Preparation before starting the power tool

1. The workpiece must be clamped firmly on the fixture or worktable. The pressure plate that clamps the workpiece must not grow out of the worktable, and no one is allowed to stand within the maximum stroke of the machine tool. The tool should not protrude too long and should be clamped firmly.

2. When calibrating the workpiece, it is strictly forbidden to knock on metal objects or push the workpiece with a tool rest.

3. When the width of the workpiece exceeds the processing width of the single-arm planer, the offset of its center of gravity to the center of gravity of the worktable should not be greater than a quarter of the width of the worktable.

4. Adjust the stroke so that the tool does not touch the workpiece, and use the handle to shake the full stroke test. After the ram is adjusted, it should be locked and the handle should be removed at any time to avoid falling and hurting people.

5. When the bed surface or workpiece of the gantry planer protrudes too long, a protective railing should be set up, and it is forbidden to pass pedestrians or stack items in the railing.

6. Before planing a large workpiece, the gantry planer should check the reserved space between the workpiece and the gantry column and tool rest, and check whether the workpiece height limiter is installed correctly and firmly.

7. It is forbidden to stand people, store tools and other items on the work surface, bed surface and tool rest of the gantry planer. Operators must not cross the table.

8. The force acting on the handle of the planer should not exceed 8kg when the table moves horizontally, and should not exceed 10kg when moving up and down.

9. Pay attention to sharp edges and burrs when the workpiece is loaded and unloaded and turned over.
