WARNING:
Before turning switch “ON”, make sure
the blade guard is correctly installed and operating
properly to prevent serious personal injury.
16. On-Off Switch
Turns the tool on and off. The “yellow button” is a key.
When it is inserted in the switch lever, the power may
be turned ON and OFF. When it is removed, the
power cannot be turned ON. This feature is intended
to help prevent unauthorized and possible hazardous
use by children and others.
The on-off switch is shaped to make turning it ON
accidentally less likely.
In an emergency, it can be turned OFF by striking it
with the palm of the hand.
• Insert key into switch.
• To turn the tool “On”, insert finger under the switch
lever and pull end of lever out.
• To turn the tool “Off”, push the lever in. Never leave
the tool unattended until it has come to a complete
stop.
• To lock the switch in the “Off” position, hold the
switch in with one hand and remove the key with the
other hand as shown.
WARNING:
To prevent unauthorized use always
lock the switch “OFF” when jointer/planer is not in use.
Remove key and keep it in a safe place to prevent
serious personal injury. In the event of a power failure,
turn switch off. Lock it and remove the key. This will
prevent the jointer/planer from starting up again when
the power comes back on.
