STARTING AND

STOPPING PLANER

The on/off switch (A) Fig. 14, is located on the front of

the planer motor. To turn the machine “ON” move the

switch up to the “ON” position. To turn the machine

“OFF” move the switch down to the “OFF” position.

LOCKING SWITCH IN

THE “OFF” POSITION

When the tool is not in use, the switch should be locked

in the “OFF” position to prevent unauthorized use. This

can be done by grasping the switch toggle (B) Fig. 15,

and pulling it out of the switch, as shown. With the

switch toggle removed, the switch will not operate.

However, should the switch toggle be removed while the

machine is running, the switch can be turned “OFF”

once, but cannot be restarted without inserting the

switch toggle.
