Assembly and adjustment
Prior to assembly and adjustment always
unplug the tool.
Adjusting the depth of cut (fig. B)
• Turn the planing depth adjustment knob (4) to
the required depth of cut.
One graduation corresponds to a depth of cut of
0.1 mm.
Attaching and removing the parallel fence
(fig. A & C)
The parallel fence (12) is used for optimum tool
control on narrow workpieces.
• Slacken the wing bolt (6).
• Fit the parallel fence (12) in the hole (7) from
either side.
• Tighten the wing bolt.
• To remove the parallel fence, proceed in
reverse order.
Removing reversible cutters (fig. D)
• Loosen the three bolts (13) with the spanner (14)
supplied.
• Flap the side guard (8) up.
• Slide the cutter (15) out of its holder.
• Reverse the cutter or replace it.
Always replace both cutters.
• Slide the cutter into the holder. Make sure that
the cutter is flush with the planing shoe (16).
• Tighten the three bolts (13).
Instructions for use
Always observe the safety instructions
and applicable regulations.
Prior to operation:
• Adjust the depth of cut.
• If necessary, fit and adjust the parallel fence.
Use sharp cutters only.
Switching on and off (fig. A)
Your planer is equipped with a safety switch to
prevent inadvertent operation.
• Switching on: press the lock-off button (2) and
subsequently press the on/off-switch (1).
• Release the lock-off button (2).
• Switching off: release the on/off-switch (1).
Always switch off the tool when work is finished
and before unplugging.
Planing (fig. A)
• Switch the tool on as described.
• Slowly move the planer over the workpiece.
• The feed speed should not be too high,
especially when using the maximum
depth of cut and planing width.
• Remember that several shallow cuts are
better than one deep cut.
• Switch the tool off.
Your planer is equipped with a parking shoe (11).
After switching off the tool can be put down without
waiting for the cutters to come to a standstill.
