UNPACKING

Carefully lift the tool from the carton and place it on a
level work surface. This machine is heavy. Avoid back
injury and get help when needed.

Do not discard the packing materials until you have
carefully inspected the tool, identified all loose parts, and
satisfactorily operated your new planer.

Examine all parts to make sure no breakage or damage
has occurred during shipping.

If any parts are damaged or missing, do not attempt to plug
in the power cord and turn the switch on until the damaged
or missing parts are obtained and are installed correctly.

WARNING:

To prevent accidental starting that could cause possible
serious personal injury, assemble all parts, make sure all
adjustments are complete, and make sure all fasteners
are secure before connecting portable planer to power
supply. Portable planer should never be connected to
power supply when you are assembling parts, making
adjustments, installing or removing blades, or when not in
use.

Your portable planer has been shipped completely
assembled except for the dust chute and dust chute knobs.

Remove all loose parts from the carton.

Separate and check with the list of loose parts.

 See

Figure 2.

Remove the packing materials from around your planer.

WARNING:

If any parts are missing, do not operate this tool until the
missing parts are replaced. Failure to do so could result
in possible serious personal injury.
