Remaining risks:
The operating instructions for this
electrical tool contains comprehensive tips
for the safe handling of electrical tools.
However, every electrical tool has a certain
level of remaining risks which cannot be
excluded by the protective mechanisms
on the device. Only operate electrical tools
always with necessary care.
Remaining risks may be, for example:
• Touching rotating parts or tools.
• Injury caused by flying tools or tool
parts.
• Risk of fire with insufficient ventilation
of the motor.
• Adverse effects on the hearing caused
by working without ear defenders.
The ability to work safely is dependant on
the familiarity of the operator when it
comes to handling the given electrical tool.
Appropriate knowledge of the machinery
and careful behaviour when working help
to minimise the remaining risks.
WARNING! During operation, this
power tool generates an electro -
magnetic field. This field may, under
certain circumstances, influence active
or passive medical implants.
In order to
reduce the risk of serious or deadly
injuries, we recommend persons with such
a medical implant to consult their doctor
and the manufacturer of the medical
implant before using the power tool.
6 – Safety instructions
relating specifically to
the equipment
• Use only sharp, undamaged blades!
• Do not use blades of high-speed
steel!
• Use only blades which are permitted
for the specified speed!
• The electric planer must always be
started first before it is applied to the
workpiece!
• When planing, ensure that the planer
sole is resting squarely on the surface!
• When planing, feed the planer
carefully and evenly. Forcing the feed
rate may lead to accidents and
premature wear to the blade!
• Empty collecting bag for shavings
regularly. A blocked shavings ejector
pipe may cause heat to build up!
• Do not put the planer down until the
motor has come to a dead stop.
• Do not fasten the electric planer to a
jig or fixture. It is not intended for
stationary use!
• Wait until the blade shaft has come to
a standstill before putting the power
tool down. An openly resting and
rotating blade shaft may catch on the
surface and result in a loss of control
as well as serious injuries.
• Only hold the power tool by the
insulated handles since the blade
shaft is capable of cutting its own
power cable. Contact with a power-
carrying cable may also put metal
parts of the unit under power and
cause an electric shock.
• Affix and secure the work piece to a
stable surface using clamps or
another suitable method. If you hold
the work piece with your hand only or
