CLEANING THE PLANER
Keep planer clean of any wood chips, dust, dirt or debris.
We strongly recommend always using a dust collection
system.
Make sure to clean out the planer after every use.
After 10 hours of operation, the drive chains and sprockets should have wood chips, dust and old grease removed.
While wearing ANSI-Z87.1-approved safety glasses, use a couple puffs of compressed air (do not exceed 50 PSI)
to blow dust and chips out of the gearbox and drive chains.
Use common automotive bearing grease to lubricate all drive chains and sprockets. Spray the gearbox with a light
coat of dry lubricant. Clean the table and infeed / outfeed rollers using a soft, damp cloth. Do not use any waxes,
oils or solvents on the table.
NOTE:
The buildup of dust, wood shavings, and other debris can significantly shorten the planer’s useful life. Keep
your planer clean! Failure to do so will void the warranty.
