Electrical safety
When using power tools, you must observe the
follwing basic safety precautions in order to ensure
protection from electric shocks, injury and fire.
Read and follow all the instructions before using
this power tool. Look after the notes on safety.
Always check if your mains voltage
corresponds with the value on the type
plate.
Class II machine – Double insulation –
You don’t need any earthed plug.
When replacing old cables or plugs
Throw away old cables or plugs immediately as
soon as new ones have replaced these. It is
dangerous to put the plug of a loose cable into the
socket outlet.
When using extension cables
Only use an approved extension cable that is
suitable for the machine’s power. The cores must
have a diameter of at least 1.5 mm2. When the
extension cable is on a reel, unroll the cable in its
entirety.
3. Operation
Before setting up, repair or maintenance
of the appliance you must always turn off
the operating switch and pull out the
mains plug!
Before operation
• Checkiftheratedvoltageandratedfrequency
of the mains supply correspond to the details
of the type plate.
• Placetheworkbenchonastableandeven
base.
Operation
• Toadjusttheplaningdepth,turnthecontrol
knob (Fig. 1, A) in a clockwise direction. On
the control knob there is a pointer (Fig. 1, A)
which shows the planing depth in mm. Turn
the control knob until the desired planing
depth is shown.
Never alter the planing depth during an
operating cycle, otherwise this will result
in an uneven surface. To prevent
operating errors turn the control knob
back to “0” when planing is completed.
• Securetheworkpiecewithclampsorsimilar.
• Placethefrontsoleontheedgeofthework
piece in such a way that the planing tool does
not yet touch the work piece. The work piece
must be level.
• Nowinsertthemainsplugintothesocket.To
switch on, first slide the release button (Fig.1,
E) backwards, keep it pressed backwards
while you press the operating switch (Fig.1,
D). The planer is now switched on and you
can let go of the release button.
• Alwaysholdtheplanerwithbothhandsonthe
handles, so as to gain the best possible
control over your planing operations. Besides
you do not risk becoming in touch with the
moving parts.
• Whenthemachinehasreachedfullspeedit
can be pushed to the front over the work
piece. At the beginning of the planing
operation, put some pressure on the front and
at the end of the operation, on the rear of the
appliance. This results in the appliance
remaining flat on the work piece and prevents
the corners from getting rounded off.
• Toobtainalevelandsmoothsurfaceusea
greater planing depth when rough planing and
a lesser planing depth when planing a layer.
Hold the electric tool straight during the
operation, otherwise you will obtain an uneven
surface. After the operation switch off the
electric tool and remove the mains plug.
