SAFETY GUIDELINES FOR PLANER

• Wait for the cutter to stop before setting the tool down. An exposed, rotating cutter may engage the

surface and result in possible loss of control and serious injury.

• Hold the power tool by insulated gripping surfaces only, because the cutter may contact its

own cord. Cutting a “live” wire may make exposed metal parts of the power tool “live” and could give the

operator an electric shock.

• Use clamps or another practical way to secure and support the workpiece to a stable platform.

Holding the work by your hand or against the body leaves it unstable and may lead to loss of control.

• The label on your tool may include the following symbols. The symbols and their definitions are

as follows:

V ..................... Volts

A ..................... Amperes

Hz ................... Hertz

W .................... Watts

min ................. Minutes

............... Alternating current

............. Direct current

................... No-load speed

............... Class II Construction

…/min ........... Revolutions or reciprocation per minute

............... Grounding terminal

BPM ............... Beats per minute

.............. WARNING – To reduce the risk of injury, user must read instruction manual.

.............. WARNING – To reduce the risk of injury always wear ear protection.

• Always start the planer before blade is in contact with the workpiece and allow the blade to

come to full speed before contacting the workpiece. The tool can vibrate or chatter if the blade speed

is too slow at beginning of the cut and can possibly kickback.

• Check the workpiece for nails. If there are nails, either remove or set them well below intended

finished surface. If the planer blades strike objects like nails it may cause the tool to kickback and serious

personal injury may result.

• Unplug the planer before changing accessories. Before plugging the tool in, check that the trigger lock

is “OFF”. Accidental start-ups may occur if planer is plugged in while changing an accessory.

• Always hold the tool firmly with both hands for maximum control.

• Never pull the plane backward over the workpiece. Loss of control may occur.

• Always wear ear and eye protection and a breathing mask.
