CAUTION:
Planing too fast increases chip build-up in the chip
exhaust and can result in a poor finish. Chip build-
up restricts air flow and can cause motor overheating.
Plane slowly and empty dust bag often to prevent
damage.
Keep cord away from cutting area. Always place the cord
to prevent it from hanging on the work while cutting.
OPERATION
DANGER:
If the cord hangs up on the work during a cut,
release the trigger switch immediately. Unplug
your planer and check cord for damage. If no
damage, reposition the cord to prevent it from
hanging up again. If the cord has been damaged,
have it replaced before using your planer.
WARNING:
Using your planer with a damaged cord could
cause electrical shock resulting in serious injury.
Know the right way to use your planer.
See Figure 5
.
Never use your planer as shown in
Figures 6 and 7
.
Always keep control of your planer. It makes cutting easier
and safer. To help keep control, always support your work
so the cut will be on your right. Clamp your work so it will
not move during the cut.
See Figure 5
. The work moving
during a cut could result in the loss of control of your
planer possibly causing serious injury.
