CONTROL PANEL OPERATION
The MP260 is operated via the control panel located at the infeed
end of the machine. The top right light on the control panel will illu-
minate when power is being supplied to the machine. The bottom
row of buttons starts each motor independently of the others. After
you are certain the machine is correctly set up and clear of any
tools or loose items, start only the motors you will be using.
NOTE:
None of the motors will start if the planer’s observation/protec-
tive lid is not securely closed, or if the Emergency Stop Button is
depressed.
The MP260 is equipped with a lid switch that must be engaged before the machine can
be started by the control panel buttons.
