6. Applying firm downwards pressure and keeping the workpiece against the
fence, proceed to feed the work over the cutter. Do not feed too quickly.
IMPORTANT: When coming to the end of a piece, ALWAYS use the push stick
to finish - see Fig.8. This is an important safety point.
7. To switch OFF, simply press the red
button marked ‘O’ and close the
cover ensuring it is properly
latched.
When finished, remove all shavings
and sawdust from the machine and
surrounding area and dispose of
safely, accumulation of dust and
shavings is a fire hazard and should
not be allowed to build up.
NOTES:
1. In case of emergency, hit the switch cover firmly and quickly. The cover will
latch down and motor will be switched OFF.
2. The ON/OFF switch is a “No Volt Release” type, so that in the event of a
power failure the machine will not restart automatically once the power is
restored.
THICKNESSING
1. Lower the thicknessing table sufficiently for the workpiece to be inserted
beneath the cutter blade, ensuring the blade is at 6 o’clock. Work enters
from the left and exits at the right of the machine.
2. Raise the table until there is slight resistance. i.e. the work just touches the
blade.
3. Withdraw the workpiece, then wind the table upwards - turn clockwise,
using the Raise/Lower Table knob, to the appropriate cutting depth, noting
that one turn is equivalent to 3mm. Do not exceed 2mm depth of cut as
this could cause kickback, and/or damage to the components or
overheating of the motor.
NOTE:
It is advisable when working with rough or warped wood to make
very small depths of cut to begin with - 1mm should be sufficient.
4. Support the workpiece at the desired height, so that it is horizontal and
feed it into the cutter, from the left hand side of the machine. The rollers will
automatically feed the work past the kick-back pawls and into the cutter
blade. Ensure it is well supported at the outlet side.
DO NOT remove chips or shavings from the table until the machine has
stopped completely and is isolated from the mains supply.
