OPERATION
WARNING! To prevent serious injury, make sure all the instructions have been read and understood before
operating this tool. Before plugging the machine into the power supply, always check that the trigger switch and
trigger lock work properly.
USING THE SAFETY KICKSTAND
The safety kickstand (Fig. 1 - 1) on the bottom of the planer can be
engaged to help keep the blade from coming into contact with the
work surface when the planer is not in use.
To engage the safety kickstand during time of rest, slide the stand
until it springs out. To disengage the kickstand before operation,
push the stand into the slot and slide it until it locks in place.
CONNECTING THE CHIP EXTRACTION PORT
Wood dust can be hazardous to your health. Whenever possible,
connect your planer to a suitable dust extraction system or dust
bag through the dust extraction port. The included hose adaptor
converts the port size to 1-1/2 inch in diameter.
The wood shavings can be set to flow from either side of the tool to
suit the task at hand. Set the extraction guide switch (Fig. 2 - 1) to
point towards the extraction port (Fig. 2 - 2) that you wish the chips
to flow towards.
WARNING! Shavings may jam in the dust extraction port
when cutting damp wood. Never stick your finger into the dust
extraction port. Clean out the shavings with a stick, but only
when the cutter has stopped running and the tool has been un-
plugged from the power source.
SWITCHING ON AND OFF
The tool is equipped with a trigger lock to avoid unintentional start-
ups.
1. To turn the planer on, press the trigger lock (Fig. 3 - 1) and then
squeeze the trigger switch (Fig. 3 - 2).
2. To switch off, release the trigger switch.
