. Keep bystanders, children, and visitors away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control. Protect others in the work area from debris such as chips and sparks. Provide barriers or shields as needed. ELECTRICAL SAFETY 4. Grounded tools must be plugged into an outlet properly installed and grounded in accordance with all codes and ordinances. Never remove the grounding prong or modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs.
PERSONAL SAFETY 10. Stay alert. Watch what you are doing, and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not use a power tool while tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or medication. A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury. 11. Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Contain long hair. Keep your hair, clothing, and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry, or long hair can be caught in moving parts. 12.
20. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, and any other condition that may affect the tool’s operation. If damaged, have the tool serviced before using. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained tools. 21. Use only accessories that are recommended by the manufacturer for your model. Accessories that may be suitable for one tool may become hazardous when used on another tool. SERVICE 22. Tool service must be performed only by qualified repair personnel.
3. Your tool must be plugged into an appropriate outlet, properly installed and grounded in accordance with all codes and ordinances. The plug and outlet should look like those in the following illustration. (See Figure A.) FIGURE A DOUBLE INSULATED TOOLS: TOOLS WITH TWO PRONG PLUGS 4. Tools marked “Double Insulated” do not require grounding. They have a special double insulation system which satisfies OSHA requirements and complies with the applicable standards of Underwriters Laboratories, Inc.
EXTENSION CORDS 1. Grounded tools require a three wire extension cord. Double Insulated tools can use either a two or three wire extension cord. 2. As the distance from the supply outlet increases, you must use a heavier gauge extension cord. Using extension cords with inadequately sized wire causes a serious drop in voltage, resulting in loss of power and possible tool damage. (See Figure C, next page.) 3. The smaller the gauge number of the wire, the greater the capacity of the cord.

The Guide: 1. The Guide (64) can be used to adjust the width of cut, support the Planer, and keep the Planer from drifting away from the cut line (i.e., the edge of a door). The Guide may be attached either to the right side of the Planer or on its left side. To do so, position the Planer on the wood stock that is to be cut. Loosen the Screw (47) located at the front of the Planer. Insert the Guide into the mounting hole located on either side toward the front of the Planer.
the wood stock. Then, transfer pressure to the Rear Base Plate, and continue planing slowly to the end of the cut. Do not pull the Planer back over the surface already cut. (See Figure G.) 6. If necessary, repeat Step #5, using progressively deeper cuts until you near the desired depth. Then, readjust the Depth Knob (48) to make a light cut for the final pass. (See Figure G.)
