9. TO AVOID INJURY FROM ACCIDENTAL STARTING OF THE THICKNESS PLANER. Make
sure the power switch is in the OFF position before plugging the planer into a power source.
WHEN THE THICKNESS PLANER IS RUNNING
1. KEEP CHILDREN AND BYSTANDERS AWAY FROM THE PLANER.
2. ALLOW THE THICKNESS PLANER TO RUN FOR A WHILE BEFORE CUTTING. If it
makes an unfamiliar noise or vibrates, turn the thickness planer OFF immediately, and
then unplug it. Do not restart the planer until the problem is identified and corrected.
3. DO NOT FORCE THE TOOL. Feed the workpiece into the thickness planer only fast
enough to let the tool cut without bogging down.
4. BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO FREE JAMMED MATERIAL, turn the thickness planer OFF
and wait for all moving parts to stop. Unplug the thickness planer.

WARNING:
DO NOT MAKE A CARELESS ERROR. A MOMENT OF NEGLECT CAN
