PLANER SAFETY WARNINGS
1. Wait for the cutter to stop before settling the tool
down.
An exposed rotating cutter may engage the surface
leading to possible loss of control and serious injury.
2. Hold the power tool by insulated gripping surface
only, because the cutter may contact its own cord.
Cutting a "live" wire may make exposed metal parts of the
power tool "live" and could give the operator an electric
shock.

APPLICATIONS
○
Planing various wooden planks and panels. (See
Fig. 1-4
)
PRIOR TO OPERATION
1. Power source
Ensure that the power source to be utilized conforms to the
power requirements speci
fi
ed on the product nameplate.
2. Power switch
Ensure that the power switch is in the OFF position. If the
plug is connected to a receptacle while the power switch
is in the ON position, the power tool will start operating
immediately, which could case a serious accident.
3. Extension cord
When the work area is removed from the power source.
Use an extension cord of su
ffi
cient thickness and rated
capacity. The extension cord should be kept as short as
practicable.
4.
Prepare a stable wooden workbench suitable for planing
operation. As a poorly balanced workbench creates a
hazard, ensure it is securely positioned on
fi
rm, level ground.
PLANING PROCEDURES
1. Adjusting the cutter depth
(1) Turn the knob in the direction indicated by the arrow in
Fig. 5
(clockwise), until the triangular mark is aligned with
the desired cutting depth on the scale. The scale unit is
graduated in millimeters.
(2) The cutting depth can be adjusted within a range of 0 –
1.5 mm.
2. Surface cutting
Rough cutting should be accomplished at large cutting
depths and at a suitable speed so that shavings are
smoothly ejected from the machine. To ensure a smoothly
fi
nished surface,
fi
nish cutting should be accomplished at
small cutting depths and at low feeding speed.
3. Beginning and ending the cutting operation
As shown in
Fig. 6
, place the front base of the planer on
the material and support the planer horizontally. Turn ON
the power switch, and slowly operate the planer toward
the leading edge of the material. Firmly depress the front
half of the planer at the
fi
rst stage of cutting, as shown in
Fig. 7
, depress the rear half of the planer at the end of
the cutting operation. The planer must always be kept
fl
at
throughout the entire cutting operation.
4. Precaution after
fi
nishing the planing operation
When the planer is suspended with one hand after
fi
nishing
the planing operation, ensure that the cutting blades (base)
of the planer do not contact or come too near your body.
Failure to do so could result in serious injury.
3. Use clamps or another practical way to secure and
support the workpiece to a stable platform.
Holding
the work by your hand or against the body leaves it
unstable and may lead to loss of control.
4.
Do not use the Planer with the blades facing upward (as
stationary type planer).
