OPERATION
WARNING:
Always clamp the workpiece securely before making
a cut. Work moving during a cut could result in loss of
control of the planer and cause serious injury.
OPERATING THE PLANER
See Figure 9.
Clamp the work securely.
Support the work so that the operation is on your right.
Adjust the planing depth.
Hold the planer with both hands. Hold the front handle
with your left hand and the rear handle with your right
hand.
WARNING:
Always use two hands on the tool for any operation. This
assures that you maintain control and avoid risk of serious
personal injury. Always properly support and clamp the
work so that both hands are free to control the planer.
Place the front shoe on the edge of work to be planed.
NOTE: Make sure the blades are not touching the
work.
Apply pressure to the front handle so that the front shoe
is completely flat on the work.
Start the planer and let the motor reach maximum
speed.
Hold the planer firmly and push it forward into the work,
using a slow, steady motion.
Apply downward pressure toward the rear handle as you
reach the end of the planed cut. This helps keep the rear
section of the planer base in contact with the work and
prevents the front of the planer from gouging the cut.
WARNING:
Be careful to avoid hitting nails or any other foreign
objects during planing operation; this action could nick,
crack, or damage blades.
NOTE: We suggest that you always keep an extra set of
blades on hand. If the blades in the planer show signs of
becoming dull, chipped, or damaged in any way, replace
them. The blades are reversible and can be reversed until
both sides become dull. Reverse or change the blades
only as a set, never individually.
Plane slowly and empty the dust bag often.
NOTE: Using a battery in a low charge condition will cause
chip build-up and clogging of the chip exhaust. This will
also affect the quality of the cut. Keep a freshly charged
battery available and replace the discharged battery when
you notice a decrease in performance.
CAUTION:
Planing too fast results in a poor finish and increases chip
build-up in the chip exhaust. Chip build-up restricts air
flow and can cause motor overheating.
WARNING:
Do not attempt to clear a blocked chip exhaust until the
blades stop and you have removed the battery. Failure to
heed this warning can result in serious personal injury.
