GENERAL SAFETY RULES
(For All Battery Operated Tools)
WARNING! Read and understand all instructions. Failure
tofollow all instructionslisted below, may result
in electric
shock, fire and/or serious personal injury.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
Work Area
1. Keepyour work area cleanand well lit. Cluttered benchesanddark areas invite
accidents.
2. Do notoperate powertools in explosiveatmospheres, suchas in the presence
of flammable liquids, gases, or dust. Power tools create sparks which may
ignite the dust or fumes.
3. Keep bystanders, children, and visitors away while operating a power tool.
Distractions can cause you to lose control.
Electrical Safety
4. A battery operated tool with integral batteries or a separate battery pack
must be rechargedonly withthe specified charger for the battery.
A charger
that may be suitable for one type
of battery may create a risk of fire when
used with another battery.
5. Use battery operated tool only with specifically designated battery pack.
Use of any other batteries may create a risk of fire.
Personal Safety
6. Stay alert, watch what youare doing, andusecommonsense when operating
a power tool.
Do not use tool while tired or under the influence of drugs,
alcohol, or medication.
A moment of inattentionwhile operating power tools
may result
in serious personal injury.
7. Dress properly. Do not wear looseclothing orjewelry. Containlonghair. Keep
your hair, clothing, andgloves away from movingparts. Looseclothes, jewelry,
or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
8. Avoid accidentalstarting. Be sure switch is in the lockedor off position before
inserting battery pack. Carrying tools with your finger on the switch or
inserting the battery pack into a tool
with the switch on invites accidents.
9. Remove adjusting keys or wrenches before turning the tool on. A wrench
or a key that isleft attached to a rotating part
of the tool may result inpersonal
injury.
10. Do notoverreach. Keep properfootingandbalanceat alltimes. Proper footing
and balance enable better control of the tool
in unexpected situations.
11. Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Dust mask, non-skid
safety shoes, hard
hat, or hearing protection must be used for appropriate
conditions.
3

Tool Use and Care
12. Use clamps or other practical way tosecure and support the workpiece to
a stable platform. Holdingthe work by hand or against your body is unstable
and may lead to
loss of control.
13. Do not forcetool. Usethe correct tool for your application. The correct tool
will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it is designed.
14. Do not use tool if switch does not turn it on or off. A toot.that cannot be
controlled
with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
15.Disconnect battery pack from tool or place the switch
in the locked or off
position before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing
the tool. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting thetool
accidentally.
16.Store idle tools out of reach of childrenand other untrained persons. Tools
are dangerous
in the hands of untrained users.
17.When battery pack isnot
in use, keep it away from other metalobjects like:
paper clips, coins, keys, nails, screws, or other small metalobjects that can
make a connection from one terminal to another. Shorting the battery
terminals together may cause sparks, burns, or a fire.
18. Maintain tools with care. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly
maintained tools
with sharp cuttingedge are less likely tobind andare easier
to control.
19. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, and
any other condition that may affect the tool's operation. If damaged, have
the tool serviced before using. Many accidents are caused by poorly
maintained tools.
20. Use only accessories that are recommended by the manufacturer for your
model. Accessories that may be suitable for onetool may create a riskof injury
when used on another tool.
Service
21. Tool service must be performed only by qualified repair personnel. Service
or maintenance performed by unqualified personnelmay result
in a risk of injury.
22. When servicing a tool, use only identical replacement parts. Follow
instructions
in the Maintenance sectionof this manual. Use of unauthorized
partsor failure tofollow Maintenance Instructionsmay create a risk of shock
or injury.

OPERATION
Planingoperation
First, rest the tool front base flat upon the workpiece surface without the blades making
any contact. Switch on and wait until the blades attain full speed. Then move the tool
gentlyforward.Apply pressure on the front
of tool
at the start of planing, and at the
back at the end
of planing. Planing will be
easier if you incline the workpiece in sta-
tionary fashion,
so that you can plane
somewhat downhill. The speed and depth
of cut determine the kind of finish. The
power planer keeps cuttingat a speed that
will not result in jamming by chips. For
rough cutting, the depth of cut can be
increased, while
for a good finish you
should reduce the depth
of cut and
advance the tool more slowly.
MAINTENANCE
CAUTION:
Always be sure that the tool is switched
off and the batterycartridge is removed before
attemptingto performinspection or maintenance.
To maintain productSAFETY and RELIABILIW, repairs, maintenanceor adjustment should
