OPERATION S AFETY
RULES
WARNING:
For your own safety, read all of the instructions
and precautions before operating tool.
WARNING:
Operation of any power tool can result in foreign
objects being thrown into eyes which can result in severe eye
damage. Always wear safety goggles complying with United
States ANSI Z87.1 (shown on package) before commencing
power tool operation.
CAUTION:
Always observe the following safety precautions:
Know general power tool safety. Make sure all precautions
are understood (see pages 2 and 6).
Whenever adjusting or replacing any parts on planer, turn
switch OFF and remove plug from power source.
°
Make sure all guards are properly attached and securely
fastened.
Make sure all moving parts are free from interference.
Always wear eye protection or face shield.
°
Make sure blades are aligned and properly attached to
cutterhead.
°
Do not plug in planer unless switch is in OFF position.
After turning switch on, allow planer to come to full
speed before operating.
°
Keep hands clear of all moving parts.
°
Do not force cut. Slowing or stalling will overheat motor.
Allow automatic feed to function properly.
*
Use quality lumber. Blades last longer and cuts are
smoother with good quality wood.
Do not plane material shorter than 15", narrower than 3/,,,
wider than 13" or thinner than W'.
Never make planing cut deeper than 3/32".
Maintain the proper relationships of infeed and outfeed
table surfaces and cutterhead blade path.
Do not back the work toward the infeed table.
Take precautions against kickback. Do not permit anyone
to stand or cross in line of cutterhead's
rotation. Kickback
or thrown debris will travel in this direction.
Turn switch off and disconnect power whenever planer is
not in use.
Replace blades as they become damaged or dull.
Keep planer maintained. Follow maintenance instructions
(see pages 9-12).
