Safety

General Power Tool Safety Warnings

WARNING Read all safety warnings and all instructions. Failure to follow the warnings and instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.

Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.

The term "power tool" in the warnings refers to your mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated (cordless) power tool.

1) Work area safety

a) Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
b) Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
c) Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.

2) Electrical safety

a) Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.
b) Avoid body contact with grounded surfaces, such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded.
c) Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.
d) Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock.

e) When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.
f) If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a residual current device (RCD) protected supply. Use of an RCD reduces the risk of electric shock.

3) Personal safety

a) Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not use a power tool while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.
b) Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection. Protective equipment such as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.
c) Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off-position before connecting to power source and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool. Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or energising power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.
d) Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury.
e) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.
f) Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
g) If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used. Use of dust collection can reduce dust-related hazards.

4) Power tool use and care

a) Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your application. The correct power tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed.
b) Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and off. Any power tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
c) Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or the battery pack from the power tool before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.
d) Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power tool or these instructions to operate the power tool. Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.

e) Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other condition that may affect the power tool's operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired before use.
Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools.
f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
g) Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. in accordance with these instructions, taking into account the working conditions and the work to be performed. Use of the power tool for operations different from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.

5) Service

a) Repairs and service should only be performed by qualified persons, and only with original spare parts. This guarantees the safety of the electrical hand tool.

Specific Safety Requirements for Planers

• 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.
• Hold the power tool by insulated gripping surfaces only, because the cutter may contact its own cord. Cutting a "live" wire may make exposed metal parts of the powertool "live" and could give the operator an electric shock.
• Use clamps or another practical way to secure and support the workpiece to a stable platform. Holding the work by your hand or against the body leaves it unstable and may lead to loss of control.
• Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces, because the belt may contact its own cord. Cutting a "live" wire may make exposed metal parts of the power tool "live" and could give the operator an electric shock.

Operating instructions

Warning:

• Always unplug the planer before adjusting the cutting depth or cutting width.
- Make sure that the workpiece is securely fastened to the work bench and that the work bench is stable and won't move.

- Lower the parking rest on the rear of the planer when you stop work. It protects the blade when it is not in use.

Planing a flat surface

Turn the planing depth adjuster (8) to the desired depth. Plug the planer into the wall socket. Hold in the trigger lock button (5) and then pull the power trigger (6).

Warning: Never adjust the planing depth while planing; doing so will result in an uneven depth of cut. Always return the planing depth to 0 when you have finished work to avoid an incorrect setting when beginning your next planing task.

Rebating

Attach the parallel guide (15) as shown in the figure above and fasten it using the locking knob (9).

Adjusting the rebating depth

Set the rebating depth guide (3) to the desired depth and lock it using the locking lever (4).

Adjusting the cutting depth

Turn the planing depth adjuster (8) to the desired setting.

Warning: Never adjust the planing depth while planing; doing so will result in an uneven depth of cut. Always return the planing depth to 0 when you have finished work to avoid an incorrect setting when beginning your next planing task.

Adjusting the rebating width

The rebating width is adjusted using the parallel guide. Loosen the wing nut (15a), set the parallel guide to the desired position and then tighten the wing nut again.

Chamfering

The V-grooves on the bottom of the soleplate makes it possible to chamfer the edges of the workpiece.

Work procedure

In order to achieve a smooth, even surface on the workpiece it is best to begin with a coarse/deeper cut and then reduce the cutting depth and finish with a finer cut. Hold the planer firmly and feed it slowly and steadily over the workpiece. Switch off and unplug the planer as soon as you have finished work.

Small workpieces

Make sure that small workpieces are firmly clamped or held in a vice.

Care and maintenance

• Always unplug the mains lead from the wall socket before any servicing or cleaning.
- Wipe the planer clean with a dry cloth and vacuum clean if necessary.
- Check that the holes in the motor housing ventilation (2) are free from dust and debris.
- Unplug the planer and store it in a dry environment out of children's reach whenever it is not in use.

Changing blades

Warning: Always unplug the mains lead from the wall socket before any servicing or maintenance.

• When the planer blades have been used for a while they might be too blunt to produce a clean cut and smooth finish. Continued use of blunt or worn blades will result in a poor surface finish and could overload the motor. The blades should therefore be checked regularly and turned over or replaced if necessary.
• The tungsten carbide tipped blades are double-edged and can be turned over and the other edge used once one of the edges is worn.
• The tool for changing or adjusting the blades is kept in the blade tool holder (12).
• The cutting depth of the blade seldom needs to be adjusted. Do not undo the set screws (20) until you are certain that the cutting depth needs adjusting.
