Hand safety. Keep hands outside the machine. NEVER reach under the guards to try to clear stock that
stops feeding. Do not clear chips and sawdust with hands; use a brush. Do not have any part of the hands
under that part of the board that is over the table when starting a cut; the infeed roller will engage the board
and force it down against the table causing a pinching action. Do not operate machine while the gear cover is
open.
Cutterhead rotation: Be sure cutterhead rotates under power in a counterclockwise direction when viewed
from the drive belt side.
Material condition: Do not plane boards with loose knots or with nails or any foreign material on its surface.
Knife impact on these objects can cause the knives to be pulled out and cause them to shatter against the
chipbreaker or pressure bar. Twisted, warped, or in wind stock should first be jointed on one surface before
attempting to plane a parallel surface on the planer. Serious stock flaws cannot be removed by use of a
planer alone.
Cutting Depth: Do not exceed maximum cutting depth of 3/16”. It is easier and much safer to take smaller
cuts and make several passes.
Machine adjustments: Make all machine adjustments with power off except feed rate.
Job completion. If the operator leaves the machine area for any reason, the planer should be turned "off"
and the cutterhead should come to a complete stop before his departure. In addition, if the operation is
complete, he should clean the planer and the work area. Never clean the planer with power "on" and never
use the hands to clear sawdust and debris; use a brush.
Replacement parts. Use only Powermatic or factory authorized replacement parts and accessories;
otherwise the warranty and guarantee is null and void.
Misuse. Do not use this Powermatic planer for other than its intended use. If used for other purposes,
Powermatic disclaims any real or implied warranty and holds itself harmless for any injury or damage which
may result from that use.
If you are not thoroughly familiar with the operation of planers, obtain advice from your supervisor, instructor
or other qualified person.
Drugs, alcohol, medication. Do not operate this machine while under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or any
medication.
Health hazards. Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling and other construction
activities contains chemicals known to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some
examples of these chemicals are:
* Lead from lead-based paint.
* Crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products.
* Arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated lumber.
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you do this type of work. To reduce your
exposure to these chemicals, work in a well-ventilated area, and work with approved safety equipment, such
as those dust masks that are specifically designed to filter out microscopic particles.
