5. GENERAL DESCRIPTION
AND APPLICATIONS
The CE123N abrasive planer is a tool that will prove
useful to carpenters, fitters, restorers and shipwrights.
The planer is equipped with a front skid and a rear
base, whose adjustable radiuses enable the machine
to adapt for the planing of concave and convex
surfaces. It is especially designed for the shaving
and/or sanding of: wood, varnished wood, stratified
wood, softwood and such materials as fibreglass
and carbon fibre reinforced with epoxy, vinyl and
polyester resins.
For maximum performance, work with the machine
without forcing it, which reduces its speed and output.
The machine is equipped with a dust collector con-
nection which can be used for connection to our
AS182K, AS282K dust collector or any industrial
equivalent via the STANDARD DUST COLLECTOR
ATTACHMENT (ref. 6446073). For assembling the dust
collector connection, remove the chips outlet guide
A (Fig. 1) using screws B and fit the dust collector
connection in its place.
6. STARTING AND STOPPING THE MACHINE
The planer is equipped with an upwardly-engaging
safety button, which avoids the machine from being
started up accidentally.
To start up the machine, press down on the safety bu-
tton D while depressing the power button E (Fig. 2).
7. ADJUSTMENTS
7.1 SANDING OF CONCAVE SURFACES
Approximation sanding
Trace the reference line R for approximation sanding
(Fig. 3).
Set the cutting depth to "0" using knob G (Fig. 3).
Adjust the skid H and the base I (Fig. 3) to a radius
somewhat less than that which is going to be wor-
ked on, using knobs J and K (Fig. 3). Set the skid
to the desired cutting depth using knob G (Fig. 3).
Proceed to sand down irregularities, using the skid
as the supporting surface to begin the cut, working
successively on rough areas in order to approach
the reference line.
Finish sanding
In order to sand a constant thickness along the length
of a concave surface, or to give a continuous finishing
pass, proceed as follows:
Set the pass depth to "0" using knob G (Fig. 4). Loosen
knobs J and K that fasten the skid Hand the base I
(Fig. 4). Place the planer on the surface to be sanded,
pressing down on it so that the skid H and the base
I adapt to it, fixing them in place using knobs J and
K (Fig. 4). Ensure the parallelism of the skid and the
base by checking that the same level is indicated on
the guide marker L on the struts M (Fig. 4) on both
sides of the planer. Lastly, set the desired cutting
depth using knob G (Fig. 4).
To sand the piece, use the skid as the supporting sur-
face to begin the cut, gradually shifting the support
to the entire base as you progress.
7.2 SANDING OF CONVEX SURFACES
Approximation sanding
Trace the reference line R for approximation sanding
(Fig. 5).
Loosen knob J, set the cutting depth to "0" using the
knob G and fix the skid in place with knob J in the
horizontal position (Fig. 5).
Place the planer on the piece to be sanded. Give the
base I (Fig. 5) a slightly greater radius than that of the
piece and fix it in place using knob K (Fig. 5). Adjust
the desired cutting depth using the knob G (Fig. 5).
To sand irregularities by areas, use either the skid
or the base as the support surface to begin sanding,
depending on which is more convenient, and once on
the piece the position of the planer should be shifted
slightly so that the support is on the ends nearest
the sanding roller as depicted in (Fig. 5).
