6. Machine operation
Correct operating position:
To feed the workpiece into the
machine, position yourselves offset
to one side of the feed opening.
Workpiece handling:
Adjust the planer table to the
workpiece thickness.
Fig 5
Feed workpiece slowly and straight
into the thicknesser. It will then be
automatically fed through the
thicknesser.
Guide workpiece straight through
the thicknesser.
To remove the workpiece from the
machine, position yourselves offset
to one side of the outfeed opening.
Support long workpieces with
helping roller stands.
Operating notes:
Always use sharp cutter knives!
Feed with thicker workpiece end at
the front, hollow side downward.
Max. 2,5mm depth of cut.
If a workpiece gets stuck raise the
cutterhead by app. 1mm (1 crank
turn).
Plane the stock with the grain, if
possible (Fig 6).

You get a better surface when
planing several passes with less
chip removal.
Switch machine off if no further
planning is to be done immediately
afterwards.
Workpieces shorter than 250mm
may not be processed.
Machine max. 2 workpieces at one
time. Feed on both outer sides.
