surface leading to possible loss of control and se-

rious injury.

f

Hold the power tool by insulated gripping surfaces 

only, because the cutter may contact its own cord. 

Cutting a ”live” wire may make exposed metal parts 

of the powertool ”live” and could give the operator 

an electric shock.

f

Use clamps or another practical way to secure 

and support the workpiece to a stable platform. 

Holding the work by your hand or against the body 

leaves it unstable and may lead to loss of control.

CONNECTION TO THE POWER SUPPLY

Make sure the power supply information on the ma-

chine's rating plate are compatible with the power 

supply you intend to connect it to. 

This appliance is Class II* and is designed for connec-

tion to a power supply matching that detailed on the 

rating label and compatible with the plug fitted. If 

an extension lead is required, use an approved and 

compatible lead rated for this appliance. Follow all 

the instruction supplied with the extension lead.

*Double insulated 

  :  This  product  requires  no 

earth connection as supplementary insulation is 

applied to the basic insulation to protect against 

electric shock in the event of failure of the basic 

insulation.

GUIDELINES FOR USING EXTENSION CORDS

f

Make sure your extension cord is in good condition. 

When using an extension cord, be sure to use one 

heavy enough to carry the current your product will 

draw. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line 

voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating. 

f

Always replace a damaged extension cord or have it 

repaired by a qualified person before using it.

f

Protect your extension cords from sharp objects, ex

-

cessive heat and damp/wet areas.

f

Use a separate electrical circuit for your tools. This 

circuit should be protected with the appropriate 

time-delayed fuse. Before connecting the motor to 

the power line, make sure the switch is in the OFF 

position and the electric voltage is rated the same as 

the voltage stamped on the motor nameplate. Run

-

ning at a lower voltage will damage the motor.

OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS 

WARNING:

ƒ

Always  unplug  the  planer  before  adjusting  the

ƒ

Make sure that the workpiece is securely fas-

tened to the work bench and that the work bench 

is stable and won’t move.

ƒ

Lower the parking rest
