NOTICE
The following section was designed to give
instructions on the basic operations of this
planer. However, it is in no way comprehen-
sive of every planing application. WE
STRONGLY RECOMMEND that you read
books, trade magazines, or get formal train-
ing to maximize the potential of your planer.
ON/OFF Switch
The ON/OFF switch is located on the front of the
planer. See Figure 6. The switch has a key that,
when removed, allows it to be locked in the OFF
position. To access the locking feature, push the
switch to the OFF position and pull the switch key
out. Should the key be removed when the planer
is ON, it can still be turned OFF, but it will not be
able to be restarted until the key is replaced.
