Site Considerations
FLOOR LOAD
Your G1033 Planer represents a large weight
load in a small footprint. Most commercial floors
are suitable for the Model G1033. Some residen-
tial floors may require additional build up to sup-
port both machine and operator.
WORKING CLEARANCES
Working clearances can be thought of as the dis-
tances between machines and obstacles that
allow safe operation of every machine without
limitation. Consider existing and anticipated
machine needs, size of material to be processed
through each machine, and space for auxiliary
stands and/or work tables. Also consider the rel-
ative position of each machine to one another for
efficient material handling. Be sure to allow your-
self sufficient room to safely run your machines in
any foreseeable operation.
LIGHTING AND OUTLETS
Lighting should be bright enough to eliminate
shadow and prevent eye strain. Electrical circuits
should be dedicated or large enough to handle
combined motor amp loads. Outlets should be
located near each machine so power or exten-
sion cords are not obstructing high-traffic areas.
Be sure to observe local electrical codes for prop-
er installation of new lighting, outlets, or circuits.
Make your shop “child safe”. Ensure that
your workplace is inaccessible to young-
sters by closing and locking all entrances
when you are away. Never allow visitors in
your shop when assembling, adjusting or
operating equipment.
Clean Up
The unpainted surfaces are coated with a waxy
oil to protect it from corrosion during shipment.
Remove this protective coating with with a sol-
vent cleaner or citrus-based degreaser. Avoid
chlorine-based solvents as they may damage
painted surfaces should they come in contact.
Always follow the usage instructions on the prod-
uct you choose for clean up.
Many of the solvents commonly used to
clean machinery can be highly flammable,
and toxic when inhaled or ingested. Always
work in well-ventilated areas far from poten-
tial ignition sources when dealing with sol-
vents. Use care when disposing of waste
rags and towels to be sure they do not cre-
ate fire or environmental hazards. Keep chil-
dren and animals safely away when clean-
ing and assembling this machine.
Do not use gasoline or other petroleum-
based solvents to remove this protective
coating. These products generally have
low flash points which makes them
extremely flammable. A risk of explosion
and burning exists if these products are
used. Serious personal injury may occur.
Some die-cut metal parts may have sharp
edges (called “flashing”) on them after they
are formed. Please examine the edges of all
die-cut metal parts before handling them.
Failure to do so could result in injury.
