Planing
Choose the desired cutting depth before operation.
Hold the planer with one hand on the switch and the other hand on the adjustment knob
(2).
Place planer
’s shoe on the surface to be planed. Making certain that the cutting blades are
not touching the surface.
Push down firmly on the adjustment knob of the planer. So that the planer
’s base is
completely flat on the work piece surface. Depress the lock-off button and push the trigger
switch. Allow the motor to reach full speed before starting to plane.
Move the tool slowly over the work piece and maintain downward pressure to keep the
planer flat. Be particularly careful to keep the tool flat at the beginning and the end of the
work piece surface.
ATTENTION: Never change the cutting depth while operating , to not create any
irregularities on the planed surface.
8.4
Rebating (Fig. 7)
The “L” depth guide (18) is used in conjunction with the parallel guide assembly (12) for
rebating applications.
The depth of rebating is determined by the depth of cut and the number of passes made
along the work-piece. The maximum rebate depth is 18 mm, made in several passes up to
3mm each time. The Maximum width of a rebate cut is 82mm and is determined by the
setting of parallel guide assembly (12).
Fit the “L” depth guide (18) and the parallel guide assembly to the planer on the opposite
sides of the tool.
Adjust the parallel guide assembly according to the required cutting width and tighten the
wing screw (8).
Place the tool on a flat surface with the rear base (16)
flat on the surface, adjust the “L”
depth guide so
the distance between the bottom surface of the “L” depth guide and the flat
surface equals the desired rebating depth, and tighten the wing screw (8)
of “L” depth
guide.
Set the adjustment knob of cutting depth (2) to a suitable depth.
Carry out the planing with the flat surface of parallel guide assembly kept tight against the
edge of your w
orkpiece. Repeat cutting until the bottom surface of “L” depth guide is level
with the work-piece surface.
8.5
Edge chamfering (Fig. 8)
Your planer has 3 precision machine grooves (11) in the front base (10) for planing along
a corner of the wood. It
’s a good idea to try a scrap piece of wood before doing final
pieces.
8.6
Dust extraction
When using the planer dust will be generated.
Always use the dust bag supplied with your product.
The dust extraction outlet can be connected to an external vacuum cleaner to extract while
operating.
