Metabo HC 410 - Manual (Page 24)

Lower cutter guard assembly to rest
on the planing beds. Set cutterblock guard to width of
workpiece. A tolerance of 4 mm is
acceptable. With this setting the hands must not
pass over the cutterblock
13.3 Jointing Edges
The left hand always stays behind the cutterblock.
The right hand feeds the workpiece, but is repositioned before it passes the cutterblock.
14 Daily Safety Checks
The outfeed table must be exactly in
line with the cutting circle of the planer
blades. If too high, the workpiece will
hit the edge of the outfeed table. If set
too low, the cutterblock body can touch
the workpiece and throw it back at the
operator (increased danger of
kickback). See para. 15.4. The cutterblock guard must be ad-
justable without having to exert too
much force. Lubricate regularly. Re-
place broken or defective parts of the
cutter guard assembly at once. The
cutterblock guard must not slide when
locked in position. Replace lock lever
immediately if worn. The anti-kickback fingers of the recoil
lock must fall down by their own weight.
Clean recoil lock regularly to ensure
they move freely. The tips of the anti-
kickback fingers must be kept pointed
and sharp.
