OPERATION
Q
Apply downward pressure toward the rear handle as
you reach the end of the planed cut. This helps keep
the rear section of the planer base in contact with
the work and prevents the front of the planer from
gouging the cut.
WARNING
Be careful to avoid hitting nails during planing
operation; this action could nick, crack or damage
blades.
NOTE:
We suggest that you always keep an extra set
of blades on hand. As soon as the blades in your planer
show signs of becoming dull, replace them. The blades in
your planer are reversible and can be reversed until both
sides become dull.
CHAMFERING (Fig.6)
The planer is designed with a chamfering groove in the
front shoe to chamfer edges of boards as shown. Before
making a cut on good timber, practice cutting on scrap
lumber to determine the amount to be removed.
Follow these steps to chamfer.
Q
Clamp the work securely.
Q
Hold the front handle with your left hand and the rear
handle with your right hand.
Q
Place the chamfering groove on the surface to be cut.
Q
Start the planer and let the motor reach maximum
speed.
Q
Hold the planer firmly and push it forward into the
work, using a slow, steady motion.
Q
Apply downward pressure to keep your planer flat at
the beginning and the end of the work surface.
PLANING EDGES AND MAKING REBATE CUTS
The planer comes with an adjustable edge guide for
precision edge planing and rebate cutting. Attach the
edge guide to the planer for planing edges and attach the
edge guide to the left side for making rebate cuts.

REBATE CUTS (Fig.9)
Follow these steps to attach the edge guide for making
rebate cuts.
Q
Remove battery pack from tool.
Q
Attach the bracket to the left side of the planer using
the knob bolt.
Q
Attach the edge guide loosely to the bracket using the
knob nut and the carriage head bolt.
Q
Adjust the edge guide to the desired width for the
rebate cut.
Q
Tighten the retaining knob securely.
TO MAKE REBATE CUTS (Fig.9)
Follow the directions in the “Planing” section earlier in
this manual. Hold the edge guide firmly against the edge
of the work surface.
The depth of the rebate is determined by the depth of
the cut and the number of passes made along the work
surface. The maximum depth of the rebate cut is 12.7
mm and has to be cut in 2.5 mm passes or less, to
reach the desired depth. The width of the rebate cut is
adjustable by moving the adge guide.
