A:  Thank you for your question on the KP0800K planer. Unfortunately, the case is not sold separate.

A:  I would start with a sander and work on the warped spot. This would take off a layer all the way across and could end up taking off too much. Start with sander and do a little at a time to ensure you don’t take to much.

A:  "Thank you for you question KP0800K Planer. Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock. As far as rusting the tool will not rust but using it in wet conditions is not recommended."

A:  Most pressure treated lumber is southern pine. Southern yellow pine is about half as hard as red oak. This planer handles red osk with ease, in my experience. I would clean the llaner well after use though as the treatment chemicals corrode some metals. Maybe make a pass ot two on some non treated stock and then blow it out. Also take respiratory cautions.

A:  I didn’t use it on pressure wood but I don’t see why it couldn’t. It’s pretty powerful.

A:  This is a corded planer. Not sure what you mean about generator.
