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) 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 Instructions for 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

• Use clamps or another practical way to secure and support the workpiece to a stable platform. Holding the work by hand or against your body leaves it unstable and may lead to loss of control.

• Be sure the voltage agrees with specific data on the nameplate.

• Make certain that the switch is in the off position before connecting plug to a power source.

• Be sure to switch OFF immediately if tool is jammed in work.

• Be sure tool is set for correct depth before turning switch to ON.

• Be sure to maintain tool with care. Follow instructions for lubricating and changing accessories.

• Stay alert – never operate the unit when tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or medication.

• Be sure to store tool in a clean dry place after disconnecting from power source.

• Do not use in dangerous environments. Do not use near flammable substances, in damp or wet locations, or expose to rain.

• Be sure that the blades are mounted as described in the instruction manual and check that all screws are firmly tightened before connecting unit to power source.

• Keep air vents unobstructed for proper motor cooling.

• DO NOT lay tool down on shoe when the blades are exposed. This can chip the blades.

• Keep side discharge chute unobstructed at all times.

• Never reach under the tool for any reason unless it is turned off and UNPLUGGED. BLADES ARE EXPOSED AND EX TREMELY SHARP.

• Use this tool for working with wood and wood products only.

• Never operate without securely holding the front handle.

• Always operate planer with two hands.

• Planer blades are extremely sharp. Handle with great care.

• Clean out your tool often, especially after heavy use.

• Air vents often cover moving parts and should be avoided. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can be caught in moving parts.

• An extension cord must have adequate wire size (AWG or American Wire Gauge) for safety. The smaller the gauge number of the wire, the greater the capacity of the cable, that is 16 gauge has more capacity than 18 gauge. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating. When using more than one extension to make up the total length, be sure each individual extension contains at least the minimum wire size. The following table shows the correct size to use depending on cord length and nameplate ampere rating. If in doubt, use the next heavier gauge. The smaller the gauge number, the heavier the cord.

WARNING: ALWAYS use safety glasses. Everyday eyeglasses are NOT safety glasses. Also

use face or dust mask if cutting operation is dusty. ALWAYS WEAR CERTIFIED SAFETY EQUIPMENT:

• ANSI Z87.1 eye protection (CAN/CSA Z94.3),

• ANSI S12.6 (S3.19) hearing protection,

• NIOSH/OSHA/MSHA respiratory protection.

WARNING: Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other

construction activities contains chemicals known to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some examples of these chemicals are:

• lead from lead-based paints,

• crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products, and

• arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated lumber (CCA).

Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you do this type of work. To reduce your exposure to these chemicals: work in a well ventilated area, and work with approved safety equipment, such as those dust masks that are specially designed to filter out microscopic particles.

• Avoid prolonged contact with dust from power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and

other construction activities. Wear protective clothing and wash exposed areas with soap and water. Allowing dust to get into your mouth, eyes, or lay on the skin may promote

absorption of harmful chemicals.

WARNING: Use of this tool can generate and/or disburse dust, which may cause serious and

permanent respiratory or other injury. Always use NIOSH/OSHA approved respiratory protection appropriate for the dust exposure. Direct particles away from face and body.

WARNING: Always wear proper personal hearing protection that conforms to ANSI

S12.6 (S3.19) during use. Under some conditions and duration of use, noise from this product

may contribute to hearing loss.

To turn the tool off from a locked-on position, squeeze and release the trigger once.

Adjusting the Planing Depth (Fig. 1)

To adjust the depth of cut, turn the planing depth adjustment knob (J). Each click is equal to

0.1 mm of depth up to the maximum depth of cut of approximately 1/16" (1.6 mm). It is recom mended that test cuts be made in scrap wood after each re-adjustment to make sure

that the desired amount of wood is being removed by the planer. Several shallow passes (rather than one deep one) will produce a smoother finish.

Planing (Fig. 1–4)

CAUTION: Allow the tool to reach full speed before touching tool to the work surface. Lift the

tool from the work surface before turning the tool off.

Hold the planer in the correct position with one hand on the front handle (J) and the other hand on the main handle (C) as shown in Figure 2. Place the front shoe (G) on the surface to be planed, making certain that the cutting blades are not touching the surface. Push down firmly on the front handle of the planer so that the front shoe is ABSOLUTELY FLAT on the work surface. Squeeze the trigger switch and allow the motor to reach full speed before touching the planer blades to the work surface.

Move the tool slowly into the work and maintain downward pressure to keep the planer flat. Be particularly careful to keep the tool flat at the beginning and the end of the work surface.

Planing Tip: For a smoother appearance, fasten a piece of scrap wood to the end of the piece you are planing. Don’t stop planing until the cutting blades of the planer are past your workpiece and into the scrap material.

Rabbet Fence (Fig. 5, 6)

WARNING: Allow the tool to reach full speed before touching tool to the work surface. Lift the

tool from the work surface before turning the tool off.

Avertissements de sécurité généraux pour les outils électriques

AVERTISSEMENT! Lire tous les avertissements de sécurité et les directives. Le non-respect des avertissements et des directives pourrait se solder par un choc électrique, un incendie et/ou une blessure grave.

CONSERVER TOUS LES AVERTISSEMENTS ET TOUTES

LES DIRECTIVES POUR UN USAGE ULTÉRIEUR

Le terme « outil électrique » cité dans les avertissements se rapporte à votre outil électrique à alimentation sur secteur (avec fil) ou par piles (sans fil).

1) SÉCURITÉ DU LIEU DE TRAVAIL

a) Tenir l’aire de travail propre et bien éclairée. Les lieux encombrés ou sombres sont

propices aux accidents.

b) Ne pas faire fonctionner d’outils électriques dans un milieu déflagrant, tel qu’en

présence de liquides, de gaz ou de poussières inflammables. Les outils électriques

produisent des étincelles qui pourraient enflammer la poussière ou les vapeurs.

c) Éloigner les enfants et les personnes à proximité pendant l’utilisation d’un outil

électrique. Une distraction pourrait en faire perdre la maîtrise à l’utilisateur.

2) SÉCURITÉ EN MATIÈRE D’ÉLECTRICITÉ

a) Les fiches des outils électriques doivent correspondre à la prise. Ne jamais

modifier la fiche d’aucune façon. Ne jamais utiliser de fiche d’adaptation avec un outil électrique mis à la terre. Le risque de choc électrique sera réduit par l’utilisation de

fiches non modifiées correspondant à la prise.

b) Éviter tout contact physique avec des surfaces mises à la terre comme des tuyaux,

des radiateurs, des cuisinières et des réfrigérateurs. Le risque de choc électrique est

plus élevé si votre corps est mis à la terre.

c) Ne pas exposer les outils électriques à la pluie ou à l’humidité. La pénétration de l’eau

dans un outil électrique augmente le risque de choc électrique.

d) Ne pas utiliser le cordon de façon abusive. Ne jamais utiliser le cordon pour

transporter, tirer ou débrancher un outil électrique. Tenir le cordon éloigné de la chaleur, de l’huile, des bords tranchants et des pièces mobiles. Les cordons

endommagés ou enchevêtrés augmentent les risques de choc électrique.

e) Pour l’utilisation d’un outil électrique à l’extérieur, se servir d’une rallonge

convenant à cette application. L’utilisation d’une rallonge conçue pour l’extérieur réduira

les risques de choc électrique.

f) S’il est impossible d’éviter l’utilisation d’un outil électrique dans un endroit humide,

brancher l’outil dans une prise ou sur un circuit d’alimentation dotés d’un disjoncteur de fuite à la terre (GFCI). L’utilisation de ce type de disjoncteur réduit les risques de choc électrique.

3) SÉCURITÉ PERSONNELLE

a) Être vigilant, surveiller le travail effectué et faire preuve de jugement lorsqu’un outil

électrique est utilisé. Ne pas utiliser d’outil électrique en cas de fatigue ou sous l’influence de drogues, d’alcool ou de médicaments. Un simple moment d’inattention

en utilisant un outil électrique peut entraîner des blessures corporelles graves.

b) Utiliser des équipements de protection individuelle. Toujours porter une protection

oculaire. L’utilisation d’équipements de protection comme un masque antipoussière, des

chaussures antidérapantes, un casque de sécurité ou des protecteurs auditifs lorsque la situation le requiert réduira les risques de blessures corporelles.

c) Empêcher les démarrages intempestifs. S’assurer que l’interrupteur se trouve à la

position d’arrêt avant de relier l’outil à une source d’alimentation et/ou d’insérer un bloc-piles, de ramasser ou de transporter l’outil. Transporter un outil électrique alors

que le doigt repose sur l’interrupteur ou brancher un outil électrique dont l’interrupteur est à la position de marche risque de provoquer un accident.

d) Retirer toute clé de réglage ou clé avant de démarrer l’outil. Une clé ou une clé de

réglage attachée à une partie pivotante de l’outil électrique peut provoquer des blessures corporelles.

e) Ne pas trop tendre les bras. Conserver son équilibre en tout temps. Cela permet de

mieux maîtriser l’outil électrique dans les situations imprévues.

f) S’habiller de manière appropriée. Ne pas porter de vêtements amples ni de bijoux.

Garder les cheveux, les vêtements et les gants à l’écart des pièces mobiles. Les

vêtements amples, les bijoux ou les cheveux longs risquent de rester coincés dans les pièces mobiles.

g) Si des composants sont fournis pour le raccordement de dispositifs de dépoussiérage

et de ramassage, s’assurer que ceux-ci sont bien raccordés et utilisés. L’utilisation

d’un dispositif de dépoussiérage peut réduire les dangers engendrés par les poussières.

4) UTILISATION ET ENTRETIEN D’UN OUTIL ÉLECTRIQUE

a) Ne pas forcer un outil électrique. Utiliser l’outil électrique approprié à l’application.

L’outil électrique approprié effectuera un meilleur travail, de façon plus sûre et à la vitesse pour laquelle il a été conçu.

b) Ne pas utiliser un outil électrique dont l’interrupteur est défectueux. Tout outil

électrique dont l’interrupteur est défectueux est dangereux et doit être réparé.

c) Débrancher la fiche de la source d’alimentation et/ou du bloc-piles de l’outil

électrique avant de faire tout réglage ou changement d’accessoire ou avant de ranger l’outil. Ces mesures préventives réduisent les risques de démarrage accidentel

de l’outil électrique.

d) Ranger les outils électriques hors de la portée des enfants et ne permettre à

aucune personne n’étant pas familière avec un outil électrique ou son mode d’emploi d’utiliser cet outil. Les outils électriques deviennent dangereux entre les mains

d’utilisateurs inexpérimentés.

e) Entretien des outils électriques. Vérifier si les pièces mobiles sont mal alignées ou

coincées, si des pièces sont brisées ou présentent toute autre condition susceptible de nuire au bon fonctionnement de l’outil électrique. En cas de dommage, faire réparer l’outil électrique avant toute nouvelle utilisation. Beaucoup d’accidents sont

causés par des outils électriques mal entretenus.

f) S’assurer que les outils de coupe sont aiguisés et propres. Les outils de coupe

bien entretenus et affûtés sont moins susceptibles de se coincer et sont plus faciles à maîtriser.

g) Utiliser l’outil électrique, les accessoires, les forets, etc. conformément aux

présentes directives en tenant compte des conditions de travail et du travail à effectuer. L’utilisation d’un outil électrique pour toute opération autre que celle pour

laquelle il a été conçu est dangereuse.

5) RÉPARATION

a) Faire réparer l’outil électrique par un réparateur professionnel en n’utilisant que des

pièces de rechange identiques. Cela permettra de maintenir une utilisation sécuritaire

de l’outil électrique.
