Never put your hands under the cutter
block cover.
Always keep your hands well clear of
the cutter block
Do not pull the work piece back over
the unguarded cutter block
Always plane the work piece over its
entire length.
Adjust depth of cut with lever (G).
Loosen clamping knob (F) for
adjustment.

Operating notes:
The planer tables are precisely aligned
ex. works. They may only be loaded
when the table-cabinet locks are
engaged, otherwise they may be
damaged or precision of machine be
lost.
Always use sharp cutter knives!
The jointer fence must securely be
locked before machine use.
Check work piece for foreign objects
(nails, screws) and for loose knots.
Feed with thicker work piece end at the
front, hollow side downward.
Plane the stock with the grain, if
possible.
You get a better surface when planing
several passes with less chip removal.
Switch machine off if no further planing
is to be done immediately afterwards.
Cover the cutter block with the cutter
block guard.
Jointing and planing of short
workpieces may only be performed
with the help of tailor made push
woods and templates.
For the authorized use of the
machine observe the appendix A
“safe operation“
(on the last pages of this operating
manual)
