Safety notes:

Avoid untidiness in your working area.
An untidy working area always means an increased risk
of accident. Remember to clean your working area of
wood chips from time to time as well as during opera-
tion.
Fasten the device to a solid surface and make sure it
is even.
In any case make sure that the device cannot fall down
or tilt during operation. Drill holes have been provided in
the foot for this purpose so that the planer can be
screwed down to the surface.
Check the device for signs of damage before each
use.
Always check the cutting tools, the safety mechanisms,
the connecting cable and the plug every time before you
start up the planing machine.
Please note: Defective parts, particularly damaged safe-
ty devices, may only be replaced by a specialist or the
PROXXON customer service. Only use original Proxxon
spare parts.
Do not manipulate your planing machine!
12
Do not make any changes to the machine and do not
manipulate anything! Changes or manipulations could
12
impair mechanical and electrical safety, but your safety
13
in particular could also be at risk due to electric shock
and further adverse effects. Injuries and material dam-
13
age could be the result.
14
Never work without the designated safety mecha-
14
nisms.
14
Always make sure that all housing covers of the planer
14
are closed during operation and that the safety mecha-
nisms work faultlessly.
14
Pay attention to environmental conditions!
14
Use the planer only in dry environments and never in the
15
vicinity of combustible liquids or gases. Make sure you
15
have good lighting!
15
Wear a mask and only operate the planing machine
in well ventilated rooms!
15
If inhaled, the dust from some of the woods being
15
processed could be hazardous to your health. There-
16
fore, take the appropriate precautions and wear a mask.
16
Wear protective goggles!
