Slippery handles and grasping surfaces do not
allow for safe handling and control of the tool in
unexpected situations.
5) Battery tool use and care
a) Recharge only with the charger specifi ed by the
manufacturer.
A charger that is suitable for one type of battery pack
may create a risk of fi re when used with another
battery pack.
b) Use
power
tools
designated battery packs.
Use of any other battery packs may create a risk of
injury and fi re.
c) When battery pack is not in use, keep it away
from other metal objects, like paper clips, coins,
keys, nails, screws or other small metal objects,
that can make a connection from one terminal to
another.
Shorting the battery terminals together may cause
burns or a fi re.
d) Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected
from the battery; avoid contact. If contact
accidentally occurs, fl ush with water. If liquid
contacts eyes, additionally seek medical help.
Liquid ejected from the battery may cause irritation or
burns.
e) Do not use a battery pack or tool that is damaged
or modifi ed.

or
modifi ed
unpredictable behaviour resulting in fi re, explosion
or risk of injury.
f) Do not expose a battery pack or tool to fi re or
excessive temperature.
Exposure to fi re or temperature above 130 °C may
cause explosion.
g) Follow all charging instructions and do not
charge the battery pack or tool outside the
temperature range specifi ed in the instructions.
Charging improperly or at temperatures outside
the specifi ed range may damage the battery and
increase the risk of fi re.
6) Service
a) Have your power tool serviced by a qualifi ed
repair person using only identical replacement
parts.
This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is
maintained.
b) Never service damaged battery packs.
Service of battery packs should only be performed
by the manufacturer or authorized service providers.
PRECAUTION
Keep children and infi rm persons away.
When not in use, tools should be stored out of reach of
children and infi rm persons.
CORDLESS PLANER SAFETY
WARNINGS
1. Wait for the cutter to stop before settling the tool
down.
An exposed rotating cutter may engage the surface
leading to possible loss of control and serious injury.
2. Use clamps or another practical way to secure and
support the workpiece to a stable platform.
Holding the workpiece by your hand or against the body
leaves it unstable and may lead to loss of control.
3. Do not use the Planer with the blades facing upward (as
stationary type planer).

batteries
may
exhibit
4. Always charge the battery at a temperature of 0 – 40°C.
A temperature of less than 0°C will result in over charging
which is dangerous. The battery cannot be charged at a
temperature greater than 40°C.
The most suitable temperature for charging is that of
20 – 25°C.
5. Do not use the charger continuously.
When one charging is completed, leave the charger for
about 15 minutes before the next charging of battery.
6. Do not allow foreign matter to enter the hole for
connecting the rechargeable battery.
7. Never disassemble the rechargeable battery and
charger.
8. Never short-circuit the rechargeable battery.
Short-circuiting the battery will cause a great electric
current and overheat. It results in burn or damage to the
battery.
9. Do not dispose of the battery in fi re.
If the battery burnt, it may explode.
10. Do not insert object into the air ventilation slots of the
charger.
Inserting metal objects or infl ammables into the charger
air ventilation slots will result in electrical shock hazard or
damaged charger.
11. Bring the battery to the shop from which it was purchased
as soon as the post-charging battery life becomes too
short for practical use. Do not dispose of the exhausted
battery.
12. Using an exhausted battery will damage the charger.
ADDITIONAL SAFETY WARNINGS
1. Setting up and checking the work environment
Check if the work environment is suitable by following
the precautions.
2. Ensure that the power switch is in the OFF position. If the
battery is attached to the body while the power switch
is in the ON position, the power tool will start operating
immediately, which could cause a serious accident.
3. Prepare a stable wooden workbench suitable for
planning operation. As a poorly balanced workbench
creates a hazard, ensure it is securely positioned on fi rm,
level ground.
4. Do not fi x and secure the switch lock. Besides, keep
your fi nger off the switch trigger when the planer is being
carried around. Otherwise, the main body switch can
be inadvertently turned ON, resulting in unexpected
accidents.
5. Do not give a strong shock to the switch panel or break it.
It may lead to a trouble.
6. To save the battery power consumption, the remaining
battery indicator lamp lights while pressing the remaining
battery indicator switch.
7. Precaution after fi nishing the planing operation
When the planer is suspended with one hand after
fi nishing the planing operation, ensure that the cutting
blades (base) of the planer do not contact or come too
near your body. Failure to do so could result in serious
injury.
8. The planing position can be regulated by moving the
guide to the left or right after loosening its set screw. The
guide may be mounted on either the right or left side of
the tool.
9. Do not use the Planer with the blades facing upward (as
stationary type planer).
10. Be careful not to injure your hand when attaching or
detaching blades.
11. Before attaching blades, wipe off any chips or other
debris adhering to the blades.
