WARNING:
Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction activities contains chemi-
cals 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.
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.
SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES
NEVER PUT YOUR FINGERS into the dust hood or under
the cutter guard.
ALLOW THE CUTTERHEAD to reach full speed before
using the planer.
REPLACEMENT PARTS. All repairs, whether electrical or
mechanical, should be made at your nearest authorized
service center.

ALWAYS STAY ALERT! Do not allow familiarity (gained
from frequent use of your planer) to cause a careless
mistake. ALWAYS REMEMBER that a careless fraction
of a second is sufficient to inflict serious injury.
MAKE SURE THE WORK AREA HAS AMPLE LIGHTING
to see the work and that no obstructions will interfere with
safe operation BEFORE performing any work using your
