Additional Safety Rules - Makita 1923B Betriebsanleitung

12. Secure work
Use clamps or a vise to hold work. It's safer than
using your hand and it frees both hands to oper-
ate tool.
13. Don't overreach
Keep proper footing and balance at all times.
14. Maintain tools with care
Keep tools sharp and clean for better and safer
performance. Follow instructions for lubricating
and changing accessories. Inspect tool cords
periodically and, if damaged, have repaired by
authorized service facility. Inspect extension
cords periodically and replace if damaged. Keep
handles dry, clean and free from oil and grease.
15. Disconnect tools
When not in use, before servicing, and when
changing accessories such as blades, bits and
cutters.
16. Remove adjusting keys and wrenches
Form the habit of checking to see that keys and
adjusting wrenches are removed from tool before
turning it on.
17. Avoid unintentional starting
Don't carry plugged-in tool with finger on switch.
Be sure switch is off when plugging in.
18. Outdoor use extension cords
When tool is used outdoors, use only extension
cords intended for use outdoors and so marked.
19. Stay alert
Watch what you are doing. Use common sense.
Do not operate tool when you are tired.
20. Check damaged parts
Before further use of the tool, a guard or other
part that is damaged should be carefully checked
to determine that it will operate properly and per-
form its intended function. Check for alignment of
moving parts, binding of moving parts, breakage
of parts, mounting, and any other conditions that
may affect its operation. A guard or other part
that is damaged should be properly repaired or
replaced by an authorized service center unless
otherwise indicated elsewhere in this instruction
manual. Have defective switches replaced by
and authorized service center. Do not use tool if
switch does not turn it on and off.
21. Warning
The use of any other accessory or attachment
other than recommended in this operating
instruction or the catalog may present a risk of
personal injury.
22. Have your tool repaired by an expert
This electric appliance is in accordance with the

ADDITIONAL SAFETY RULES

1. Rags, cloth, cord, string and the like should
never be left around the work area.
2. Avoid cutting nails. Inspect for and remove
all nails from the workpiece before operation.
3. Handle the blades very carefully.
4. Be sure the blade installation bolts are
securely tightened before operation.
5. Hold the tool firmly with both hands.
6. Keep hands away from rotating parts.
7. Before using the tool on an actual workpiece,
let it run for a while. Watch for vibration or
wobbling that could indicate poor installation
or a poorly balanced blade.
8. Make sure the blade is not contacting the
workpiece before the switch is turned on.
9. Wait until the blade attains full speed before
cutting.
10. Keep at least 200 mm away from the tool at all
times.
11. Always switch off and wait for the blades to
come to a complete stop before any adjust-
ing.
12. Never stick your finger into the chip chute.
Chute may jam when cutting damp wood.
Clean out chips with a stick.
13. Do not leave the tool running. Operate the
tool only when hand-held.
14. When leaving the planer, switch off and set it
with the front base up on a wooden block, so
that the blades do not contact anything.
15. Always change both blades or covers on the
drum, otherwise the resulting imbalance will
cause vibration and shorten tool life.
16. Wait for complete run-down before putting
the tool aside.
17. Use only Makita blades specified in this man-
ual.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Removing or installing planer blades
Important:
• Always be sure that tool is switched off and
unplugged before removing or installing the blade.
• Use the following planer blades.
Part Nos. 793004-6 793007-0 793322-2
*P-04226 *P04282 *P-04298
*820044-1 *820045-1 *820043-1
Blades with * mark are available in European coun-
tries only. Consult your dealer or the Makita Service
Center when purchasing blades.
For tool with standard planer blades
(Fig. 1, 3 & 4)
To remove the blades on the drum, unscrew the three
installation bolts with the socket wrench. The drum
cover comes off together with the blades.
To install the blades, first clean out all chips or foreign
matter adhering to the drum or blades. Use blades of
the same dimensions and weight, or drum oscillation/
vibration will result, causing poor planing action and,
eventually, tool breakdown.
