Transporting the Planer (Fig A)

WARNING: For your own safety, it is recommended
that two people carry this machine or serious injury
couldresult.
When moving your planer, hold it by the side carrying
handles
2
or by the base handles
3
at the base of theplaner.
Bench Mounting (Fig. A)
To facilitate bench mounting, two different sized holes
4
are provided on the four corners of your planer as shown in
FiguresA. If mounting the planer with bolts, use the larger
holes. If mounting the planer with nails or screws, use the
smaller holes. It is not necessary to use both sets ofholes.
Always mount your planer firmly to a secure surface to prevent
movement. To enhance the tool’s portability, it can be mounted
to a piece of 12.7mm (1/2") or thicker plywood which can then
be clamped to your work support or moved to other work areas
andreclamped.
NOTE: If you elect to mount your planer to a piece of plywood,
make sure that the mounting screws don’t protrude from
the bottom of the wood. The plywood must sit flush on the
worksupport.

CAUTION: The mounting surface should not be warped or
otherwiseuneven.
ASSEMBLY AND ADJUSTMENTS

WARNING: Do not remove guards (
12
, Fig.B). Serious
injury couldresult.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal
injury, turn tool off and disconnect tool from power
source before making any adjustments or removing/
installing attachments or accessories.
To Attach the Depth Adjustment Crank
Handle (Fig. A)
1. Remove the screw located in the crank handleshaft.
2. Insert the crank handle
5
over theshaft.
3. Secure in place with the screw and T-wrench
7
provided.
Dust Ejection Ports (Fig. C)
Your planer comes with a dust ejection port. The round port
14
as shown in Figure. C is for use with a dust collector hose no less
than 200mm (8").
To Set Up Dust Ejection (Fig.C)

WARNING: Do not operate your planer without the
dust ejection port locked into place. Do not insert
anything into the dust ejection chute unless the
planer is unplugged and you are clearing a clog or
obstruction in the unit. Do not get your face or eyes
near the dust ejection port when the planer is in
operation. Serious injury couldresult.

WARNING: A hose no less than 200 mm (8") in length
MUST be used on the dust ejection port in order to
avoidinjury.

WARNING: Chips are ejected at significant velocity.
Keep hands and face clear of dust ejectionport.
1. Select the port
14
.
2. Depress the lock button
15
on the chip ejection chute
13
.
3. Slide the notches in the dust port over the pins on the chip
ejection chute.
4. Rotate the port until the button engages the dust ejection
chute and locks in place.
To Remove the Dust Ejection Port
1. Use the T-wrench to depress the lock button
15
on the
dustchute.
2. Twist the port until the pins are disengaged from the
notches on theport.
3. Pull the dust ejection port off of the dustchute.
OPERATION

WARNING: Always observe the safety instructions and
applicableregulations.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal
injury, turn tool off and disconnect tool from power
source before making any adjustments or removing/
installing attachments or accessories.
On/Off Switch (Fig. A, D)
The on/off switch switch
6
of your saw bench offers multiple
advantages.
• No-volt release function: should the power be shut off for
any reason, the switch has to be deliberatley reactivated.
• To switch the machine on, press the green start button.
• To switch the machine off, press the red stop button.
Depth Adjustment
Depth Adjustment Scale (Fig.A, E)
The depth adjustment scale
8
, located on the right front of
your planer, indicates the finished thickness of your workpiece.
One rotation of the depth adjustment crank is equal to 1.6mm
(1/16"), half rotation is equal to 0.8mm (1/32"),etc.
Depth Adjustment Crank (Fig. A, E)
Turning the crank
5
clockwise lowers the cutterhead. Turning
the crank counterclockwise raises thecutterhead.
Turret Stop (Fig. F)
Your planer is equipped with a turret stop
9
for repetitive
planing at pre-set depths. Stops are set at 3mm (1/8"), 6.5mm
(1/4"), 12.5 (1/2"), 19mm (3/4"), 25.5mm (1"), and 32mm
(1-1/4").
To Set the Minimum Depth to Which the Carriage
Can Travel with the Turret Stop
1. Be sure the carriage is set above 32mm (1-1/4") before
trying to set the turretstop.
2. Turn the dial on the front left of the planer until the desired
thickness setting aligns with the red indicator, then lower
thecarriage.
