Noise emission

Notes concerning noise emission

Given that there exists a relationship between noise level and exposure times, it is

not precise enough to determine the need for supplementary precautions. The

factors affecting the true level of exposure to operators are clearly the amount of

time exposed, the characteristics of working environment other sources of dust and

noise etc. For example, adjacent machines in other words the level of ambient

noise. It is possible that exposure level limits will vary from country to country.

Receiving your machine.

Note. It is probable that your machine will be delivered by a third party. Before you

unpack your new machine, you will need to first inspect the packing, invoice, and

shipping documents, supplied by the driver.

Insure that there is no visible damage to the packing, or the machine. You need to

do this prior to the driver leaving. All damage must be noted on the delivery

documents and signed by you, and the delivery driver. You must then contact the

seller, [Laguna Tools] within 24 hours.

Introduction to jointer.

The jointer is designed to give you years of safe service. Read this owner’s manual

in its entirety before assembly or use.

The jointer is generally defined as a machine that cuts planks of wood flat, and

smooth. The machine achieves this by the plank being pushed along a flat table,

and passing the plank over a revolving cutter head.

There are many types of cutter head, and this machine uses an inserted cutter type.

The insert cutters main advantage is to reduce tear out of the grain, but the finish is

not as smooth as the parallel blade system. It is well within the capabilities of a belt

sander to give a professional finish to the jointed plank.

The parallel blade system, gives a finish without the lines that the insert cutter

system gives, but, is susceptible to tear out, especially on planks with knots. On

balance, it is better to use a machine with the insert cutters than the parallel blades,

as it greatly reduces the risks of having to scrap valuable wood, or spending

excessive time sanding tear out marks.

Additional instructions for the use of the jointer.

Like all machines, there is danger associated with the machine. Injury is frequently

caused by lack of knowledge or familiarity. Use this machine with respect. If normal

safety precautions are overlooked or ignored, serious personal injury may occur.

1. Kickback.

"Kickback" is when the work piece is thrown off the jointer table by the cutter head.

Always use push blocks and safety glasses to reduce the likelihood of injury from

“kickback”. The "kickback zone", is the path directly through the end of the in feed

table. Never stand or allow others to stand in this area during operation. If kick back

occurs, severer injury may occur.

2. Cutter head alignment.

To reduce the possibility of kickback, keep the top edge of the out feed table aligned

with the cutter head insert at top dead centre (TDC).

3. Push blocks.

The cutter heads are extremely dangerous and you must never pass your hands

over the cutter head. Always use push blocks whenever surface planning.

4. Supporting the work.

Only make cuts if the work piece is stable and never attempt to cut unstable planks,

or injury may occur.

6.Cutting depth.

Never exceed the maximum cutting depth as stated in the specification for your

machine. It is far better to take several small cuts rather than large cuts.

7. Direction of cut

Jointing against the grain or jointing end grain is dangerous and could produce

chatter or excessive chip out. Always joint with the grain.

8.Guards.

Guards are designed to reduce the risk of injury. Always use the guards. If it is

imperative to use the machine without the guards, [Rabbeting] always replace the

guards.

9.Cutting direction.

Only cut from the in feed table to the out feed table, and always complete the cut.

Do not stop the wood progress until the job has cleared the cutter head completely.

Only cut with the grain or at a slight angle to the grain.

10. Stock.

Your safety will be greatly enhanced if you only use good lumber. Only work with

lumber after you have inspected it completely. Staples, Nails Loose knots and any

other metal in the plank will damage your cutter head and could case injury and or

fire. If you have any question about a piece of lumber, do not use it.

The jointer doe’s not have many parts. The major parts are discussed in this

manual. If you are not familiar with the jointer, take the time to read this section and

become familiar with the machine.

1. Out feed Table.

2. In feed Table.

3. Fence.

4. Cutter head Guard.

5. Dust port.

6. Table height adjusting handles.

7. Body.

8. Mobility kit.

9. Start and stop switches.

10. Table clamp handles.

Out feed Table.

The function of the out feed table is to support the job once it has been machined by

the cutter head. The out feed table must be adjusted level with the cutter head teeth

at top dead centre [TDC].

In feed Table.

The in feed table is adjusted to suit the depth of cut that is required.

Note. Never exceed the maximum depth of cut specified for your machine. It is far

safer to take many small cuts rather than one large cut.

Fence.

The fence is used to keep the job square to the cutter head and is also used to

produce angle cuts on the edges of panels. The fence can be adjusted from 90 to 45

degrees.

Cutter head Guard.

The guard is there to protect you. Always adjust the guard to expose only the

minimum amount of cutter to suit the job width.

Dust port.

The dust port is designed to allow maximum extraction of saw dust and wood

chippings. Connect a 4” flexible dust collection hose between the machine and your

dust extraction system.

Note. The stronger the dust collector the better.

Table height adjusting handles.

The hand wheels adjusts the tables to the required height.

Body.

The body of the machine supports the table etc. It is manufactured from heavy

gauge steel and provides a heavy base that is designed for rigidity.

Mobility kit.

The mobility kit allows the machine to be moved to various locations within your

work area.

Start & stop switches.

The switches are used to start and stop the machine.

Table clamp handles.

The table clamp handles lock the table in position after adjustment.

Serial and data plate.

This plate is mounted on the back of the machine.

Where to locate your Machine.

Before you unpack your machine, select the area where you will use your machine.

There are no hard and fast rules for its location, but, below are a few guidelines.

1. There should be an area around the machine suitable for the length of wood that

you will be machining.

2. Adequate lighting. The better the lighting, the more accurate, and safely

you will be able to work

3. Solid floor. You should select a solid flat floor, preferably concrete or

something similar.

4. Close to power source and dust collection.
