HEALTH ADVICE
WARNING! When drilling, sanding, sawing or grinding, dust particles will be
produced. In some instances, depending on the materials you are working with,
this dust can be particularly harmful to you (e.g. lead from old gloss paint).
You are advised to consider the risks associated with the materials you are working
with and to reduce the risk of exposure. You should:
- Work in a well-ventilated area.
- Work with approved safety equipment, such as those dust masks that are specially
designed to filter microscopic particles.
ADDITIONAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR YOUR TOOLS
- Always wear eye protection when operating any machine.
- Before starting up, check to make sure all holding screws are tight.
- Always stop motor and disconnect from power source before making any adjustments.
- Be sure all guards are in place before operating equipment.
- Read operator’s manual thoroughly and familiarize yourself with machine before
attempting to operate.
- Do not force work through the machine. Allow the planer to apply the proper feed
rate.
- Check feed rollers occasionally to be sure chips and sawdust are not lodged between
any components. If rollers are not seated firmly, the feed rolls will not hold stock firmly
against the bed, allowing kickback.
- Only plane wood boards.
- Use sound timber, with no loose knots and as few tight knots as possible.
- Never stand directly in line with either the infeed or outfeed sides. Always stand off
to one side of the machine.
- Make sure the workpiece is free of from nails, screws stones and other foreign objects
which could damage the blades.
- Make sure the blades are attached correctly as described in the instructions.
- Use caution when handling the blades and cutterhead assembly. The blades are sharp
and can easily cut your hand.
- Allow the cutterhead to reach full speed before using.
- Never use machine without correctly mounted and adjusted protective covers.
- Never use blunt planing irons as this increases risk of kickback.
- The parts of the cutting steel not in use should be covered.
- When planing shorter pieces a pusher should be used.
- When planing narrow pieces further precautions need to be taken to insure safe work,
such as appliances for pushing the work piece from above and spring loaded
protection.
- Planes may not be used for folding, milling, making marks or pegs.
