BLADE CARE
Gum and pitch which collect on the blades causes excessive friction as the work progresses, resulting
in blade overheating, less ef ficient cutting, and reduced blade life. DISCONNECT THE MACHINE
FROM THE POWERSOURCE and carefully wipe the blades clean using Gum and Rust Remover.
In time, gum and pitch may appear on the t able and fence and other p art s of the jointer , resulting in
reduced ef ficiency and accuracy. The use of a good quality p aste wax will aid in preventing gum and
pitch from accumulating on the machine.
