WARNING: If not properly grounded, this tool can
cause an electrical shock, particularly when used
in damp locations, in proximity to plumbing, or out
of doors. If an electrical shock occurs there is the
potential of a secondary hazard, such as your
hands contacting the knives.
The unit is wired for 220V-240V and has a plug that looks
like this:
Motor Safety Protection
IMPORTANT: To reduce the risk of motor damage, this
motor should be blown out or vacuumed periodically to keep
sawdust from interfering with normal motor ventilation.
1. Connect this tool to a power source with the appropri-
ate voltage for your model and a 10-amp branch circuit
with a 10-amp time delay fuse or circuit breaker. Using
the wrong size fuse can damage the motor.
2. If the motor won't start, turn off the power switch imme-
diately and unplug the tool. Check the cutter head to
make sure it turns freely. If the head is free, try to start
the motor again. If the motor still does not start, refer to
the "Troubleshooting Chart."
3. Fuses may "blow" or circuit breakers may trip fre-
quently if:
a. Motor Is Overloaded-Overloading can occur if you
feed too rapidly or make too many start/stops in a
short time.
Thermal Overload Protector
This planer is equipped with a thermal overload protector
device which will automatically "trip" and cause the
planer to shut down if the planer is overheating due to
continuous heavy cutting.
The planer overload protector can only be reset manually
by the user after the planer had been allowed to ade-
quately cool. Allow 15-30 minutes.
Should the overload protector "trip":
1. Turn switch off.
2. Raise carriage and remove board.
3. Wait 15-30 minutes.
4. Push in on the reset button.
5. If motor has cooled, button will remain in.
Wire Sizes
NOTE: Make sure a proper extension cord is used and it
is in good condition.
The use of any extension cord will cause some loss of
power. To keep this to a minimum and to prevent over-
heating and motor burn-out, use the table below to deter-
mine the minimum wire size (A.W.G.) extension cord.
Use only 3-wire extension cords which have 3-prong

b. Line voltages should not be more than 10% above
or below the nameplate voltage. For heavy loads,
however, the voltage at motor terminals must equal
the voltage specified for your model.
c. Improper or dull cutter knives are used.
NOTE: Do not continuously use the thickness planer set
at maximum depth of cut 3 mm (1/8"), and at full 33 cm
(13") width of cut. Continuous use at maximum cutting
capacity will damage your motor.
4. Most motor troubles may be traced to loose or incor-
rect connections, overload, low voltage (such as small
size wire in the supply circuit) or to overly long supply
circuit wire. Always check the connections, the load
and the supply circuit whenever motor doesn't work
well. Check wire sizes and length with the Wire Size
Chart.
