Safety instructions
Avoid disorder in the working area.
Disorder in the working area always means an increased
risk of accidents. Remember to clean wood shavings
- 10 -
from the workplace every now and then even during op-
eration.
Fix the unit on a firm foundation so that it is level and
secure.
Make sure in all cases that the unit cannot fall or topple,
especially during operation. Holes, which can be used to
bolt the planer to the foundations, are provided in the feet
for this purpose.
Check the unit for damage before every use.
Please check the planing machine each time before us-
ing, particularly the cutting tools, the safety devices and
the connecting cable and plug. Please note: Defective
parts, especially damaged safety devices, may only be
changed by a specialist or by the PROXXON Customer
Service Department.
Use only original PROXXON spare parts.
Never interfere with the planing machine.
Do not change anything on the machine and do not car-
ry out any modifications. This could be detrimental to me-
chanical and electrical safety; in particular, there is a risk
of electric shock and your safety could be further preju-
diced. This can result in injury and material damage.
Never work without the safety equipment provided.
Make sure that all the housing covers of the planer are
closed during operation in all cases and that the kickback
protection device is working properly. After actuation, the
kickback fingers must drop back into their starting posi-
tion of their own accord, the edges of the points must be
sharp and the fingers must not be deformed.
Pay attention to the surrounding conditions.
Use the planer only in dry environments and never in the
vicinity of combustible liquids or gases.
Make sure that there is adequate lighting.
Use a dust mask and only use the planing machine in
well ventilated rooms.
The dust from some of the types of wood to be machined
could be damaging to health if inhaled. Therefore take the
necessary precautions and wear a dust mask.
Use protective goggles.
Inspect the workplace carefully before planing.
Check the workpiece that you want to plane for possible
inclusions such as nails, screws, stones etc and remove
these.
Metal parts in particular that are embedded in the work
piece can damage the shafts and knives in your thick-
nesser and render it useless. The work piece might pos-
sibly splinter, Caution: Risk of injury! The slide face on the
planing table can become scratched and thus lead to im-
paired function.
