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.

Electrical Safety

The electric motor has been designed for one voltage range only. Always check that 

the power supply corresponds to the voltage on the rating plate. 220–240 V AC 

means your tool will operate on alternating current. Operation at a voltage outside this 

range can cause loss of power and can result in overheating. All D

WALT tools are 

factory tested; if this tool does not operate, check the power supply. Your D

Additional Specific Safety Rules for Planers

  •  To reduce the risk of injury, user must read and understand instruction manual 

before operating planer. 

  •  Always wear eye protection and dust mask if necessary.
  •  Keep hands away from the underside of the cutter head carriage.
  •  Never clear clogs, make cutter knife replacement, or any other repairs/

adjustments with unit plugged in.

  •  Make certain that the switch is in the OFF position before connecting plug to a 

power source.

  •  To prevent unexpected “turn on” of the tool after power is disrupted, turn the 

switch OFF before restoring power.

  •  Be sure that the cutter knives are mounted as described in the instruction manual 

and check that all bolts are firmly tightened before connecting unit to power 

source.

  •  To avoid injury, never rotate the cutter block directly with your hands.
  •  Keep guards in place and in good working order.
  •  Stay alert – never operate the unit when tired or under the influence of drugs, 

alcohol, or medication.

  •  Do not use in dangerous environments. Do not use near flammable substances, 

in damp or wet locations, or expose to rain.

  •  Never plane material which is shorter than 304.8 mm (12").
  •  Exhaust chute: remove shavings with brush or vacuum after power has been 

shut off and cutter head has stopped rotating.

 • 

ALWAYS LOCATE PLANER WITH PROPER CLEARANCE ON THE OUTFEED SIDE

of the unit to prevent pinching or binding of the workpiece against any obstacle.
