Special safety instructions
• If the planer shaft blocked when working by excessive feed
force or clamping the work piece, turn off the device and dis-
connect it from the mains plug. Remove the workpiece and
make sure that the planer shaft runs freely. Turn the power
on, and run the operation again with reduced feed force.
• Do not use blunt knives. Risk of kick-back.
• The cutter block must be fully covered.
• Use a push stick to plane any short workpieces.
• Take additional safety precautions if you are planing any
narrow workpieces. It may be necessary to use lateral pres-
sure equipment and springloaded covers to ensure that you
can work in safety.
• The machine is not suitable for cutting rebates.
• The anti-kick safeguard and the infeed roller must be inspect-
ed at regular intervals.
• Machines fitted with a sawdust extractor and extractor
hoods must be connected to the devices concerned. The
type of material used can have a negative influence on the
dust generated.
• The machine is designed exclusively for the cutting of wood
and similar materials.
• The knife must be replaced immediately once it becomes
worn down by 5%.
• If a push stick is not used there may be a risk of serious
danger. The push stick should always be kept at the machine
when not used.
• There is a greater risk of danger when small workpieces are
fed in by hand. Always observe the manufacturer’s instruc-
tions on the use of the push stick.
• If the safety covers, infeed table or mesh are incorrectly
aligned they could lead to uncontrollable situations.
• Damaged or soiled workpieces may cause a risk of danger.
Never use metal parts in the machine or any materials which
can fracture or shatter. Risk of injury!
• To cut long workpieces, always place them on a mobile ta-
ble or similar type of supporting equipment. Otherwise there
is a risk that you may lose control over the workpiece.
• The machine is only suitable for planing and thicknessing.
• Wear suitable protective clothing when working with the machine:
-
ear protection to prevent damage to your ears,
-
a breathing mask to avoid the risk of inhaling hazard-
ous particles of dust,
-
safety gloves to avoid injuries from sharp edges or
knives,
-
safety goggles to avoid eye injuries from flying parts.
