risk of personal injury.
21 . Have your tool repaired by a qualified person.
ʵ This electric tool complies with relevant safety rules. Repairs should only be carried out
by qualified persons using original spare parts; otherwise this may result in considerable
danger to the user.
Additional Safety Rules For Thickness Planers
Wear safety goggles, working gloves and ear protection when operating.
Never operate the machine without all guards and anti-kickback device in place and in
perfect working condition.
When planing, do not use the machine without the fence in position. Make sure that the lower
edge of the fence touches the upper table top.

WARNING: The infeed and outfeed table were accurately adjusted at the factory. Never
change the setting of the tables yourself.
Use only cutting blades designed for this machine.
Always use blades which are well sharpened and maintained.
Do not use the machine for working any material other than soft or hard wood.
Never cut recesses, tenons or moulds. Rebating is not permitted.
Never carry out stopped work (i.e., cuts that do not involve working over the full length of
the workpiece).
Avoid working badly bowed wood providing inadequate contact with the infeed table.
Before use, check that the the kickback and feed spindles are functioning properly.
Remove all nails and metal objects from the workpiece before starting work. Do not use
splintery wood.
In the planing mode, make sure the upper blade guard is adjusted to provide
optimum screening.
Ensure that the elevating handle is out of the feed area.
When working long pieces, use a suitable roller table on both sides of the machine adjusted to
the height of the tables.
Keep your hands well clear of the blades.
In the planing mode, use a push stick at all times.
Keep the push stick in its place when not in use.
Refrain from removing any cut-offs or other parts of the workpiece from the cutting area
whilst the cutter block is running.
Workpiece sizes:
ʵ Without additional support the machine is designed to accept the maximum workpiece
size of:
PLANER
Height 140 mm by width 260 mm by length 500 mm
Never cut workpiece shorter than 300 mm
THICKNESSER
Height 160 mm by width 260 mm by length 600 mm
Never cut workpiece shorter than 500 mm
ʵ Longer workpiece needs to be supported by suitable additional table, e.g., roller table.
In case of an accident or machine failure immediately switch the machine off and disconnect
from socket.
Report the failure and mark the machine in suitable form to prevent other people from using
the defective machine.
PLANER ONLY: When the cutter block is blocked caused by abnormal feed force during
cutting, switch the machine off and disconnect from power supply. Remove the workpiece
and ensure that the cutter block runs free. Switch the machine on and start new cutting
operation with reduced feed force.
Ensure that any portion of the cutterblock not being used for planing is safely guarded.

WARNING: We recommend the use of a residual current device with a residual current
rating of 30mA or less.
Residual Risks
The following risks are inherent to the use of planers:
In spite of the application of the relevant safety regulations and the implementation of safety
devices, certain residual risks cannot be avoided.
These are:
Risk of accidents caused by the uncovered parts of the rotating blade.
Risk of injury when changing the blade.
Risk of squeezing fingers when opening the guards.
Health hazards caused by breathing dust developed when planing wood, especially oak,
beech and MDF.
The following factors increase the risk of breathing problems:
No dust extractor connected when sawing wood.
Insufficient dust extraction caused by uncleaned exhaust filters.
Electrical Safety
The electric motor has been designed for one voltage only (400 V – 3 Ph), and two voltages
only (230 – 1 Ph). Always check that the power supply corresponds to the voltage on the
rating plate.
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by a specially prepared cord available
through the D
WALT service organization.
e
Mains Plug Replacement
(U.K. & Ireland only)
If a new mains plug needs to be fitted:
Safely dispose of the old plug.
Connect the brown lead to the live terminal in the plug.
Connect the blue lead to the neutral terminal.
Connect the yellow green lead to the pe terminal.
Follow the fitting instructions supplied with good quality plugs. Recommended fuse: 13 A
(230 V only).
Using an Extension Cable
If an extension cable is required, use an approved 3–core extension cable suitable for the
power input of this tool (seeTechnical data). The minimum conductor size is 1.5 mm
maximum length is 20 m.
When using a cable reel, always unwind the cable completely.
