Voltage decrease of more than 10% will cause loss of power and
overheating. All D
EWALT tools are factory tested; if this tool does
not operate, check the power supply.
Operation
SWITCH
ALWAYS PICK UP YOUR PLANER BEFORE DEPRESSING THE
SWITCH. The planer is started by depressing the trigger in the
handle. To turn the planer OFF, release the trigger.
To LOCK the tool ON, for continuous use, hold the trigger
depressed and push in the locking button shown in Figure 1. Hold
the button in while gently releasing the trigger. To turn the tool OFF
from a locked-on position, depress and release the trigger once.
ADJUSTING PLANING DEPTH
Turn off and unplug Planer. Planing depth is infinitely variable
from 0 to .059" (1.5mm) using the DW677, from 0 to .157” (4.0mm)
using the DW678, and 0 to .098” (2.5 mm) using the DW680. This
is adjustable by rotating the knob on the top of the planer near the
front, as shown in Figure 3. As the knob is rotated clockwise from
the “O” position the cutting depth will increase from 0 to as much as
.157". Each click of the adjustment knob represents approximately
0.1mm of depth. It is recommended that test cuts be made in scrap
wood after each re-adjustment to make sure that the desired
amount of wood is being removed by the planer. Several shallow
passes will produce a smoother finish than one deep one.
PLANING
Hold the planer as shown in Figure 4 with one hand on the switch
handle and the other hand on the front handle. Place the front shoe
on the surface to be planed, making certain that the cutting blades
are not touching the surface. Push down firmly on the front handle
of the planer so that the front shoe is ABSOLUTLEY FLAT on the
work surface. Pull the trigger switch and allow the motor to reach
full speed before beginning to plane.
