorine
based solutions or solvents to remove the this
waxy oil, or you will damage the painted sur-
faces. Remove the waxy oil with a solvent based
degreaser before you use the jointer. Always
follow all usage and safety instructions of the
product that you are using.
ONLY ALLOW TRAINED
PEOPLE in your shop! Make
sure shop entrances are
locked and machines are
correctly turned off with
lock-out devices when not
in use. Otherwise, injury
or death can occur.
DO NOT use flammables
such as gas or other
petroleum-based solvents
to clean your machine.
These products have low
flash points and present
the risk of explosion and
severe personal injury!
DO NOT smoke while
using cleaning solvents.
Smoking may cause
explosion or risk of fire
when exposed to these
products!
ALWAYS work in a well
ventilated area when
using solvents with
fumes, and keep away
from any potential igni-
tion sources (pilot
lights). Most solvents
used to clean machinery
are toxic when inhaled
or ingested. Always dis-
pose of waste rags in a
sealed container to make
sure they do not cause
fire or environmental
hazards.
For information on the correct dust collection
components for the jointer, contact your
Woodstock International dealer for a copy of the
Dust Collection Basics handbook and available
accessories.
THIS MACHINE produces
sawdust that may cause
allergic reactions or res-
piratory problems. Wear
a dust mask or respirator
in addition to using a dust
collection system.
