operating correctly.
OPERATION
SWITCHING ON AND OFF (Fig.6)
The tool is equipped with a lock-
off button (2) to avoid unintentional
starting.
CAUTION:
Before plugging the
tool into the power point always
checking that the trigger switch
(1) and lock-off button (2) work
properly.
To switch on, keep the lock-off
button (2) depressed and squeeze
the trigger switch (1).
To switch off, release the trigger switch (1).
POWER-ON INDICATOR LIGHT
Your planer also has a “POWER-ON INDICATOR” red light. This red light is
always on when planer motor is plugged into power source.
PLANING
1. Rest the front shoe (10) flat on the workpiece surface without the blades
making any contact with the workpiece.
2. Switch on the tool and wait for the blades to reach full speed.
3. Move the tool gently forward, applying pressure on the front of the tool at
the start of planing and pressure at the rear of the tool towards the end of
the planing stroke.
4. Push the planer beyond the edge of the workpiece without tilting
it downwards.
NOTE:
Planing is easier if you incline the workpiece slightly away from you so
that you plane “downhill”.
