Safety Advice Relating Specifically To Power Planers - Parkside PEH 30 A1 Originalbetriebsanleitung

intended to prevent you from unintentionally
starting the device.
d) When not in use always ensure that
electrical power tools are kept out of
reach of children. Do not let anyone use
the device if he or she is not familiar
with it or has not read the instructions
and advice. Electrical power tools are dan-
gerous when they are used by inexperienced
people.
e) Look after the device carefully. Check
that moving parts are working prop-
erly and move freely. Check for any
parts that are broken or damaged
enough to detrimentally affect the
functioning of the device. Have dam-
aged parts repaired before you use
the device. Many accidents have their origins
in poorly maintained electrical power tools.
f) Keep cutting tools clean and sharp.
Carefully maintained cutting tools with sharp
cutting edges are less likely to jam and are
easier to control.
g) Use the electrical power tool, accesso-
ries, inserted tools etc. in accordance
with these instructions and advice, and
the stipulations drawn up for this par-
ticular type of device. In doing this, take
into account the working conditions
and the task in hand. The use of electrical
power tools for purposes other than those in-
tended can lead to dangerous situations.
Safety advice relating
specifically to power
planers
Wait until the blade shaft
pletely stopped moving before you
put the device down. An exposed blade
shaft may catch on the surface and lead to loss
of control or serious injury.
Do not place your fingers in the planer
debris removal port
from rotating parts.
Always switch on the device before
placing it against the workpiece. Oth-

erwise the device could kick back if the planer
blade gets snagged in the workpiece.
When working always keep the sole
flat against the workpiece. Otherwise
you could be injured if the plane tilts.
Never plane over metal objects. Other-
wise the planer blade / blade shaft
be damaged.
Secure the workpiece. Use clamps or a
vice to grip the workpiece firmly. This is much
safer than holding it with your hand.
Do not plane materials containing
asbestos. Asbestos is a known carcinogen.
The dust generated while
planing could be hazardous
to health, inflammable or
explosive. Wear a dust mask and use a suit-
able dust / debris vacuum extraction device.
Some dusts are known carcinogens.
When planing wood for long periods
and in particular when working on
materials that give rise to dusts that
are hazardous to health, the planer
must be connected to a suitable exter-
nal dust extraction device.
Do not use the power planer if its
mains lead is damaged. Damaged mains
leads increase the risk of electric shock.
Never support yourself by placing
your hands near or in front of the
device or on the workpiece surface.
If you slip you could be injured.
If a dangerous situation arises, pull
the mains plug immediately out of the
mains socket.
When taking a break from your
work, before carrying out any tasks
on the device itself (e.g. changing the
plane blade) or when you are not us-
ing the device, always pull the mains
plug out of the mains socket.
Always work with the mains lead lead-
ing away from the rear of the device.
Use sharp planer blades only.
Do not soak the materials or the sur-
face you are about to work on with
liquids containing solvents.
Avoid contact with rotating parts.
