operating this planer. Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in  
electric shock, fire and/or serious personal injury.  
1. ALWAYS use clamps or other practical ways to secure and support the  
workpiece to a stable platform. Holding the work by hand or against your body  
is unstable and may lead to loss of control.  
WORK AREA SAFETY  
1. Keep your work area clean and well lit. Cluttered workbenches and dark areas  
invite accidents.  
2. DO NOT force the tool. Use the correct tool and blade for your application. The  
correct tool and blade will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it is designed.  
2. DO NOT operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence  
of flammable liquids, gases, or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the  
dust or fumes.  
3. DO NOT use the tool if switch does not turn it “On” or “Off”. Any tool that  
cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.  
4. DISCONNECT the plug from the power source before making any  
adjustments, changing accessories or storing the tool. Such preventive  
safety measures reduce the risk of starting the tool accidentally.  
5. STORE idle tools out of the reach of children and other untrained persons.  
Tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.  
3. Keep bystanders, children and visitors away while operating a power tool.  
Distractions can cause you to lose control.  
4. Make your workshop childproof with padlocks and master switches. Lock  
tools away when not in use.  
5. MAKE SURE the work area has ample lighting so you can see the work and that  
there are no obstructions that will interfere with safe operation BEFORE using  
your planer.  
6. MAINTAIN tools with care. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained  
tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.  
7. CHECK for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, and  
any other condition that may affect the tool’s operation. If damaged, have the  
tool serviced before using. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained tools.  
PERSONAL SAFETY  
8. USE ONLY accessories that are recommended for this tool. Accessories that  
may be suitable for one tool may become hazardous when used on another tool.  
1. KNOW your power tool. Read the operator’s manual carefully. Learn the planer’s  
applications and limitations, as well as the specific potential hazards related to this tool.  
ELECTRICAL SAFETY  
2. STAY ALERT, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a  
power tool.  
!
WARNING: Do not permit fingers to touch the terminals of plug when  
3. DO NOT use tool while tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication.  
A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal  
injury.  
4. DRESS properly. DO NOT wear loose clothing or jewelry. Pull back long hair. Keep your  
hair, clothing, and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothing, or long hair can be  
caught in moving parts. Air vents often cover moving parts and should also be avoided.  
5. AVOID accidental starting. Be sure switch is in “OFF” position before plugging in.  
DO NOT carry tools with your finger on the switch. Carrying tools with your finger on the  
switch or plugging in tools that have the switch in the “ON” position invites accidents.  
installing or removing the plug from the outlet.  
1. Double insulated tools are equipped  
with a polarized plug (one blade is wider  
than the other).This plug will fit in a  
polarized outlet only one way. If the plug  
does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug.  
If it still does not fit, contact a qualified  
electrician to install a polarized outlet. Do  
not change the plug in any way.

SERVICE SAFETY  
1. If any part of this planer is missing or should break, bend, or fail in any way;  
or should any electrical component fail to perform properly: SHUT OFF the  
power switch and remove the planer’s plug from the power source and have the  
missing, damaged or failed parts replaced BEFORE resuming operation.  
EXTENSION CORDS  
Use a proper extension cord. ONLY use cords listed by Underwriters Laboratories (UL).  
Other extension cords can cause a drop in line voltage, resulting in a loss of power and  
overheating of tool. For this tool an AWG (American Wire Gauge) size of a least 14-gauge  
is recommended for an extension cord of 25-ft. or less in length. Use 12-gauge for an  
extension cord of 50-ft. Extension cords 100-ft. or longer are not recommended.  
Remember, a smaller wire gauge size has greater capacity than a larger number  
(14-gauge wire has more capacity than 16-gauge wire; 12-gauge wire has more capacity  
than 14-gauge). When in doubt use the smaller number. When operating a power tool  
outdoors, use an outdoor extension cord marked “W-A” or “W”. These cords are rated for  
outdoor use and reduce the risk of electric shock.  
2. Tool service must be performed only at a Sears Service Center. Service or  
maintenance performed by unqualified personnel could result in a risk of injury.  
3. When servicing a tool, use only identical replacement parts. Follow  
instructions in the maintenance section of this manual. Use of unauthorized  
parts or failure to follow maintenance instructions may create a risk of  
electric shock or injury.
