sonnel employed).
Before starting work on the machine, the person responsible for its operation must have read the operat-
ing instructions, especially the chapter 4 "Safety Instructions". This applies in particular to personnel
who only occasionally work on the machine.
Check that work is carried out in a safety-conscious and hazard-conscious manner and in compliance with
the operating manual.
Operators must not wear open long hair, loose clothing or jewellery (including rings). There is a risk of
injury, e.g. by getting caught or drawn in.
Observe the safety instructions and danger warnings on the machine and keep them complete and in
legible condition.
In case of safety-relevant changes to the machine or its operating behaviour, shut down the entire system
immediately and report the fault to the responsible office/person.
Use personal protective equipment as necessary or required by regulations.
Do not make any modifications, additional attachments or conversions to the machine without the manu-
facturer's approval! This will compromise safety and invalidate the manufacturer's warranty and any lia-
bility claim.
Spare parts must meet the technical requirements specified by the manufacturer. The exclusive use of
original spare parts ensures this. Therefore, only use original spare parts from the manufacturer.
Observe the fire alarm and firefighting possibilities. Make the location and operation of fire extinguishers
(fire class ABC) known. Do not use water!
4.1.6 Personnel Selection and Qualification - Basic Duties
•The machine design and operation is intended for right-handers.
•Work on and with the machine may only be carried out by reliable personnel.
•Observe the legal minimum age!
•Only use trained or instructed personnel. Clearly define the responsibilities of the personnel for operating,
setting up, maintaining and repairing!
•Ensure that only authorised personnel work on the machine!
•If personnel to be trained or apprenticed have to work on the machine, this may only be done under the
constant supervision of an experienced resp. qualified person.
•Work on the electrical equipment of the machine may only be carried out by a qualified electrician or by

4.1.7 Training of Personnel
All machine operators must be adequately trained in the operation and maintenance of the machine. In partic-
ular, the training must include the following:
•General rules for the use of the machine, proper operation, correct adjustment of the machine and sur-
face planer fence as well as the use of other accessories (e. g.).
•Proper handling of workpieces during the machining process. Correct position of the hands to the work-
piece and to the cutter block during and after machining.
•The personnel must be informed about hazards, risks and appropriate protective measures.
•The personnel must be trained in the area of regular checks of the guards and protective devices.
•The personnel must be trained in the use of the guards and protective devices.
4.2 Safety Instructions for Specific Phases of Operation
Defects and damage to the machine are to be reported immediately after detection.
Any mode of operation that compromises safety is prohibited!
Sufficient lighting around the machine must be ensured!
The machine must not be used if the fingers of the anti-kickback system are damaged or do
not fall back unhindered by their own weight!
4.2.1 Normal Operation
Guards: Take measures to ensure that the machine can only be operated in a safe and functional condi-
tion. Only operate the machine when all guards and safety-related devices such as
- detachable guards,
- anti-kickback system,
- emergency stop units,
- noise insulations,
- extraction system
are available and functional.
Adjustments: Change and adjust the planing knives as described in chapter 11.
The workpiece fence must always be securely fastened during this process.
Workpiece: Before the operation, check the workpiece for
- foreign inclusions
- knots
- twists (contortions)
and other irregularities.
Workpieces that are longer than the infeed or outfeed table must be additionally supported
(e.g. with support rollers or similar).
Due to the automatic feed, make sure that there is sufficient space on the removal side in front of station-
ary obstacles (danger of crushing!).
Auxiliary equipment: For surface planing and jointing of short workpieces that do not allow a safe hand
support, push blocks are to be used. The shape of the push block must be adapted to the workpiece. Feed
workpieces with a length < 400 mm, thin workpieces or workpieces with a very smooth surface only with a
push block or push stick.
Jointing high workpieces: Ensure controlled lateral pressure so that tilting is prevented. The cutter block
must be completely covered.

BA_WP_ADH5-410_EN_22-22.docx
15
Machine condition: Check the machine for externally visible damage and defects at least once per shift!
Any changes that have occurred (including those in the operating behaviour) must be reported immedi-
ately to the responsible office or person! If necessary, stop and secure the machine immediately!
Extraction: The machine must be connected to an effective extraction system. This requires an extraction
rate of at least 1800 m3/hour at a speed of 25 ... 30 m/s.
Work area: An obstacle-free work area around the machine is essential for safe operation. The floor
should be level, well maintained and free from debris such as chips and cut-off workpieces.
Planing area during operation: Never try to remove offcuts, chips or other parts from the planing area
while the machine is running! Never use your hands to remove!
Chamfering and bevelling: To produce chamfers or bevels, a corresponding template must be used to
guide the workpiece and produce the desired angle. Fixed guides must be fitted to the template to pre-
vent lateral movement of the workpiece. The base plate of the template must be provided with bars to
hold the template on both sides of the thicknessing table against shifting during the workpiece feed.
Workpiece inspection: Inspect the workpiece for foreign inclusions, knots, twists and other irregularities.
Workpiece feed: Always feed the workpiece in a closed, flat hand position.
Lighting: The working area should be sufficiently bright due to general or local lighting.
Work interruptions: Switch off the machine even during short interruptions! Never leave the machine
running unattended!
Leaving the machine: Switch off the control voltage and main switch before leaving the machine. Never
leave the machine unattended in an unsecured state.
4.2.2 Special work within the Scope of Maintenance Work as well as Troubleshooting in
the Workflow
Observe maintenance and inspection activities prescribed in the operating manual!
These activities, as well as all other repair work, may only be carried out by qualified personnel!
For all work concerning operation, production adjustment, conversion or setting of the machine and its
safety-related equipment as well as maintenance and repair, observe switch-on and switch-off procedures
according to the operating manual and instructions for maintenance work!
Secure the machine against unexpected restarting during maintenance and repair work.
➔Lock the main switch with a padlock!
Always tighten screw connections that have been loosened during maintenance and repair work!
If it is necessary to dismantle safety equipment during set-up, maintenance and repair, the safety equip-
ment must be reassembled and checked immediately after completion of the maintenance and repair
work!
Ensure safe and environmentally friendly disposal of operating and auxiliary materials (e.g. oils) and re-
placement parts (e.g. electronic components)!

BA_WP_ADH5-410_EN_22-22.docx

4.2.3 Safe Working Practices
Wear personal protective equipment (safety goggles, safety shoes, hearing protection, dust mask)!
Always work with all protective devices! These must be in the intended places and in perfect working
order. Defective guards must be replaced immediately.
Do not start planing until the motor / tool has reached full speed.
Do not use damaged tools resp. knifes or cutting blocks.
Do not exceed the permissible speed of the tool.
Damaged parts must be replaced with new ones.
Workpieces that are longer than the infeed or outfeed table must be supported additionally. (e.g. table
extension, support rollers or similar).
Repairs may only be carried out by qualified personnel and with the main switch locked.
Unused areas of the cutter block must always be covered (also during combined operation).
During surface planing workpieces with a length < 400 mm, thin workpieces or workpieces with a very
smooth surface are to be pushed forward with a push block or push stick.
When planing surfaces, always push the workpiece with the hand in a closed, flat position and the thumb
resting against it. Advance the workpiece at a steady speed and with constant pressure on the table.
Do not remove splinters and chips by hand while the cutter is running.
When jointing high workpieces, ensure controlled lateral pressure (prevent tilting) and complete covering
of the cutter block.
Danger from ejecting parts! Always keep the insertion shaft clear when the cutter is running and do not
look into the opening
4.2.4 Construction-related Safety Devices
The machine construction already includes the following safety precautions:
•Microswitch that switches off the machine when the surface planer outfeed table is opened.
•Stopper for opening the surface planer infeed table before opening the outfeed table.
•Microswitch that is actuated when the chip collector is opened in the “thickness planing” mode. This pre-
vents dangerous starting of the exposed cutter block.
•The machine cannot start if the surface planer tables and the chip collector are not closed in the “surface
planing” mode.
•Chip collector for collecting dust and chips: This has an intermediate piece for fastening to the extraction
system. The chip collector covers the cutter block from above when operating as a thickness planer and
avoids access to the cutter block below the tables when operating as a surface planer. The chip collector
can be attached for both modes of operation (see section 7.6.2).
•Separators between the cutter block and the infeed resp. outfeed roller: These serve as contact protec-
tion for the cutter block underneath the tables of the surface planer.
•n thicknessing mode, the surface planer tables are in a vertical, folded-up position and are mechanically
secured in this position by locking springs to prevent them from falling down unintentionally.
•The dressing machine's outfeed table has a stopper which, when set vertically, prevents the work surface
from sinking lower than the upper point of the cutter block.
•The surface planing tables prevent rebate machining with the cutter block.
•Serrated table lips at the ends of the planing table directly on the cutter block. These dampen the noise
and always remain at a distance of 1 to 5 mm from the cutting circle, regardless of the position of the ta-
bles.

BA_WP_ADH5-410_EN_22-22.docx
17
•Anti-kickback fingers when operating as a thickness planer: This protection device against kickback is lo-
cated on the infeed side in front of the feed roller of the thickness planer and covers the entire working
width. The system consists of individual fingers that are mounted on a ø 20 mm shaft. The width of the
fingers is 15 mm and the distance between the fingers is 6 mm. In the initial position, the fingers are 3
mm below the cutting circle. They are designed in such a way that - under the effect of their own weight -
they always return to their initial position.
•On the infeed side of the thickness planer there is a stopper to limit the chip removal.
•The table of the thickness planer can be adjusted and locked in vertical direction.
•As a kickback protection, there is a stopper to limit the thickness planer table in vertical direction. This
avoids contact between the feed and pull rollers and the anti-kickback device.
•The thickness planing table has side stops for limiting the working width and for workpiece guidance.
•Bridge guard for the cutter block in front of the fence for jointing: Covers the unused part of the cutter
block in surface planing mode and can be height adjusted from 0 to 75 mm.
•Fence for jointing: Serves as a secure support and for the correct guidance of the workpieces when oper-
ating as a surface planer and jointer. The tilt angle can be adjusted between 90° and 45°. The fence can be
moved over the entire working width of the surface planer tables.
•Protection of the cutter block behind the fence: Covers the cutter block behind the fence. The guard is
mounted on the fence and moves with it.
•The dynamically balanced cutter block reduces vibrations and improves the planing pattern.
•When the cutter drive is switched off, the feed of the thickness planer is stopped at the same time.
4.3 Electrical Safety Devices
•Emergency stop push button: In the event of danger, the centrally accessible emergency stop button im-
mediately puts the machine out of operation.
•Lockable main switch: The main switch can be locked with a padlock to protect the machine (e.g. during
adjustment, repair and maintenance work) against unintentional or unauthorised restarting.
•Electronic brake for electrodynamic braking of the motor: This ensures the cutter block comes to a stand-
still in less than 10 seconds after the motor is switched off.
•Undervoltage protection: When the power is interrupted, the machine is brought to a standstill, where it
remains when the power is restored. To put it back into operation, it must be switched on again.
•Protection against electric shock: The housing of the machine and the drives are protected against electric
shock with a neutral line.
•Dust and water protection: The control cabinet and motor are protected against contact, dust and splash
water on all sides with protection class IP54.
•Short circuit protection: The machine is equipped with overload protection for the motor (thermal switch).
•The internal safety switches on the surface planing tables prevent the machine from starting when the
tables are open or when the chip collector is not set correctly.

4.4 Hazardous Areas
4.4.1 Danger Zones during Surface Planing
Figure 2: Danger zones during surface planing
Danger Zone
Type of hazard
Prevention
1
Danger of drawing in and cutting!
The area around the cutter block is
considered an absolute danger
zone. There is an increased risk of
injury and even death when reach-
ing into this area. There is also an
increased risk of clothing, hair,
watches and jewellery being
pulled in.
1. Never reach into the Danger Zone 1 when the cutter is
running (see Figure above).
2. Always cover the unused part of the cutter block with a
planer guard.
3. To feed, the hands must lie flat on the workpiece with
fingers closed and thumbs applied. Important: Do not grip
the edges of the workpiece!
4. Wearing loose clothing, gloves, loose hair, watches and
jewellery is prohibited. Suitable pushing aids must be used
for short, very flat and narrow workpieces.
5. The operator must always stand in front of the planing &
jointing table. It is forbidden to be in Danger Zone 2 (see
Figure above) when the cutter block is running. This ap-
plies equally to the operator and to any helper.
2
Risk of kickback!
Risk of injury due to the work-
piece being kicked back or due to
workpieces and workpiece or tool
parts being catapulted away (e.g.
tool breakage).
4.4.2 Working Areas & Protective Measures
•When surface planing & jointing, the operator of the machine must generally stand in front of the planing
table, to the right of the cutter block resp. planer guard. It is forbidden to enter the Danger Zone 2 marked
in Figure 2 while the cutter is running.
•A required helper for workpiece removal must generally stand on the left side of the planing & jointing
table. The helper does not intervene in the machining process, but only removes the finished workpieces.
It is forbidden for helpers to stay on the infeed side or in the danger zone.
•Any observers must generally remain outside the danger zones. A sufficient distance is prescribed so that
the operator of the machine and any assistant cannot be hindered in their work.

4.4.3 Danger Zones during Thicknessing
Figure 3: Danger zones during thicknessing
Danger Zone
Type of hazard
Prevention
1
Danger of drawing in and cutting!
Although the cutter block is not accessible
from the outside, it is theoretically possi-
ble to reach into the infeed and outfeed
opening of the machine and thus into the
rotating cutter block. There is a high risk
of injury and even death here!
1. Never reach into the opening of the thickness
planer while the cutter is running or the ma-
chine is switched on (see Danger Zone 1
above).
2. Before carrying out maintenance work or re-
moving pieces of material, be sure to switch off
the main switch and secure it with a padlock.
2
Risk of kickback!
Despite anti-kickback protection, in excep-
tional cases the workpiece can kick back
dangerously and cause the most serious
injuries and endanger the lives of people.
This can be the case, for example, if the
workpiece tilts in such a way that the anti-
kickback system can no longer engage.
1. The operator must always stand next to the
machine and never in front of the infeed open-
ing. In addition, the workpiece must never be
pushed with the body.
2. It is forbidden to stay in Danger Zone 2 (see
figure above) when the cutter block is running.
This applies equally to the operator and to a
helper.
3
Danger of crushing!
The processed workpiece is constantly
pushed out of the outfeed side of the
thickness planer by means of automatic
feed. If there is an obstacle on the outfeed
side, there is a risk of a person being
crushed.
Keep the outfeed side clear at all times and do
not place any obstacles, such as walls, material
handling trolleys, forklift trucks, etc. in the Dan-
ger Zone 3 shown in the figure above.
4.4.4 Working Areas & Protective Measures
•The operator of the machine must generally stand on the infeed side of the machine, in the cutting direc-
tion and with his body to the side of the machine table during thicknessing. Do not enter the Danger Zone
2 marked in Figure 3 while the cutter is running.
•To avoid tipping of longer workpieces, a table extension should be used.
•A required helper for workpiece removal must generally stand on the outfeed side of the machine. The
helper does not intervene in the machining process, but only removes the finished workpieces. It is for-
bidden for helpers to stay on the infeed side or in the danger zone.
•Any observers must generally remain outside the danger zones. A sufficient distance is prescribed so that
the operator of the machine and any assistant cannot be hindered in their work.
