SPECIFIC SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE PLANER _Continued
5. DRESS FOR SAFETY:
Plan ahead to protect your eyes, hands, face and
ears.
Do not wear loose clothing, gloves, neckties or
jewellery (rings, wrist watches). They can get
caught and draw you into moving parts.
Wear nonslip footwear.
Tie back long hair.
Roll long sleeves above the elbow.
Noise levels vary widely. To avoid possible
hearing damage, wear ear plugs or muffs when
using the planer for hours at a time.
Planer can throw foreign objects into your eyes.
This can result in permanent eye damage. Wear
safety goggles (not glasses) that comply with
CSA Standards. Regular eyeglasses have only
impact-resistant lenses. They are not safety
glasses.
For dusty operations, wear a dust mask along
with safety goggles.
6. INSPECT YOUR WORKPIECE:
Make sure there are no nails or foreign objects in
the part of the workpiece to be planed.
7. PLAN YOUR CUT:
Small or thin workpieces can kickback when they
tip over on the tables or the cutterhead.
To avoid cutterhead contact or workpiece
kickback, do not plane workpieces shorter than
14" (35.6 cm).
Do not plane wood thinner than 1/2" (13 mm).
Do not cut freehand. Guide your workpiece
solidly against the fence and table top. Make sure
there in no debris between the workpiece and its
supports.
Use extra caution with large, small or awkward
workpieces.
Use extra support (tables, sawhorses, blocks) if
your workpiece is hard to hold down to the table.
Do not use another person as additional support
or to help feed, support or pull the workpiece.
Do not cut more than one workpiece at a time.
Do not turn your planer ON before clearing
everything except the workpiece and related
support devices off the table.
8. AVOID ACCIDENTAL STARTING:
Make sure the switch is OFF before plugging the
planer into a power source.

WHEN THE PLANER IS RUNNING
WARNING
DO NOT ALLOW FAMILIARITY (GAINED FROM
FREQUENT USE OF YOUR PLANER) TO CAUSE A
CARELESS MISTAKE. REMEMBER THAT A CARELESS
FRACTION OF A SECOND IS ENOUGH TO CAUSE A
SEVERE INJURY.
1. KEEP CHILDREN AWAY:
Make sure bystanders are clear of the planer.
Before actually cutting with the planer, let it run
for a while. If it makes an unfamiliar noise or
vibrates, stop immediately. Turn the planer OFF.
Unplug the planer. Do not restart it until finding
and correcting the problem.
2. DO NOT FORCE THE TOOL:
Feed the workpiece into the planer only fast
enough to let the tool cut without bogging down
or jamming.
3. BEFORE FREEING JAMMED MATERIAL:
Turn the switch OFF.
Wait for all moving parts to stop.
Unplug the planer.
4. BEFORE LEAVING THE PLANER:
Turn the planer OFF.
Unplug the planer.
Make the workshop childproof. Lock the shop.
