PROPERLY DISPOSE OF ALL ACCUMULATED 
MATERIALS PER OSHA AND ENVIRONMENTAL 
PROTECTION AGENCY CODES AND 
REGULATIONS. MANY ACCUMULATED 
MATERIALS CAN BE CLASSIFIED AS 
HAZARDOUS AND REQUIRE PROPER DISPOSAL 
PROCEDURES. CONTACT THE APPLICABLE 
GOVERNMENT AND/OR PRIVATE AGENCIES FOR 
SPECIFIC INFORMATION.  
8) On job applications where the planing process 
creates a considerable amount of loose material, it can 
become almost impossible to determine proper cutting 
depths  and the extent of work already  accomplished. 
The problem is more compounded if a vacuum system 
is not used. Loose material should be removed by 
sweeping or other appropriate processes and the 
Floor Planer  again used until conditions warrant 
removing the accumulated material. 
 
Another side benefit of progressive housekeeping is 
increased V-belt life. The belt guard incorporates  a 
bumper that is designed to push excess material away 
from the bottom sheave  and minimize the amount of 
loose material that is picked up by the V-belt. Loose 
surface material can be extremely abrasive. A  V-belt 
operating in these materials is subject to accelerated 
wear and premature failure. 
 
STOPPING THE 8FP/E SERIES ELECTRICALLY 
POWERED FLOOR PLANER. 
1) Rotate the height adjustment lever located on the 
operator handle counterclockwise to raise the Floor 
Planer to its maximum height above the work surface. 
 
2) Stopping the Floor Planer is accomplished by 
moving the ON/OFF switch located on the operator 
handle to the OFF position. For safety considerations, 
it is also recommended that the extension cord be 
disconnected from both the Floor Planer  and electric 
power source whenever the Floor Planer is not used 
on the jobsite. 
STOPPING THE 8FP/G SERIES GASOLINE 
POWERED FLOOR PLANER. 
1) Rotate the height adjustment lever located on the 
operator handle counterclockwise to raise the Floor 

Planer to its maximum height above the work surface. 
 
2) Stop the engine in accordance with the instructions 
as described in the material supplied by the engine 
manufacturer. 

PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE CHECK LIST. 
Application: All Models 
The normal operation of the Floor Planer produces 
extreme dirt and dust, along with high levels of random 
vibration. Before operating the Floor Planer, the 
following service list should be accomplished. This list 
is for reference only and is not intended to be all 
inclusive. Other subject areas can be added  at the 
discretion of the owner(s) and/or operator(s): 
 
1) Check all fasteners for proper torque values. If a 
fastener requires retorquing, consult a torque chart for 
proper value. Properly discard  and replace  any worn 
fastener with a factory approved, replacement part. 
 
2) Check the V-belt for wear. Adjust or replace  as 
necessary. Check pulleys for wear  and proper proper 
alignment. Many loose materials created as a result of 
the operating processes can be extremely abrasive. 
 
3) Keep the Floor Planer clean. Wash the unit after 
each use. Keep loose material from accumulating 
around engine cooling fins. Determine that the interior 
sections of the frame  are free of material build-ups. 
Such build-ups can restrict the operating process and 
present  a potential safety hazard. Clean  and remove 
any material build-up from the Floor Planer after each 
use. 
4) Engine service life can be extended with proper air 
cleaner maintenance. Consult the material supplied by 
the engine manufacturer for specific information. 
 
5) Check for proper engine oil level. Always use clean, 
high quality engine oil. Change oil as required. Consult 
the material supplied by the engine manufacturer for 
specific information. 
 
6) Remove material  accumulations from the exterior 
surfaces of the electric motor. The electric motor is a 
totally enclosed, fan cooled (TEFC) design. Keep the 
fan fins clear of material accumulations to enhance air 
flow over the motor exterior for cooling purposes. 
 

 

 
DO NOT PERFORM PREVENTATIVE 
MAINTENANCE CHECKS WITH THE ENGINE OR 
ELECTRIC MOTOR RUNNING. STOP THE POWER 
SOURCE AND DISCONNECT THE SPARK PLUG
