Congratulations on purchasing an Ozito Planer. 
We aim to provide quality tools at an affordable price.
We hope you will enjoy using this tool for many years.

Your Ozito Planer OZPL400A has been designed for
planing timber and is intended for DIY use only.

Warning!

When using mains-powered equipment, basic safety

precautions, including the following, should always be followed to
reduce risk of fire, electric shock, personal injury and material damage.

Read and understand the manual prior to operating this tool.

Save these instructions and other documents supplied with this tool for
future reference.

The electric motor has been designed for 230V and 240V only. Always
check that the power supply corresponds to the voltage on the rating plate.

Note:

The supply of 230V and 240V on Ozito tools are interchangeable

for Australia and New Zealand.

If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by an electrician or a
power tool repairer in order to avoid a hazard.

Note:

Double insulation does not take the place of normal safety

precautions when operating this tool. The insulation system is for added
protection against injury resulting from a possible electrical insulation
failure within the tool.

Using an Extension Lead

Always use an approved extension lead suitable for the power input of
this tool. Before use, inspect the extension lead for signs of damage, wear
and ageing. Replace the extension lead if damaged or defective.

When using an extension lead on a reel, always unwind the lead
completely. Use of an extension lead not suitable for the power input of
the tool or which is damaged or defective may result in a risk of fire
and/or electric shock.
