1. Turn the depth adjustment handle to
raise the blade and allow sufficient
space for the workpiece.
2. Place the workpiece below the blade
and lower the blade to the surface of the
workpiece.
3. Without adjusting the height, remove
the workpiece. Then lower the blade
to the desired planing depth.
4. Start the machine and gently feed the
workpiece into the machine using the
provided push stick.
WARNING!
ALWAYS USE THE PUSH STICK PROVIDED
INSTEAD OF YOUR HANDS TO FEED THE WORKPIECE.
WARNING!
DO NOT FORCE THE WORKPIECE INTO THE
THICKNESSER. THE MACHINE AUTOMATICALLY PULLS
THE WORKPIECE.
Planing Tips
• The length of the workpiece should not be less than 153mm
long.
• The thickness of workpiece should not be less than 6mm +
desired planing depth.
• Do not remove more than 3mm of material at a time.
• When working with hardwood, do not remove more than 2.5mm
at a time to avoid overloading the machine.
• Removing material gradually over several passes will result in a
smoother surface finish.
• The surface finish can be affected by the hardness, moisture
and fibre content of the timber. The blade sharpness, machining
direction and planing depth can also affect the surface finish.
• Feed material into the machine along the grain where possible
for best results.
• Always test any adjustments on scrap pieces of timber before
attempting on your workpiece.
• If not working in well ventilated areas, connect a dust extraction
unit, such as a vacuum cleaner, to the dust extraction port to
create a cleaner work environment. Use the dust extraction
adapter if required.

OPERATION
Adjusting The Planing Depth
The planing depth can be raised or lowered 1.5mm with every
full rotation of the handle.
Always test the setting on a scrap
workpiece first.
1. Turn the depth adjustment
handle and use the planing
thickness guide to determine
the required height.
Switching The Tool On/Off
1. Press the “i” button to start the machine.
2. Press the “0” button to stop the machine.
Overcurrent Protection
If the planing material gets stuck, the tool is overloaded or there is
a short, the overcurrent protection will automatically shut off the
machine to prevent damage.
Follow the steps below to reset the machine after an overload.
1. Press the “0” button to ensure the machine
does not start up again unexpectedly, then
disconnect the power supply to the machine.
2. Push the overload reset button and allow
the machine to cool down.
3. Remove any jammed material or loose debris that may have
caused the overload.
4. Restart the machine normally and resume use.
WARNING!
DO NOT CONTINUE USING THE TOOL IF
THE OVERCURRENT PROTECTION ACTIVATES AGAIN
IMMEDIATELY ON RESTART.
