Assembly
Fixing the Planer to a Surface
• The planer shall be fixed on a flat, leveled, stable surface
that will support safely the planer weight along with the
work pieces.
• The planer shall be secured to this surface using four
M8 x 2" Allen screws
• If the planer is not mounted onto a base, mount it onto
two pieces of wood to assure stability.
Blades Replacement and Mounting
CAUTION
• Wear safety gloves to handle the cutter
head and the blades to prevent cuts and lacerations in
your hands.
• To replace worn blades set the cutter head and turn it
manually until gaining access to one of the blades. To
carry out this operation the anti-woods guard shall not be
mounted.
• Loosen the blocking bar (A) turning the fastening
screws (B) in a clockwise direction. The blades (C) rest
against the spring (D) and will be expelled when the
blocking bar is loose.
• Remove the blade and turn it around so the sharp edge
that was making contact with the spring faces outwards
from the cutter head. If both sharp edges are damaged,
install a new blade.
• To mount back the blade in the cutter head, fix the
blocking bar (A) in the cutter head slot.
• Insert the blade in the slot so that it makes contact with
the springs (D) and turn the screws in a counter
clockwise direction but not tightening all the way. Make
sure the blade is facing the right direction as shown in the
image.
• Adjust the blade height to 1/16" using the gauge (E). Set
both bases firmly in the cutter head cylinder and making
contact with the blade. The gauge will push the blade
towards the springs into the adequate height. Tighten
firmly the screws to secure the blade in place and prevent
accidents.
CAUTION
• The blade height shall be calibrated
each time it is removed, no matter the reason.
CAUTION
• The blade edge is very delicate. Use
care not to damage the blade with the gauge.
• Make sure to set back the anti- chips guard after the
blades are set.
