RULES FOR SAFE OPERATION

The purpose of safety rules is to attract your attention to possible dangers. The safety symbols and the explanations with them, require your careful attention and understanding.

The safety warnings by themselves do not elimimate any danger. The instruction or warnings they give are not substitutes for proper accident prevention measures.

SAFETY ALERT SYMBOL. Indicates caution or warning. May be used in conjunction with other symbols or pictures.

WARNING: Failure to obey a safety warning can result in serious injury to yourself or to others. Always follow the safety precautions to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock and personal injury.

DOUBLE INSULATION

Double insulation is a concept in safety in electric power tools, which eliminates the need for earth grounding. Whenever there is electric current in the tool there are two complete sets of insulation to protect the user. All exposed metal parts are isolated from the internal metal motor components with protecting insulation.

WARNING: The double insulated system is intended to protect the user from shock resulting from a break in the tool's internal wiring. Observe all normal safety precautions related to avoiding electrical shock.

IMPORTANT: Servicing of a tool with double insulation requires extreme care and knowledge of the system and should be performed only by a qualified service technician. For service we suggest you return the tool to your nearest Ryobi Authorised Service Centre for repair. When servicing, use only identical Ryobi replacement parts.

WARNING: Do not attempt to operate this tool until you have read thoroughly and completely understood the safety rules, etc. contained in this manual. Failure to comply can result in accidents involving fire, electric shock or serious personal injury.

The operation of any tool can result in foreign objects being thrown into your eyes, which can result in severe eye damage. Before beginning power tool operation, always wear safety

goggles or safety glasses with side shields and a full face shield when needed. We recommend Wide Vision Safety Mask for use over

Always wear eye protection when operating the machine.

Check to make sure all holding screws are tight before starting machine.

Always stop the motor and disconnect from power source before making any adjustments.

Be sure all guards are in place before operation.

Read owner’s manual thoroughly and familiarise yourself with the machine before operation.

Do not force work through the machine. Allow the planer to apply the proper feed rate.

Check feed rollers occasionally to be sure sawdust and chips are not lodged between any components. If rollers are not seated firmly, the feed rolls will not hold timber 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.

RULES FOR SAFE OPERATION

Anti-Kickback Pawls

Device which, when properly installed and maintained, is designed to stop the workpiece from being kicked back toward the front of the Blade during a Planer operation.

Avoiding kickback

Always use the correct Blade depth setting.

Inspect the work for knots or nails before beginning a cut. Knock out any loose knots with a hammer, never cut into a loose knot or nail.

Always use clear, sharp, and properly-set blades.

Never make planer with dull blades.

To avoid pinching the Blade, support the work properly before beginning a planer operation.

When making a planer operation, use steady, even pressure, never force to plane.

Do not plane wet or warped timber.

Always hold your workpiece firmly with both hands, keep your body in a balanced position to be ready to resist kickback. Never stand directly in line with timber.
