Safety Instructions For Portable Planers
1.USE ONLY FOR WOOD. This machine is not designed to process any material other than wood.
2.ALWAYS KEEP FINGERS AND HANDS AWAY FROM ROTATING CUTTERHEAD. Never attempt to clear chips away from the base of the chip chute when the machine is running. Stop the machine, unplug it, then clear away the debris.
3.NEVER OPERATE WITH DULL OR DAMAGED BLADES. Check blades frequently for sharpness or damage. Damaged or dull blades put excessive strain on the machine and can cause loss of control of the unit.
4.ENSURE PLANER IS PROPERLY ADJUSTED BEFORE STARTING. Always use a test piece to check the adjustment and operation before starting on the actual workpiece.
5.DO NOT REMOVE EXCESSIVE AMOUNTS OF WOOD IN A SINGLE PASS. Better results can be achieved by taking multiple passes with a small amount of material removal in each pass.
6.INSPECT STOCK THOROUGHLY BEFORE PLANING. Look stock over for any grit, sand, nails, staples or other foreign materials before per- forming planing operations. Foreign materials can damage the blade and can throw off debris which may cause injury.
7.MAKE SURE WORKPIECE IS SECURELY CLAMPED OR OTH- ERWISE HELD IN PLACE. Also make sure the clamps will not obstruct the movement of the Planer as it progresses through the cut. Hitting an unexpected obstruction can cause potential loss of control of the machine.
