CLEANING THE CHIP EXHAUST AND
EMPTYING THE DUST BAG
See Figure 19.
After using the planer for an extended period of time or when
planing wet or green lumber, chips may build up in the chip
exhaust. Chip build-up restricts air flow and causes the
motor to overheat. Clean the chip exhaust port and empty
the dust bag regularly.
 Remove the battery pack from the tool.
 Remove the dust bag from the chip exhaust.
 Clean the build-up from the chip exhaust port with a small
piece of wood. Do not use your hands or fingers.
 Unzip the dust bag.
 Empty all debris from the dust bag and ensure that the
collar is free of debris.
 Replace the dust bag.
