OPERATION
Beforemakingacut,allowthemachinetorunuptofullspeed.If
the machine makes any unusual noise or vibrates excessively,
STOP the machine immediately and investigate the cause
andrectify.IfthecausecannotbeidentifiedDONOTusethe
machineandcontactyournearestservicecentre.
Measurethethicknessofthematerialtobeplaned.Usingthe
height adjustment handle and the height scale set the machine
to the thickness of the material (Pic.6). Before offering the
material into the machine carefully check the material for Nails
Screws or any other foreign material which could damage the
bladesandinjuretheoperator.
For the initial cut it is recommended that the depth of cut should
be 1mm. Additional cuts can be made up to a maximum of
2.5mmuntilthedesiredthicknessisachieved.
TIP: Taking smaller cuts will prolong the life of the blades and
themachineandwillresultinabetterfinish.
POWERED IN FEED ROLLER
Thismachineisfittedwithapoweredinfeedroller.Itisimportant
that you allow the machine to reach the desired speed then
carefullyfeedthematerialintothemachine.Allowthepoweredin
feedrollertodrawthetimberintothemachine.DoNotforcethe
work piece as this could overload the machine causing damage
tothemotor.Supporttheworkpieceatalltimesespeciallyat
thestartandendofthecut,thiswillpreventanunevenfinish.If
the work piece is long, ensure that it is supported as it exits the
machine.Whenthedesiredthicknessisachieved,switchoffthe
machineandremovetheplugfromthemainssupply.
Whenfinishedwiththemachineremoveallshavingsanddust
from the machine and surrounding work area and dispose of
them safely as an accumulation of shavings and dust can cause
afireHazard.
BLADE REPLACEMENT
Note: Be always careful when handling with blades: planer
blades are sharp even if they are not planned and require
sharpeningorreplacement.
BLADE REMOVAL (PICS.7 TO 10)
When the blades require replacing, both blades must be
replacedatthesametimeandmustbeofthesametype.Only
bladesrecommendedbythesuppliershouldbeused.
Removethechipcollectorcoverbyremovingthe4xretaining
screwsandwashers(Pic.7).
WARNING: Ensure that the machine is switched off and
disconnected from the mains supply before carrying out any
cleaningmaintenanceorbladereplacement.
Loosen the 6x blade retaining bolts using the wrench provided
(Pic.8).Removethebladecompletewiththeblademounting
plate(Pic.9).Separatethebladefromtheblademountingplate
(Pic.10/A).Carefullyrotatethespindlethrough180°andrepeat
theprocessfortheotherblade.
REFITTING THE BLADES (PIC. 10/B)
Before re-assembly of the blades ensure that all mating
surfaces and threaded holes are clean and free from dust and
foreign objects
Replacementofthebladesisareversalofthebladeremoval
procedure.
BLADE SHARPENING
Note: due to the size of the blades it is recom mended that
the services of a professional blade sharpening company be
employed.
CARBON BRUSH REPLACEMENT (PICS.11&12)
Carbonbrushesmustalwaysbereplacedasapair.Onlyuse
brushesrecommendedbythesupplier.
When the brushes become worn or damaged and require
replacing.
Locate the two brush caps located on either side of the motor
housingsee(Pic.11).
Unscrew the covers and remove the worn brushes, replace
the brushes with the spare set provided and replace the cover
(Pic.12).
BELT REPLACEMENT (PICS.13&15)
The drive belt is located behind the lateral cover on the side of
theheightadjustmenthandle.Removetheheightadhustment
handle.Removethe4hexagonalscrewsfixingthetopcover
(Pic.13)andliftthetopcovertogetherwithtwolateralcovers.
Replacethehandleontheliftingpinandlifttheplaninggroupas
muchaspossibletoremoveitfromtwowormscrews.Remove
the handle again and extract the planing group from 4 cylindrical
guides(Pic.14).
Ease the belt off the small pulley by using side pressure and
rotatingthespindleatthesametime(Pic.15).
IMPORTANT! as the spindle houses the blades it is
recommendedthatsuitableglovesareused.
CAUTION!Careshouldbetakentoensurethatfingersdonot
becometrappedbetweenthebelt andpulley.Fitting thenew
beltisa reversaloftheaboveprocedure.Ensurethatall the
groovesinthebeltarelocatedinthegroovesinbothpulleys.
Now replace the planing group and top cover together with two
lateral covers, inverting the operations, and ensure that all the
screwsaretightened.
IMPORTANT
NOTE: Asaprecautionwhenfirststartingthemachineafterbelt
orbladereplacement,allowthemachinetorunfor5-10seconds
