Danger! Electrical Hazard

Operate machine in dry environment only.
Operate machine only on a power source
matching the following requirements (see
also "technical specifications"):

-

fuse protection by a residual current oper-
ated device (RCD) of 30 mA sensitivity;

-

outlets properly installed, earthed and
tested;
Position power supply cable so it does not
interfere with the work and is not damaged.
Protect power supply cable from heat,
aggressive liquids and sharp edges.
Use only rubber-jacketed cable of sufficient
lead cross-section.
Do not pull on power supply cable to unplug.

·

After the machine with all safety devices has
been assembled, plug the power cable in.

Operation

·

Check the following for proper operation before
starting work:

-

On/off switch;

-

anti-kickback lock;

-

cutterblock cover;
·Use personal protection gear:
-dust respirator;
-hearing protection;
-safety glasses.
·Assume proper work position for planing:
-in front of the machine on the infeed side;
-frontal to the machine;
·Use if required for the type of work:
-Workpiece support (e.g. roller stand) – to
prevent machine from tipping by workpiece
weight;
-push stick (feeding aid) –for small work-
pieces that are not drawn in by the machine;
-dust extraction kit (accessory);
-sliding wax – to make workpieces run
smoothly through the machine. Apply a thin
film of sliding wax to surface of both infeed
and outfeed table.
ADanger!
-Keep your hands away from the machine's
inside! Risk of personal injury by the rotat-
ing planer knives.
-Use a push stick (feeding aid) if you are to
feed small workpieces into the planer.
-Do not jam workpiece. Risk of kickback.
-Remove jammed stock only after the
motor is at complete standstill and the
power cable unplugged.
-Replace dull planer knives immediately.
Risk of kickback, if a dull knife gets caught
in the workpiece's surface.
cEntanglement hazard
-Do not wear loose clothing, jewelry or
gloves, which can get caught by rotating
machine parts.
-Contain long hair with a hairnet.
