Always wear eye protection when operating the machine.
Check to make sure all holding screws are tight before starting machine.
Always stop the motor and disconnect from power source before making any adjustments.
Be sure all guards are in place before operation.
Read owner’s manual thoroughly and familiarise yourself with the machine before operation.
Do not force work through the machine. Allow the planer to apply the proper feed rate.
Check feed rollers occasionally to be sure sawdust and chips are not lodged between any components. If rollers are not seated firmly, the feed rolls will not hold timber firmly against the bed, allowing kickback.
Only plane wood boards.
Use sound timber, with no loose knots and as few tight knots as possible.
Never stand directly in line with either the infeed or outfeed sides. Always stand off to one side of the machine.
Make sure the workpiece is free of from nails, screws stones and other foreign objects which could damage the blades.
Make sure the blades are attached correctly as described in the instructions.
Use caution when handling the blades and cutterhead assembly. The blades are sharp and can easily cut your hand.
Allow the cutterhead to reach full speed before using.
