Remaining risks

Even when the electric tool is used properly and
all the relevant safety measures are followed,
the following remaining risks can still occur due
to the design of the electric tool required for the
intended working operations:
- Contact with the cutting blades during
rundown;
- Clothing can be caught by the rotating parts;
- Hazards invited by the flexible supply cord;
- Hazards invited by the harmful dust when
using the planer for a long time without a dust
extractor.
Operating the electric tool
for a first time
- Check if the data on the nameplate
correspond with the actual voltage of the
power supply.
- The electric tools with rated voltage 230 V
may be also connected to 220 V.
- Fusing for 230 V: 16 A slow-action fuse or
equivalent automatic circuit breaker.
- The planer is equipped with the overload
cut-out and LED overload indicator. The
overload cut-out protects the motor against
excessive overloading.
- Use only extension cords with a cross section
of 3 x 1,5 mm , max. 20 m length 2
(3 x 2,5 mm , max. 50 m). When the electric 2
tool is used outdoors, use only extension
cords intended for outdoor use and so
marked.
