For your safety and for the proper operation of the machine, ensure that the chip deflector is secured before operation. The chip deflector directs wood chips away from the cutterhead during operation, and it covers the cutterhead and feed rollers for operator safety.
To secure the chip deflector:
1.Align the chip deflector with the two studs mounted at the exit side of the planer.
2.Set chip deflector in place and use the two wing nuts and washers to secure. See Figure 5.

Once assembly is complete, you are ready to test run the machine.
DO NOT attempt to investigate or adjust the machine while it is running. Wait until the machine is turned off, unplugged and all working parts have come to a complete stop before you do anything!
To test run the planer:
1.Plug the planer into the power source.
2.Move the ON/OFF switch to the ON position. Make sure that your finger is poised on the STOP button, just in case there is a problem.
3.Run the Model G0505 for a short time to ensure that the moving parts are working properly with no excessive vibration.
The planer should run smoothly, with little or no vibration or rubbing noises. Strange or unnatural noises should be investigated and corrected before operating the machine further.
If any problem develops, correct it before attempt- ing to use the machine.
If you cannot locate the source of unusual noises, contact our service department for help.
