wash exposed areas with soap and water. Allowing
dust to get into your mouth, eyes, or lay on the skin may
promote absorption of harmfulchemicals.

WARNING: Use of this tool can generate and/
or disperse dust, which may cause serious and
permanent respiratory or other injury. Always use
NIOSH/OSHA approved respiratory protection
appropriate for the dust exposure. Direct particles
away from face andbody.

WARNING: Always wear proper personal hearing
protection that conforms to ANSI S12.6 (S3.19)
during use. Under some conditions and duration
of use, noise from this product may contribute to
hearingloss.
• Air vents often cover moving parts and should be
avoided. Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair can be
caught in movingparts.
• An extension cord must have adequate wire size
for safety. The smaller the gauge number of the wire,
the greater the capacity of the cable, that is, 16 gauge
has more capacity than 18 gauge. An undersized cord
will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power
and overheating. When using more than one extension
to make up the total length, be sure each individual
extension contains at least the minimum wire size. The
following table shows the correct size to use depending on
cord length and nameplate ampere rating. If in doubt, use
the next heavier gauge. The lower the gauge number, the
heavier thecord.

Motor
Be sure your power supply agrees with the nameplate
marking. Voltage decrease of more than 10% will cause loss
of power and overheating.

COMPONENTS (FIG. A)

WARNING: Never modify the power tool or any part
of it. Damage or personal injury couldresult.
Refer to Figure A at the beginning of this manual for a
complete list ofcomponents.
INTENDED USE
Your
DeWALT
DW733 thickness planer has been designed
for professional cutting of wood. It performs planing
operations accurately and safely.
DO NOT use under wet conditions or in presence of
flammable liquids orgases.
This thickness planer is a professional power tool.
DO NOT let children come into contact with the tool.
Supervision is required when inexperienced operators use
thistool.
ASSEMBLY AND ADJUSTMENTS

WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal
injury, turn unit off and disconnect it from
power source before making any adjustments or
removing/installing attachments or accessories.
An accidental start-up can causeinjury.
Bench Mounting (Fig. B)
• Holes
6
are provided in all four feet to facilitate bench
mounting. Two different sized holes are provided to
accommodate different sizes of bolts. Use either hole;
it is not necessary to use both. Always mount your
machine firmly to prevent movement. To enhance
portability, the tool can be mounted to a piece of
12.5 mm or thicker plywood which can then be
clamped to your work support or moved to other job
sites andreclamped.
• When mounting your machine to a piece of plywood,
make sure that the mounting screws do not protrude
from the bottom of the wood. The plywood must sit
flush on the work support.
• To prevent binding and inaccuracy, be sure the
mounting surface is not warped or otherwise uneven.

WARNING: The machine must be level and stable at
all times.
