Functional Description
[Fig. A]: Always be sure that the tool is switched off and unplugged before adjusting or checking the function of the tool. In order to adjust the depth of cut
simply turn the knob (2) on the front of the tool so that the pointer (1) points the desired depth of cut.
[Fig. B]: The switch trigger (1) and the lock button or lock-off button (2) are used for switching and locking (or unlocking) the device. Before plugging in the tool,
always check whether the switch trigger actuates properly and returns to the "OFF" position when released. Never use a planer (or any kind of power tool) if
the switch trigger or the lock / lock-off button present functional problems.
✓ When the tool is equipped with a lock button:
CAUTION: The switch can be locked in "ON" position for ease of operator comfort during extended use. Apply caution when locking tool in "ΟΝ"
position and maintain firm grasp on the planer. To start the tool, simply pull the switch trigger. Release the switch trigger to stop. For continuous
operation, pull the switch trigger and then push in the lock button. To stop the tool from the locked position, pull the switch trigger fully, then re
lease it.
✓ When the tool is equipped with a lock-off button:
In order to prevent the switch trigger from being accidentally pulled, a lock-off button is provided. To start the tool, depress the lock-off button
and pull the switch trigger. Release the switch trigger to stop. Be careful not to pull the switch trigger hard without depressing the lock-off
button. This can cause switch breakage.
This electric planer has been designed for planing wood-based materials (beams, boards etc) while resting firmly on the workpiece, chamfering edges and / or
rebating. Read, understand and follow all safety rules and instructions before using this tool. Please refer to the figures in page 2 in order to familiarize yourself
with the major components of this tool before using it.
[Fig. C]: After a cutting operation , raise the back side of the tool and a foot (3) comes under the level of the rear base (2). This prevents the tool blade (1) from
getting damaged. Be careful, that the tool is switched off and unplugged before carrying out any work on the tool.
Tighten the blade installation bolts carefully when attaching the blades to the tool. A loose installation bolt can be dangerous. Always check whether they are
tightened securely.
Handle the blades very carefully. Use gloves or rags to protect your fingers or hands when removing or installing the blades.
Use the appropriate wrench to remove or install the blades. Failure to do so may result in over-tightening or insufficient tightening of the installation bolts
which could cause injuries.
