Default Jointer Safety Help

I flexed my credit card & bought a 6" jointer, 14" bandsaw, 16.5" drill
press, 650 CFM dust collector & 12.5" planer from a guy getting out of
woodworking. (All Jet except the Delta planer.) IMO the "Jet blue" clashes
violently with the "Grizzly green" of my table saw & sander but I suppose
I'll get used to it. ;-)

I've made a few test cuts with the jointer & it scares me. IDAGS on
"jointer safety" but so far all the hits are pretty generic. "Don't cut too
deep, no nails or loose knots, no hands over the cutter unless you're using
push blocks, ..." Are there some good sites for learning to use the jointer
and still be able to do10-finger typing for the rest of my life?

Thanks.

-- Mark
