Working hints for your planer
Warning: Danger of kickback! Apply the machine to the
work piece only when switched on.
STANDARD SURFACE PLANING
Set the desired cutting depth. Position the front part of the base plate
flat onto the work surface. Switch the machine on and push your
planer forward and it will start cutting, always maintain all of the base
plate flat on the work surface to prevent the cutting blade jumping.
Move the plane evenly over the work surface. For most applications
0-2mm max cutting depth will produce a good surface finish. It is
best to use small depths of cut and repeat the planing process.
EDGE CHAMFERING
Usi
ng the V-groove in the base plate (15) you can make a chamfer
on the work piece edge (See I). Guide the planer along the edge
and maintain a constant angle and force to produce a good finish.
You can control the angle of the chamfer with your hands. Make a
test chamfer on a scrap piece of wood. Ensure your work piece is
clamped and supported near the edge.
REBATING
You use the Rebate Depth Gauge (16) and the Rebate Parallel Guide
(17) accessories (supplied with your tool). Fit these accessories to
your planer. Set the required rebate depth using the scale and the
mark on the planer housing next to the scale (See J)Loosen locking
screw(21) and adjust the required rebating width(max 82 mm). (See
K)Tighten locking screw (21) Adjust the desired rebating depth with
the rebating depth gauge (16) accordingly (max 9mm) (See L).Plane
as often as necessary to achieve the desired rebating depth. Make
sure the plane is guided with a lateral supporting pressure.
Maintenance
Remove the plug from the socket before carrying out any
adjustment, servicing or maintenance.
Your power tool requires no additional lubrication or maintenance.
There are no user serviceable parts in your power tool. Never use
water or chemical cleaners to clean your power tool. Wipe clean with
a dry cloth. Always store your power tool in a dry place. Keep the
motor ventilation slots clean. Keep all working controls free of dust.
Occasionally you may see sparks through the ventilation slots. This is
normal and will not damage your power tool.
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the
manufacturer, its service agent or similarly qualified persons in order
to avoid a hazard.
