General power tool safety warnings
WARNING:
Read all safety warnings, instruc-
tions, illustrations and specifications provided
with this power tool. Failure to follow all instructions
listed below may result in electric shock, fire and/or
serious injury.
Save all warnings and instruc-
tions for future reference.
The term "power tool" in the warnings refers to your
mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated
(cordless) power tool.
Cordless Planer Safety Warnings
1.
Wait for the cutter to stop before setting the
tool down. An exposed rotating cutter may
engage the surface leading to possible loss of
control and serious injury.
Use clamps or another practical way to secure
2.
and support the workpiece to a stable plat-
form. Holding the workpiece by your hand or
against the body leaves it unstable and may lead
to loss of control.
3.
Rags, cloth, cord, string and the like should
never be left around the work area.
Avoid cutting nails. Inspect for and remove all
4.
nails from the workpiece before operation.
5.
Use only sharp blades. Handle the blades very
carefully.
6.
Be sure the blade installation bolts are
securely tightened before operation.
7.
Hold the tool firmly with both hands.
Keep hands away from rotating parts.
8.
9.
Before using the tool on an actual workpiece,
let it run for a while. Watch for vibration or
wobbling that could indicate poor installation
or a poorly balanced blade.
10. Make sure the blade is not contacting the
workpiece before the switch is turned on.
11.
Wait until the blade attains full speed before
cutting.
12. Always switch off and wait for the blades to
come to a complete stop before adjusting
depth of cut.
13. Never stick your finger into the chip chute.
Chute may jam when cutting damp wood.
Clean out chips with a stick.
14. Do not leave the tool running. Operate the tool
only when hand-held.
15. When replace the blades or some parts on the
drum, make sure to replace the parts on both
sides of the drum as a set. Otherwise, the result-
ing imbalance will cause vibration and shorten tool
life.
16. Use only Makita blades specified in this
manual.
17. Always use the correct dust mask/respirator
for the material and application you are work-
ing with.
18. Operate the tool on stable condition. Operation
on unstable condition may cause a damage injury.
