Read and understand the Operator’s Manual,
and the Engine/Motor Manufacturer’s Owner’s Manual
before operating this equipment.
Death or serious injury can result if this machine is used improperly.
Safety Guidelines
Eye and ear protection must be worn at all times when this machine is in use. During normal use,
sound levels exceed 92dB. Use only ANSI approved safety glasses to help prevent eye injury. Every-
day eyeglasses have only impact resistant lenses; they are NOT safety glasses.
Operator must wear appropriate clothing and footwear. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry that can get
tangled or caught in moving parts. Steel toe safety shoes should be worn.
•
Maintain the machine in safe operating condition with all guards in place and secure, all mechanical fasteners
tight, all controls in working order and the machine confi gured for the job application. Be sure all safety decals can
be clearly read and understood. Replace damaged or missing decals immediately.
•
The CPM-4-8-10 and ScariLite-8 Planers are designed to plane fl at, horizontal concrete or asphalt slabs. They
may be called Planers, Mills, Grinders or Scarifi ers and may be equipped with gasoline, propane engines or
electric motors. They are designed to be operated by a single operator from a position at the rear of the equip-
ment.
•
Keep a safe operating distance to other personnel in the area and never leave the machine running unattended.
•
Avoid deck inserts, pipes, columns, openings, electrical outlets, or any objects protruding from slab surface.
•
Never operate this machine while under the infl uence of drugs, alcohol or when taking medications that impair the
senses or reactions, or when excessively tired or under stress.
For Electric Models:
Electric motors must be properly grounded at all times. Check the outlet box to be sure the electrical
service is properly grounded. Be sure adequate power is available. Insuffi cient power will cause a
motor to overheat and burn out. Use only grounded extension cords correctly sized for the current
draw and voltage drop (amp rating and length). Never use frayed, damaged, taped or under rated
extension cords. Electrical shock could result in death or serious injury to the operator and damage to
the equipment.
For Gasoline or Propane Models:
Poisonous exhaust gas. Do not operate gasoline or propane powered equipment without adequate
ventilation. Carbon monoxide is an invisible, odorless gas that can kill. NEVER REFUEL A HOT
ENGINE OR AN ENGINE WHILE IT IS RUNNING. Only refuel a cool “stopped” engine in a well
ventiated area. Properly clean any spilled fuel before starting the engine.
Safety warnings and guidelines do not by themselves eliminate danger.
They are not given as substitutes for proper accident prevention and good judgement.
