all bolts are firmly tightened before connecting unit
to power source.
9 . Avoid awkward operations and hand positions. A
sudden slip could cause a hand to move into the knives.
10 . Keep arms, hands, and fingers away from the
cutterhead, the chip exhaust opening, and the feed
rollers to prevent severe cuts.
11 . Never reach into the cutterhead area while the
machine is running. Your hands can be drawn into
the knives.
12 . Do not stand in line with the workpiece. Kickback can
cause injury.
13 . Allow the cutterhead to reach full speed before
feeding a workpiece. Changing speeds while planing
can cause kickback.
14 . When planing bowed stock, place the concave (cup
down) side of the stock on the table and cut with the
grain to prevent kickback.
15 . Do not feed a workpiece that is warped, contains
knots, or is embedded with foreign objects (nails,
staples, etc.). Kickback can occur.
16 . Do not feed a short, thin, or narrow workpiece into
the machine. Your hands can be drawn into the
knives and/or the workpiece can be thrown at high
speeds. See the Operation section of this instruction
manual for details.
17 . Do not feed a workpiece into the outfeed end of
the machine. The workpiece will be thrown out of the
opposite side at high speeds.
18 . Remove shavings only with the power "OFF" and the
cutterhead stopped to prevent serious injury.
19 . Properly support long or wide work pieces. Loss of
control of the workpiece can cause serious injury.
20 . Never perform layout, assembly or set-up work on
the table/work area when the machine is running.
Serious injury will result.
21 . Turn the machine "OFF", disconnect it from the
power source, and clean the table/work area before
leaving the machine. Lock the switch in the "OFF"
position to prevent unauthorized use. Someone else
might accidentally start the machine and cause injury to
themselves or others.

proper operation of power tools (i.e. a safety
video) is available from the Power Tool Institute,

available from the National Safety Council, 1121 Spring
Lake Drive, Itasca, IL 60143-3201. Please refer to the
American National Standards Institute ANSI 01.1 Safety
Requirements for Woodworking Machines and the U.S.
Department of Labor Regulations.
Supplemental Safety Rules for Planers
•
To avoid injury, never rotate the cutterhead directly with
your hands.
•
Keep hands away from the underside of the
cutterhead carriage.
•
Never clear clogs, make cutter knife replacement, or any
other repairs/adjustments with unit plugged in.
•
Make certain that the switch is in the "OFF" position
before connecting plug to a power source.
•
Stay alert—never operate the unit when tired or under the
influence of drugs, alcohol, or medication.
•
Do not use in dangerous environments. Do not use near
flammable substances, in damp or wet locations, or
expose to rain.
•
Never plane material which is shorter than 12" (304.8 mm)
narrower than 3/4" (19.05 mm), or wider than 12"
(304.8 mm) or thinner than 1/2" (12.7 mm).
•
Exhaust chute: remove shavings with brush or vacuum
after power has been shut off and cutterhead has
stopped rotating.
•
Always locate planer with proper clearance on the outfeed
side of the unit to prevent pinching or binding of the
workpiece against any obstacle.
•
Maintain the proper relationships of infeed and outfeed
table surfaces and cutterhead knife path.
•
Lock the speed setting securely before feeding the
workpiece through the machine. Changing speeds while
planing can cause kickback.
Additional Safety Information
WARNING: Never modify the power tool or any part
of it. Damage or personal injury could result.
WARNING: ALWAYS use safety glasses. Everyday
eyeglasses are NOT safety glasses. Also use face or
dust mask if cutting operation is dusty. ALWAYS WEAR
CERTIFIED SAFETY EQUIPMENT:
•
ANSI Z87.1 eye protection (CAN/CSA Z94.3),
•
ANSI S12.6 (S3.19) hearing protection,
•
NIOSH/OSHA/MSHA respiratory protection.
WARNING: Some dust created by power sanding,
sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction
activities contains chemicals known to the State
of California to cause cancer, birth defects or
other reproductive harm. Some examples of these
chemicals are:
•
lead from lead-based paints,
•
crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other
masonry products, and
•
arsenic and chromium from chemically-
treated lumber.
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how
often you do this type of work. To reduce your exposure to
these chemicals: work in a well ventilated area, and work with
approved safety equipment, such as those dust masks that are
specially designed to filter out microscopic particles.
