Site Considerations
FLOOR LOAD
Your new planer represents a small weight load in a small sized footprint. Most shop floors will be adequate for the weight of this machine, the work- bench, the operator and the material being processed; however, some floors may require additional support. Contact an architect or struc- tural engineer if you have any question about the ability of your floor to handle the weight.
WORKING CLEARANCES
Working clearances can be thought of as the dis- tances between machines and obstacles that allow safe operation of every machine without lim- itation. Consider existing and anticipated machine needs, size of material to be processed through each machine, and space for auxiliary stands or work tables. Also consider the relative position of each machine for efficient material handling. Be sure to allow yourself sufficient room to safely run your machines in any foreseeable operation.
LIGHTING AND OUTLETS
Lighting should be bright enough to eliminate shadow and prevent eye strain. Electrical circuits should be dedicated or large enough to handle combined motor amp loads. Outlets should be located near each machine so power or extension cords are not obstructing
Make your shop “child safe.” Ensure that your workplace is inaccessible to children by closing and locking all entrances when you are away. DO NOT allow unsupervised children or visitors in the shop at any time.
