KICKBACK..
Know how to reduce the risk of
kickback and kickback-related injuries.
“Kickback” occurs during operation when
the workpiece is ejected from the machine
at high 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.
AVOID.CONTACT.WITH.MOVING.PARTS.
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 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 with this planer. DO NOT
plane MDF, OSB, plywood, laminates or other
synthetic materials that can break up inside
the planer and be ejected towards operator.
LOOKING.INSIDE.PLANER..
Wood chips fly around
inside the 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 the risk of
kickback hazards or damage to the machine,
do not exceed the maximum depth of cut or
minimum board length and thickness found
in the
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 the 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
projectiles or cause machine damage. Always
verify knives/inserts are secure and properly
adjusted before operation.
