Additional Safety for Planers
PLANER INJURY RISKS. Familiarize yourself with
the main injury risks associated with planers—
always use common sense and good judgement
to reduce your risk of injury.
Main injury
risks from planers: amputation/lacerations
from contact with the moving cutterhead,
entanglement/crushing injuries from getting
caught in moving parts, blindness or eye injury
from flying wood chips, or impact injuries
from workpiece kickback.
KICKBACK.
Know how to reduce the risk of
kickback 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.
REACHING INSIDE PLANER. 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
damaged 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 infeed 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.
PLANING CORRECT MATERIAL.
Only plane
natural wood stock. 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 planer at a high rate of speed
during operation. To avoid injury from flying
material, DO NOT look inside planer during
operation.
CUTTING LIMITATIONS.
To reduce risk of
kickback hazards or damage to machine,
do not exceed maximum depth of cut or
minimum board length and thickness found in
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 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
projectles or cause machine damage. Always
verify knives/inserts are secure and properly
adjusted before operation.
