Use and Care Manual

Always mount your planer firmly to prevent movement. To enhance
the tool’s portability, it can be mounted to a piece of 1/2" (12.7mm)
or thicker plywood which can then be clamped to your work support
or moved to other job sites and reclamped.
NOTE: If you elect to mount your planer onto a piece of plywood,
make sure that the mounting screws don’t protrude from the bottom
of the wood. The plywood must sit flush on the work support.
CAUTION: The mounting surface should not be warped or
otherwise uneven.
ASSEMBLY
WARNING: Do not remove guards (E, Fig. 2). Serious injury
could result.

accessories. An accidental start-up can cause injury.
