Pioneer PNR 14-150 Cleaning, Site Considerations, Moving & Placing Planer, Extension Wings

Cleaning

The unpainted surfaces are coated with a waxy oil to protect them from corrosion during shipment. Remove this protective coating with a solvent cleaner or citrus-based degreaser to clean thoroughly, some parts may need to be removed. For optimum performance from your machine, make sure you clean all moving parts or sliding contact surfaces that are coated. Avoid chlorine-based solvents, such as acetone or brake parts cleaner, as they may damage painted surfaces should they come in contact. Always follow the manufacturer’s instructions when using any type of cleaning product. These items are coated and must be cleaned: Cutter head, Table, Feed Rollers, and Extension Wings.

WARNING: Gasoline and petroleum products have low flash points and could cause an explo-

!sion or fire if used to clean machinery. DO NOT use gasoline or petroleum products to clean the machinery. Many of the solvents commonly used to clean machinery can be toxic when inhaled or ingested. Lack of ventilation while using these solvents could cause serious personal health risks or fire. Take precautions from this hazard by only using cleaning solvents in a well ventilated area.

Site Considerations

!WARNING: DO NOT allow unsupervised children or visitors in shop at any time.
