SPECIFIC SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR PLANERS
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
Refer to them often.
1. Do not operate this machine until you have read all of the following instructions.
2. Do not attempt to operate this machine until it is completely assembled.
3. Do not turn ON this machine if any pieces are damaged or missing.
4. This machine must be properly grounded.
5. If you are not familiar with the operation of the machine, obtain assistance from a qualified person.
6. Always wear approved, safety protective eye wear and hearing protection when operating this machine.
7. Always wear a dust mask and use adequate dust collection and proper ventilation.
8. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry when operating this machine. Keep long hair tied back.
9. Always make sure the power switch is in the OFF position prior to plugging in the machine.
10. Always make sure the power switch is in the OFF position and the machine is unplugged when doing any cleaning,
assembly, setup operation, or when not in use.
11. Make sure all safety guards and hardware are securely tightened before operating the machine.
12. Regularly check that the blades are locked tight in the cutterhead.
13. Always keep hands and fingers away from the cutterhead, chip exhaust opening, feed rollers, belts and pulleys to
prevent injury.
14. Never make planing cuts deeper than 1/8”. Multiple cuts, 1/16" or less, produce better finish results.
15. Make sure there are no loose knots, nails, staples, dirt or foreign objects in the workpiece to be planed.
16. Use extra caution with large, warped, very small or awkward workpieces. Joint warped boards flat before planing.
17. Use extra supports (roller stands, saw horses, tables etc,) for any workpieces large enough to tip when not held
down to the table top.
18. Plane wood in the same direction of the grain, not across the grain. Never plane end cuts or end grain.
19. Plane only one workpiece at a time. Vary the feeding of the workpieces along the cutterhead, center/left/right, so
that all of the knives get used and thus remain sharp, longer.
20. Never reach inside of a running machine, and avoid awkward operations and hand positions where a sudden slip
could cause fingers or a hand to move into the cutterhead.
21. Do not clear a jammed workpiece while the machine is running. Stop the planer, unplug it from the power source,
and then remove the jammed workpiece. Lowering the table may be necessary to dislodge the workpiece.
22. Keep your face and body to one side of the planer during use, out of line with a possible 'kick back' (lumber
caught in by the rotating cutterhead and thrown back towards the operator).
23. The use of any accessories or attachments not recommended may cause injury to you and damage your machine.
24. Sharpen or replace dull or chipped knives immediately, as injury to the user, or the machine, may result.
25. Replacement knives/inserts should be from, or through a source recommended by the manufacturer.
26. Remove material or debris from the work area. Keep work area neat and clean.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
California Proposition 65 Warning
WARNING: Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction activities
contains chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm.
Your risk from exposure to these chemicals varies, depending on how often you do this type of work. To reduce
your exposure, work in a well-ventilated area and with approved safety equipment, such as dust masks that are
specially designed to filter out microscopic particles.

This machine is intended for surface thickness planing of natural, solid woods. The permissible workpiece dimensions
must be observed (see Technical Specification). Any other use not as specified, including modification of the machine
or use of parts not tested and approved by the equipment manufacturer can cause unforeseen damage.
ATTENTION: Use of this planer still presents risks that cannot be eliminated by the manufacturer. Therefore, the
user must be aware that wood working machines are dangerous if not used with care and all safety precautions are
adhered to.
