TROUBLESHOOTING
Cleaning
• Keep the ventilation vents of the planer clean at all times, if possible, prevent
foreign matter from entering the vents.
• After each use, blow air through the planer housing to ensure it is free from
all dust particles which may build up. Build up of dust particles may cause the
planer to overheat and fail.
• If the enclosure of the planer requires cleaning, do not use solvents but a
moist soft cloth only. Never let any liquid get inside the planer; never immerse
any part of the planer into a liquid.
Carbon Brushes
When the carbon brushes wear out, the planer
will spark and/or stop. Discontinue use as soon
as this happens. They should be replaced prior to
recommencing use of the planer. Carbon brushes
are a wearing component of the planer, and are not
covered under warranty. Continuing to use the planer
when carbon brushes need to be replaced may
cause permanent damage to the planer. Carbon brushes will wear out after
many uses but when the carbon brushes need to be replaced, take the planer
to an electrician or a power tool repairer for a quick and low cost replacement.
Always replace both carbon brushes at the same time.
Note: Ozito Industries will not be responsible for any damage or injuries caused
by the repair of the planer by an unauthorised person or by mishandling of the
planer.
Sparking visible through the housing air vents
A small amount of sparking may be visible through the housing vents. This is
normal and does not indicate a problem.
Excessive sparking visible through the housing air vents
and/or the planer failing to operate
May indicate the carbon brushes have worn out and need to be
replaced. Carbon brushes should only be replaced by a qualified
electrician or power tool repairer.
Spare parts can be ordered from the Special Orders Desk
at your local Bunnings Warehouse.
