c) Before making any adjustments, replacing
accessories or before storing the power tool, it is
necessary to pull the power plug out of the power
socket and/or remove the battery pack out of the
power tool, if it is removable.
These preventative
safety measures limit the danger of accidentally
starting the power tool.
d)
When not used, the power tool must be
stored out of children‘s reach, and persons
not acquainted with the power tool or these
instructions must not be permitted to use
the power tool.
A power tool in the hands of inex-
perienced users is dangerous.
e)
Power tools and accessories need to be main-
tained. It is necessary to check the adjus-
tment of moving parts and their movement;
focus on cracks, broken parts or any other
circumstances that may threaten the proper
operation of the power tool. If the power
tool is damaged, it is necessary to have it
repaired before using it again.
Many accidents
are caused by insufficiently maintained power tools.
f)
It is necessary to keep cutting power tools
clean and sharp.
Correctly maintained and shar-
pened cutting power tools are less likely to get stuck
on material or to jam and they are also easier to
control.
g)
It is necessary to use power tools, accesso-
ries, working tools, etc. in accordance with
these instructions and in such a manner as
prescribed for the specific power tool with
respect to the given work conditions and the
type of work being performed.
Using power
tools for tasks other than for which they are designed
may lead to dangerous situations.
h)
Handles and grip surfaces must be kept dry,
clean and free of grease.
Slippery handles and
grip surfaces do not ensure a safe grip and control
over the power tool in unexpected situations.
5) SERVICE
a)
The power tool must be repaired by a quali-
fied person that will use identical spare parts.
This will ensure that the same level of safety will be
achieved as before the repair of the power tool.
X. Maintenance
and service
•
WARNING
y
Prior to performing service and maintenance tasks
on the planer, disconnect the power cord from the el.
power source.
REMOVING PLANER BLADES
y
When handling the planer blade, always use suitable
protective gloves to prevent injury on its sharp edge.
y
When handling the planer head and blades, be careful
to prevent injury and damaging the blades.
1) Place the planer on a firm even surface and turn the
planer base plate upwards.
2) Carefully turn the planer head so that the clamping
screws of the planer blade mounts are visible.
3) Whilst holding the planer head, loosen the three
clamping screws on the blade mount using the supplied
key in the direction indicated by the arrow, as shown
in fig. 13.
•
WARNING
y
Undesirable turning of the planer head may occur,
which could cause injuries.
4) Slide the planer blade out of the blade mount, as shown
in fig. 14. The planer head has two planer blades and
to access the second blade it is necessary to turn the
head over.
Use a brush or compressed air to remove any residual
dirt and dust from the planer head and blade.
5) The planer blade is double-sided and if one side is
blunt, it can be turned around and the second sharp
side can be used. The planer blades must be turned
around both at the same time or both replaced at the
same time. In the event that the blades are damaged,
they cannot be repaired and must both be replaced for
new ones at the same time.
•
ATTENTION
y
In the event of replacement, always used the original
blades from the manufacturer for the given planer
model.
b)
The user‘s body must not come into contact
with grounded objects, such as pipes, central
heating radiators, stoves and refrigerators.
The risk of injury by electrical shock is greater when
your body is in contact with the ground.
c)
Power tools must never be exposed to rain,
moisture or wetness.
The entry of water into the
power tool increases the danger of injury by electri-
cal shock.
d)
The flexible power cord must not be used for
any other purposes. Power tools must not be
carried or pulled by the power cord, nor may
the power plug be disconnected by pulling
on the power cord. The power cord must be
protected against heat, grease, sharp edges
or moving parts.
Damaged or tangled power cords
increase the danger of injury by electrical shock.
e)
If the power tool is used outdoors, an exten-
sion cord suitable for outdoor use must be
used.
Using extension cords designed for outdoor
use, limits the risk of injury by electrical shock.
f)
If the power tool is used in damp areas, it is
necessary to use a power supply protected
by a residual current device (RCD).
The use of
an RCD limits the danger of injury by electrical shock.
The term „residual current device (RCD)“ may be
substituted for by the term „ground fault circuit inter-
rupter (GFCI)“ or „earth leakage circuit breaker (ELCB)“.
3) SAFETY OF PEOPLE
a)
When using the power tool, the user must be
attentive and pay attention to what they are
currently doing and must concentrate and
use common sense. The power tool must not
be used when the user is tired or under the
influence of drugs, alcohol or medication.
Momentary inattentiveness when using the power
tool may result in serious injury to persons.
b)
Use personal protective aids. Always wear
eye protection.
Use protective aids, such as a respi-
rator, safety footwear with anti-slip soles, hard head
cover or hearing protection appropriately to the work
conditions; they reduce the risk of injury to persons.
c)
It is essential to avoid accidentally starting
the power tool. It is necessary to check that
the trigger is in the Off position before
plugging the power plug into a power socket
and/or when connecting the battery pack,
lifting or carrying the power tool.
Carrying the
power tool with a finger on the trigger or connecting
the power tool‘s plug with the switch engaged may
cause an accident.
d)
It is necessary to remove all adjustment
tools and spanners before turning on the
power tool.
An adjustment tool or spanner left
attached to a rotating part of the power tool may
result in injury to persons.
e)
The user may only work in locations that
they can reach safely. The user must always
maintain a stable stance and balance.
This
will provide better control over the power tool in
unforeseeable situations.
f)
Dress in an appropriate manner. Do not wear
loose clothing or jewellery. The user must
ensure that they have hair and clothing at
a sufficient distance from moving parts.
Loose clothing, jewellery and long hair may become
caught in the moving parts.
g)
If there is equipment available for the
extraction and collection of dust, it is nece-
ssary that such equipment is connected and
used correctly.
The use of such equipment may
limit the danger posed by the created dust.
h)
The user must not become complacent and
start ignoring the fundamentals of power
tool safety due to the routine arising from
frequent use of the power tool.
Careless
activity may cause serious injury within a fraction of
a second.
4) OPERATING AND MAINTAINING
POWER TOOLS
a)
Power tools must not be overloaded. It
is necessary to use power tools that are
designed for the work being performed.
Appropriate power tools for a given task will do the
job better and with greater safety.
b)
Power tools that cannot be turned on and off
with a trigger/switch must not be used.
Any
power tools that cannot be controlled using a trigger/
switch are dangerous and must be repaired.
