GENERAL SAFETY RULES
WARNING! Read all instructions Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury. The term "power tool" in all of the warnings listed below refers to your mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated (cordless) power tool.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
1. Work area
a. Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered and 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 tools plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power tool. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.
b. Avoid body contact with earthed or 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.
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 safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Safety equipment such as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.
c. Avoid accidental starting. Ensure the switch is in the off-position before plugging in. Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or plugging in 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 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 these devices can reduce dust-related hazards.
4. Power tool use and cars
a. Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your application. The correct power tool will so 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 tools 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 and in the manner intended for the particular type of power tool, 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. 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.
Additional safety rules for electric planers
- Wait for the cutter to stop before setting the tool down. An exposed cutter may engage the surface leading to possible loss of control and serious injury.
- Fully unwind cable drum extensions to avoid potential overheating.
- When an extension cable is required, you must ensure that it has the right ampere rating for your power tool and is in safe electrical condition.
- Ensure your mains supply voltage is the same as your tool rating plate voltage.
• After long working periods, external metal parts and accessories could be hot.
- If possible, always use clamps or a vice to hold your work.
• Always switch off before you put the planer down.
- Do not force the planer: let the tool do the work at a reasonable speed. Overloading will occur if too much pressure is applied and the motor slows resulting in inefficient planing and possible damage to the planer motor.
• Always use a dust extraction system where possible.
- Rags, cloths, cord, string and the like should never be left around the work area.
- Remove all nails, screws and other objects from the workpiece. You can damage the blade and the tool by cutting into a nail or other foreign object. It can also present a safety hazard.
- Handle the blades very carefully.
- Be sure that the blade installation bolts are securely tightened before operation.
• Always wear eye and ear protection and use a dust mask.
- Hold the tool firmly with both hands.
- Keep hands away from rotating parts.
- Before using the tool on an actual workpiece, switch on and let it run for a while. Watch for vibration or wobbling that could indicate poor installation or a poorly balanced blade.
- Make sure that a blade is not in contact with the workpiece when you switch the machine on.
- Wait until the blades attain full speed before cutting.
- Operate the tool at least 200mm away from your face and body.
- Always switch off and wait until the blades have come to a complete standstill before attempting any adjustments.
- Never stick your finger into the chip chute. Shavings may jam in the chute when cutting damp wood. Clean out the chips with a stick but only when the tool has been turned off and unplugged from the power socket.
- Do not leave the machine running unattended. Operate the tool only when controlled by both hands.
- When leaving the planer, switch off and set it with the front base up on a wooden block so that the blades are not in contact with anything.
- Always change the two blades at the same time, otherwise the resulting imbalance will cause vibration and shorten the blade and tool life.
- Recommendation for the use of a residual current device with a rated residual current of 30 mA or less.
WARNING. Before connecting a tool to a power source (mains socket 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, as well as 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. The tool must be used only for its prescribed purpose.
