Cutting Tool Safety
WARNING: Before connecting a tool to a power source (mains
switch power point receptacle, outlet, etc.) be sure that the voltage
supply is the same as that specified on the nameplate of the tool. A
power source with a voltage greater than that specified for the tool
can result in serious injury to the user, and damage to the tool. If in
doubt, do not plug in the tool. Using a power source with a voltage
less than the nameplate rating is harmful to the motor.
Use the correct cutting tool
• Ensure the cutting tool is suitable for the job. Do not assume a
tool is suitable without checking the product literature before
use
Protect your eyes
• Always wear appropriate eye protection when using cutting tools
• Spectacles are not designed to offer any protection when using
this product; normal lenses are not impact resistant and could
shatter
Protect your hearing
• Always wear suitable hearing protection when tool noise exceeds
85dB
Protect your breathing
• Ensure that yourself, and others around you, wear suitable dust
masks
Protect your hands
• Do not allow hands to get close to the cutting wheel or blades.
Use a suitable push stick for shorter workpieces with appropriate
power tools
Be aware of others around you
• It is the responsibility of the user to ensure that other people in
the vicinity of the work area are not exposed to dangerous noise
or dust and are also provided with suitable protective equipment
Hidden objects
• Inspect the workpiece and remove all nails and other embedded
objects before cutting
• Do not attempt to cut material that contains embedded objects
unless you know that the cutting tool fitted to your machine is
suitable for the job
• Walls may conceal wiring and piping, car body panels may
conceal fuel lines, and long grass may conceal stones and glass.
Always check the work area thoroughly before proceeding
Beware of projected waste
• In some situations, waste material may be projected at speed
from the cutting tool. It is the user's responsibility to ensure that
other people in the work area are protected from the possibility
of projected waste
Fitting cutting tools
• Ensure cutting tools are correctly and securely fitted and check
that wrenches / adjusters are removed prior to use
• Only use cutting tools recommended for your machine
• Do not attempt to modify cutting tools
• Ensure blades are sharp, in good condition and correctly fitted
• Do not attempt to re-sharpen blades. Hardened blades or blades
made from hardened alloys typically containing tungsten cannot
be re-sharpened without professional equipment
• Only fit blades specifically designed and intended for this tool
• In the event blades encounter an embedded object in use
that the blades are not suitable for, blades should be replaced
immediately
Direction of feed
• Always feed work into the blade or cutter against the direction of
movement of the blade or cutter
Beware of heat
• Cutting tools and workpieces may become hot in use. Do not
attempt to change tools until they have been allowed to cool
completely
Control dust / swarf
• Do not allow dust or swarf to build up. Sawdust is a fire hazard,
and some metal swarf is explosive
• Be especially careful when cutting wood and metal. Sparks from
metal cutting are a common cause of wood dust fires
• Where possible, use a dust extraction system to ensure a safer
working environment
Thicknesser Safety
WARNING: Never use the tool without the appropriate guard in
place or correctly adjusted.
WARNING: Any portion of the cutter block not being used for
planing shall be guarded.
WARNING: When planing narrow workpieces, additional
measures such as the use of horizontal pressure devices, may be
necessary to ensure safe working.
WARNING: Planing tools should not be used to cut rebate,
recess, tenon or mould.
• Use appropriate respiratory protection. Use of this tool can
generate dust containing chemicals known to cause cancer,
birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some wood contains
preservatives such as copper chromium arsenate (CCA) which
can be toxic. When sanding, drilling, or cutting these materials
extra care should be taken to avoid inhalation and minimise skin
contact.
• Use only sharp blades. Handle the blades very carefully with
cut-proof gloves.
WARNING: Do not use knives that are blunt as this increases the
danger of kickback.
• Ensure all cloth, cord, rags, string and similar items are
removed from the work area. To prevent entanglement in the
planer mechanism.
• Allow the tool to reach full speed before making contact
with the workpiece and starting cutting.
• ALWAYS switch 'OFF; and allow the blades to come to a
complete standstill before attempting any adjustments,
cleaning or carrying out maintenance.
• Replace all blades at the same time, otherwise the resulting
imbalance will cause vibration and shorten the service life of
planer and blades.
