Protect your hearing
•
Always wear suitable hearing protection when tool noise exceeds 85dB
Protect your breathing
•
Ensure that yourself, and others around you, wear suitable dust masks
Protect your hands
•
Do not allow hands to get close to the cutting wheel or blades. Use a suitable push stick
for shorter workpieces with appropriate power tools
Be aware of others around you
•
It is the responsibility of the user to ensure that other people in the vicinity of the work
area are not exposed to dangerous noise or dust and are also provided with suitable
protective equipment
Hidden objects
•
Inspect the workpiece and remove all nails and other embedded objects before cutting
•
Do not attempt to cut material that contains embedded objects unless you know that the
cutting tool fitted to your machine is suitable for the job
•
Walls may conceal wiring and piping, car body panels may conceal fuel lines, and long
grass may conceal stones and glass. Always check the work area thoroughly before
proceeding
Beware of projected waste
•
In some situations, waste material may be projected at speed from the cutting tool. It is
the user's responsibility to ensure that other people in the work area are protected from
the possibility of projected waste
Fitting cutting tools
•
Ensure cutting tools are correctly and securely fitted and check that wrenches / adjusters
are removed prior to use
•
Only use cutting tools recommended for your machine
•
Do not attempt to modify cutting tools
•
Ensure blades are sharp, in good condition and correctly fitted
•
Do not attempt to resharpen blades that are not suitable for resharpening, these may
include specially hardened blades or blades made from hardened alloys typically
containing tungsten
•
Blades that can be resharpened should be resharpened only according the blade
manufacturer's instructions. These may include a limited number of times the blade can
be resharpened
•
Sharpened blades should be more thoroughly inspected before use and replaced
immediately if there is any doubt about their condition and suitability for use
•
In the event blades encounter an embedded object in use that the blades are not suitable
for, blades should be replaced immediately
Direction of feed
•
Always feed work into the blade or cutter against the direction of movement of the blade
or cutter
Beware of heat
•
Cutting tools and workpieces may become hot in use. Do not attempt to change tools until
they have been allowed to cool completely
Control dust / swarf
•
Do not allow dust or swarf to build up. Sawdust is a fire hazard, and some metal swarf
is explosive
•
Be especially careful when cutting wood and metal. Sparks from metal cutting are a
common cause of wood dust fires
•
Where possible, use a dust extraction system to ensure a safer working environment
Surface Planer Safety
WARNING: Never use the tool without the appropriate guard in place or correctly adjusted.
WARNING: Any portion of the cutter block not being used for planing shall be guarded.
WARNING: When planing narrow workpieces, additional measures such as the use of
horizontal pressure devices, may be necessary to ensure safe working.
WARNING: Planing tools should not be used to cut rebate, recess, tenon or mould.
•
Use appropriate respiratory protection: Use of this tool can generate dust containing
chemicals known to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some wood
contains preservatives such as copper chromium arsenate (CCA) which can be toxic.
When sanding, drilling, or cutting these materials extra care should be taken to avoid
inhalation and minimise skin contact.
EN
•
Use only sharp blades. Handle the blades very carefully with cut-proof gloves.
WARNING: Do not use knives that are blunt as this increases the danger of kickback.
•
Ensure all cloth, cord, rags, string and similar items are removed from the work
area. To prevent entanglement in the planer mechanism
•
Allow the tool to reach full speed before making contact with the workpiece and
starting cutting
•
ALWAYS switch OFF and allow the blades to come to a complete standstill before
attempting any adjustments, cleaning or carrying out maintenance
•
Replace all blades at the same time, otherwise the resulting imbalance will cause
vibration and shorten the service life of planer and blades

•
Do not attempt to perform cutting operations that are not recommended by the
manufacturer. Stopped cuts, recesses, tenons, moulds or planing of severely bowed
wood if not permitted with this tool.
•
Do not use the planer if it has not been fixed to a secure work surface. Without sufficient
fixing the surface planer may move abruptly during operation potentially causing severe
injury to the operator.
•
Always keep the push-stick next to the infeed table during planing operations. When
planing short work pieces, the push stick should be used. Use the push-stick to feed
the workpiece when in close proximity to the blade and when the workpiece is less than
75mm thick.
•
Do not attempt planing of badly bowed material if there is inadequate contact with the
infeed table
•
When transporting the surface planer, ensure its transport handles are used (not operating
handle) and that the all locking mechanisms and guards are in securely in place
Kickback Prevention
Note: Kickback occurs when the blade stalls rapidly, as a result of being pinched, bound or
misaligned, and drives the workpiece back towards the operator. It can also pull the operator's
hand into the blade, resulting in serious injury.
WARNING: Kickback is the result of tool misuse and/or incorrect operating procedures
or conditions, however, if precautions are taken, kickback forces can be controlled by the
operator or avoided altogether:
a) NEVER attempt to cut with a dull or warped blade. ALWAYS ensure the blade is suitable for
the material to be cut.
b) ALWAYS ensure the fence/table is parallel to the blade. If the fence/table tilts inward
towards the blade, the workpiece can come into contact with the back edge of the blade.
c) Use CAUTION when cutting large workpieces. Ensure larger stock is properly supported by
adequate in-feed and out-feed supports.
d) DO NOT cut round stock or workpieces that cannot lay flat on the table. Avoid cutting
twisted, distorted or knotty wood.
e) DO NOT cut wet wood, as it produces higher friction against the blade. Wet sawdust
can accumulate on the blade, further increasing the likelihood of kickback.
f)
ALWAYS maintain a firm grip with both hands on the workpiece and position your arms to
resist kickback forces.
g) Stay out of blade path and position your body to either side of the blade, but not in line
with the blade.
h) DO NOT back out of the cut. If you have to interrupt a cut before it is complete, switch
the tool 'OFF', and remove the workpiece from the tool, once the blade has stopped
spinning.
ALWAYS use push sticks where appropriate, to guide the workpiece through the blade.
Use feather boards to hold down the workpiece wherever possible
