15. Keep safety guards in place at all 

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.

18. Provide for adequate space 

surrounding work area and non-
glare, overhead lighting.

19. Keep the floor around the 

machine clean and free of scrap 
material, oil and grease.

20. Keep visitors a safe distance from 

the work area. Keep children 
away.

21. Make your workshop child proof 

with padlocks, master switches or 
by removing starter keys.

22. Give your work undivided 

attention. Looking around, 
carrying on a conversation and 
“horse-play” are careless acts that 
can result in serious injury.

23. Maintain a balanced stance at all 

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 
machine operation.

24. Use the right tool at the correct 

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.

25. Use recommended accessories; 

improper accessories may be 
hazardous.

26. Maintain tools with care. Keep 

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

27. Turn off the machine before 

cleaning. Use a brush or 
compressed air to remove chips or 
debris — do not use your hands.

28.  Do not stand on the machine. 

Serious injury could occur if the 
machine tips over. 

29. Never leave the machine running 

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

30. Before turning on machine, 

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

31. Always use a hold-down or push 

block when surfacing stock less 
than 300mm inches long, or 75mm 
wide, or 75mm thick.

32. Do not perform edge jointing 

operations on material shorter than 
150mm, narrower than 18mm or 
less than 6mm thick.
