Sealey SM1311 Instructions Download Page 4

WARNING!

Ensure you read, understand and apply Section 1 safety instructions before use.

5.2

Thicknessing

5.2.1

Set the desired height by turning the handle (Fig.B) using the graduated scale as a reference. 

5.2.2

One complete turn of the handle is equal to 3mm as indicated on the scale next to the feed port. 
It is better to use a cutting depth of between 0.5 and 1.5 mm (1/64”~1/16”) for best results. Trying to 
remove excessive amounts on a single pass will result in motor overload and dull the blades.

Note!

When thicknessing it is recommended to keep the feed table clean and free of sap. Apply a small 

amount of penetration spray and wipe over with a cloth.

!

WARNING! Do not remove chips or dust from the table while the machine is running, always disconnect from

the mains supply before attempting any kind of maintenance. Do not attempt to thickness short pieces of wood.

WARNING! 

Prior to doing any maintenance work, always disconnect from the mains. Any protective guards which have been removed must be 

mounted again after the maintenance work.

6.1

MACHINE CARE

The SM1311 is designed with a low maintenance
requirement. The bearings are greased for life.
6.1.1

Grease threaded spindles for the height 
adjustment of the thicknessing table.

6.1.2

The table surface should always be kept free of 
resin.

6.1.3

In order to prevent the motor from overheating, 
regularly check that no dust has accumulated on 
the ventilation apertures of the motor.
After a prolonged period of operation, users are 
recommended to have the machine checked by an
authorised service agent.

6.2

TOOL CARE

The cutter head, clamping devices, blade supports and
blades used on the machine must be kept free from resin
build up as a clean tool improves the cutting quality. This can
be done by soaking the blade supports and blades for 24
hours in paraffin, white spirit or commercially available resin
remover.

6.3

REPLACING BLADES

!

WARNING! 

Disconnect from power before servicing!

6.3.1

Unplug the planer from power source.

6.3.2

Loosen and remove four blade lock screws 
securing blade and blade clamp.

6.3.3

Lift blade and blade clamp from cutterhead.

6.3.4

Clean any sawdust and resin build up from cutterhead and blade clamp.

6.3.5

Place blade clamp against the replacement blade and replace in cutterhead.

6.3.6

Secure blade and blade clamp using four blade lock screws. Do not over-tighten.

NOTE! Check blade height and alignment.
6.3.7

To check blade alignment, set the table to the (0) position. Use a straight edge i.e metal ruler or set square and position it across the 
two tables. The blade should almost make contact with the ruler, check at either end of the blade and in the middle to ensure the blade 
is level. Loosen the blade lock screws and adjust height accordingly using the blade adjustment grub screws.

6.3.8

Repeat the procedure to replace the other blade.

6.3.9

Make sure all the blade lock screws are tight.
