3) Turn the depth adjustment handle clockwise until the 1.6 mm (1/16") mark aligns with the arrow.
4) Plane your workpiece. The final thickness should be 76.2 mm (3").
4.8 TURRET STOP (FIG. B, J)
♦ Your planer is equipped with a turret stop (20) , for planning multiple boards to the same pre-set depth.
Stops are set at 0", 1/4" (6.4 mm), 1/2" (12.7 mm), 3/4" (19 mm), 1" (25.4 mm) and 1-1/4"(32 mm).
4.9 TO SET THE MINIMUM DEPTH TO WHICH THE CARRIAGE CAN
TRAVEL WITH THE TURRET STOP
♦ Be sure the carriage is set above 1–1/4” (32 mm) before trying to set the turret stop.
♦ Turn the turret stop until the desired thickness setting shows.
♦ Unlock the carriage lock lever and lower the carriage.
♦ Plane the workpiece at desired increments until the correct final thickness is achieved.
5. BEFORE USE
♦ Before using the tool for the first time, it is recommended to receive practical information.
♦ Always check that the supply voltage is the same as the voltage indicated on the nameplate of the tool.
♦ Use suitable detectors to find hidden utility lines or call the local utility company for assistance (contact
with electric lines can lead to fire or electrical shock; damaging a gas line can result in an explosion;
penetrating a water pipe will cause property damage or an electrical shock).
♦ Do not work materials containing asbestos (asbestos is considered carcinogenic).
♦ Dust from material such as paint containing lead, some wood species, minerals, and metal may be
harmful (contact with or inhalation of the dust may cause allergic reactions and/or respiratory diseases to
the operator or bystanders); wear a dust mask and work with a dust extraction device when connectable.
♦ Certain kinds of dust are classified as carcinogenic (such as oak and beech dust) especially in
conjunction with additives for wood conditioning; wear a dust mask and work with a dust extraction
device when connectable.
♦ Follow the dust-related national requirements for the materials you want to work with.
♦ Do not clamp the tool in a vice.
♦ Use completely unrolled and safe extension cords with a capacity of 16 Amps.
WARNING
: Your heavy-duty portable thickness planner has been designed for professional wood
planning applications.
DO NOT
use under wet conditions or in the presence of flammable liquids or gases.
DO NOT
let children meet the tool. Supervision is required when inexperienced operators use this tool.
♦ Young children and the infirm. This appliance is not intended for use by young children or infirm persons

ELECTRICAL SAFETY
Only one voltage is applicable to this tool. Be sure to check that the power supply corresponds to the
voltage on the rating plate.
When the power cord is damaged, or if the replacement of the supply cord is necessary, have it sent to
SWAP service center for replacement to specially prepared cables.
USING AN EXTENSION CABLE
If an extension cable is required, use an approved 3
–core extension cable suitable for the power input of
this tool (see Technical Data). The minimum conductor size is 1.5 mm
2
; the maximum length is 30 m.
When using a cable reel, always unwind the cable completely.
