times when the machine is in use. If
removed for maintenance
purposes, use extreme caution
and replace the guards
immediately.
16. Make sure the planer/thicknesser is
firmly secured to the floor or bench
before use.
17. Check damaged parts. Before
further use of the machine, a
guard or other part that is
damaged should be carefully
checked to determine that it will
operate properly and perform its
intended function. Check for
alignment of moving parts, binding
of moving parts, breakage of
parts, mounting and any other
conditions that may affect its
operation. A guard or other part
that is damaged should be
properly repaired or replaced.

surrounding work area and non-
glare, overhead lighting.

times so that you do not fall or lean
against the cutterhead or other
moving parts. Do not overreach or
use excessive force to perform any

speed and feed rate. Do not force
a tool or attachment to do a job
for which it was not designed. The
right tool will do the job better and
safer.

improper accessories may be
hazardous.

knives sharp and clean for the best
and safest performance. Follow
instructions for lubricating and
changing accessories.

compressed air to remove chips or
debris — do not use your hands.

machine tips over.

unattended. Turn the power off
and do not leave the machine
until it comes to a complete stop.

remove all extra equipment such
as keys, wrenches, scrap, stock,
and cleaning rags away from the
machine.
