ASSEMBLY & ADJUSTMENTS
MOUNTING THE PLANER TO A WORK SURFACE
The planer should always be mounted to a stable, level bench
or table in a well-lit area. Make sure there is plenty of room for
maneuvering the workpiece through the entire cut. Neither the
operator nor bystanders should stand in line with the workpiece
while the tool is operating.
1. Mount the planer to a workbench or tool stand using four
bolts, four flat washers, and four hex nuts (not included) through
the mounting holes on the base (Fig. 5). There are eight mount-
ing holes – one set of two holes at each corner.
NOTE:
We recommend the WEN
6588T
or
MSA658
Planer Stand
for both stability and easy transportation around the workshop.

OPERATION
ON/OFF SWITCH
The ON / OFF switch (Fig. 6 - 1) is located on the front of the
planer motor. To turn the planer ON, make sure the safety key
is inserted, and flip the switch to the up position. To turn the
planer OFF, flip the switch to the down position.
SWITCH LOCKOUT
Remove the yellow safety key (Fig. 6 - 2) to engage child-safety
lock and prevent unwanted start-ups. To lock the switch, flip the
switch to the OFF position and disconnect the planer from its
power source. Pull the safety key out (Fig. 6 - 2). The machine
cannot be turned ON with the key removed. To turn the machine
back ON, slide the key into the slot on the switch until it snaps
into place, then flip the switch up.
WARNING!
Do not connect planer to the power source
until all assembly steps have been completed.
CAUTION!
Be sure to turn the planer off prior to resetting the circuit breaker to avoid unintentional start-up
of the planer.
NOTE:
The key can be removed from the switch while in the ON position. This allows for the machine to be turned
OFF, but prevents it from being turned back ON while the key is removed.
CIRCUIT BREAKER
This planer is equipped with a circuit breaker to protect the motor (Fig. 6 - 3). The breaker will automatically shut
the planer off when excessive current is drawn. If the breaker is tripped, turn the planer off, wait a moment to allow
the breaker to cool down, and reset the circuit by pressing the button. If the button pops back out, wait a few more
minutes to allow it to cool down more. Reduce the depth of cut, reset the breaker, and try again.
