Dust Collection
Wood planer can generate a lot of wood shavings and dusts. Connect the dust collection system to this
machine. Minimum CFM requirement for this planer is 650 CFM at the dust port, which means your dust
collection system should have a rating greater than 650 CFM, as air friction from the ducts reduces the
effective CFM at the dust ports.
Wiring and Grounding
DANGER
Deenergize the electrical circuit before touching any enclosed, electrified parts.
Touching electrified part WILL result in serious personal injury or death.
WARNING
All electrical work must be done by a qualified electrician, and must meet the
electrical code in your area.
Make sure the voltage of your power circuit matches the specifications on the
nameplate of the machine, and the circuit is sized to supply power to the planer.
Wiring Instructions
This machine is not pre-wired with a plug. A 5-feet long 12AWG cord is
provided for connecting this machine to a power source. If you plan to
connect the machine directly to the electrical panel (“Hardwiring”).
Please ensure there is a readily accessible electrical disconnect near the
machine. Refer to section “Wiring Diagram” for wiring your machine to
a power source.
If you choose to connect this machine with a plug and a cord, please
use a UL/CSA listed plug that is sized to meet the amperage
requirement of your machine.
Break-in Period
Congratulations for getting this machine assembled and ready for a test run! Please set a reminder to
service this machine as it goes through the break-in period. Completing these services will maximize the
performance and longevity of your machine.
After 16 hours of operation: Adjust V-belt tension.
After 50 hours of operation: Replace gearbox oil.
IMPORTANT
Running this planer without dust collection system, or using a dust collection
system with inadequate suction, will cause dust and shavings to accumulate
inside the planer. This can damage the machine and cause other hazardous
situations. Check your dust collection system regularly to make sure it is not
jammed or filled up.
