place protected from rain.
● Keep work area well-lit.
2. TO AVOID INJURY FROM UNEXPECTED
THICKNESSER MOVEMENT:
● Bolt or clamp the thicknesser to a firm
level surface where there is plenty of
room to move the workpiece through
the entire cut.
● Support the thicknesser so the tables
are level and thicknesser does not rock.
● Put the thicknesser where operators
nor bystanders will stand in line with
the wood while planning.
● To avoid injury from electrical shock,
make sure your fingers do not touch
the plug’s metal prongs when plugging
in or unplugging the thicknesser.
● Turn OFF and unplug the thicknesser
before moving it to a new area. To
avoid back injury, get help when you
need to lift the thicknesser.
● Bolt the thicknesser to the floor if it
tends to move when planning long,
heavy boards.
● DO NOT STAND ON THE
THICKNESSER. Do not store
materials above or near it. Standing
on the tool to reach materials could
result in serious injury if it tips or is
accidentally contacted.
