a connection from one terminal to
another. Shorting the battery terminals
together may cause burns or a fire.
d. Under abusive conditions, liquid may be
ejected from the battery, avoid contact.
If contact accidentally occurs, flush with
water.
If

unpredictable behaviour resulting in fire,
explosion or risk of injury.
f.
Do not expose a battery pack or tool to
fire or excessive temperature. Exposure
to fire or temperature above 265 °F may
cause explosion.
a. 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.
b. 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.
c. Secure the material being planed. Never
hold it in your hand or across legs.
Small workpiece must be adequately
secured so that the rotating planer blades
will not pick it up during forward motion
of the planer. Unstable support can
cause the blades to bind causing loss of
control and injury.
d. Always start the planer before blade is
in contact with the workpiece and allow
the blade to come to full speed. Tool
can vibrate or chatter if blade speed is
too slow at beginning of cut and possibly
kickback.
e. Check the workpiece for nails, if there
are nails, either remove or set them well
below intended finished surface. If the
planer blades strike objects like nails it
may cause the tool to kickback and
serious personal injury may result.

Safety Rules for Cordless Planers
g. Follow all charging instructions and do
not charge the battery pack or tool
outside the temperature range specified
in the instructions. Charging improperly
or at temperatures outside the specified
range may damage the battery and
increase the risk of fire.
6. Service
a. Have your power tool serviced by a
qualified 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.
f.
Disconnect battery pack from tool
before
making
adjustments or changing accessories.
Such preventive safety measures reduce
the risk of starting the tool accidentally.
g. After changing blades, rotate the blade
cylinder (cutter drum) to make sure
blades are not hitting any part of the
blade head housing and the blade
locking screws are tight. Spinning
blades could strike tool housing and
damage tool as well as possible injury.
h. Always hold the tool firmly with both
hands. This provides maximum control
for the operator.
i.
Never pull the planer backward over the
workpiece. Loss of control may occur.
j.
Do not put fingers or any objects into
the shavings exhaust port or clean out
shavings while tool is running. Contact
with blade drum will cause injury.
k
Disconnect battery pack from tool if it
becomes necessary to remove shavings.
The blades are hidden from view and you
may be cut if blade is contacted.
