Amputation, serious cuts, entanglement, or death can occur from contact with rotating
cutterhead or other moving parts! Flying chips can cause eye injuries or blindness. Workpieces
or knives thrown by cutterhead can strike nearby operator or bystanders with deadly force. To
reduce the risk of these hazards, operator and bystanders MUST completely heed hazards and
warnings below.
PLANING CORRECT MATERIAL. Only plane
natural wood stock with this planer. DO NOT
plane MDF, OSB, plywood, laminates or other
synthetic materials that can break up inside the
planer and be ejected towards the operator.
LOOKING INSIDE PLANER. Wood chips fly
around inside the planer at a high rate of speed
during operation. To avoid injury from flying mate-
rial, DO NOT look inside planer during operation.
CUTTING LIMITATIONS. To reduce the risk of
kickback hazards or damage to the machine, do
not exceed the maximum depth of cut or minimum
board length and thickness found in the
Data
Sheet. Only feed one board at a time.
INFEED ROLLER CLEARANCE. The infeed
roller is designed to pull material into the spinning
cutterhead. To reduce the risk of entanglement,
keep hands, clothing, jewelry, and long hair away
from the infeed roller during operation.
FEED WORKPIECE PROPERLY. To reduce the
risk of kickback, never start planer with workpiece
touching cutterhead. Allow cutterhead to reach
full speed before feeding, and do not change feed
speed during cutting operation.
WORKPIECE SUPPORT. To reduce the risk of
kickback, always make sure workpiece can move
completely across table without rocking or tipping.
Use auxiliary support stands for long stock.
SECURE KNIVES/INSERTS. Loose knives or
improperly set inserts can become dangerous
projectiles or cause machine damage. Always
verify knives/inserts are secure and properly
adjusted before operation.
KICKBACK. Know how to reduce the risk of kick-
back and kickback-related injuries. “Kickback”
occurs during the operation when the workpiece is
ejected from the machine at a high rate of speed.
Kickback is commonly caused by poor workpiece
selection, unsafe feeding techniques, or improper
machine setup/maintenance. Kickback injuries
typically occur as follows: (1) operator/bystanders
are struck by the workpiece, resulting in impact
injuries (i.e., blindness, broken bones, bruises,
death); (2) operator’s hands are pulled into blade,
resulting in amputation or severe lacerations.
AVOID CONTACT WITH MOVING PARTS. Never
remove guards/covers or reach inside the planer
during operation or while connected to power.
You could be seriously injured if you accidentally
touch the spinning cutterhead or get entangled in
moving parts. If a workpiece becomes stuck or
sawdust removal is necessary, turn planer
OFF
and disconnect power before clearing.
DULL/DAMAGED KNIVES/INSERTS. Only use
sharp, undamaged knives/inserts. Dull or dam-
aged knives/inserts increase the risk of kickback.
INSPECTING STOCK. To reduce the risk of
kickback injuries or machine damage, thoroughly
inspect and prepare the workpiece before cutting.
Verify workpiece is free of nails, staples, loose
knots or foreign material. Workpieces with minor
warping should be jointed first or planed with the
cupped side facing the table.
BODY PLACEMENT. Stand to one side of planer
during the entire operation to avoid getting hit if
kickback occurs.
GRAIN DIRECTION. Planing across the grain
is hard on the planer and may cause kickback.
Plane in the same direction or at a slight angle
with the wood grain.
