7. FITTING A DUST BAG
This accessory can be fitted by sliding the
dust bag inlet over the planer dust extraction
tube(5) as far as possible. The dust bag will
reduce the efficiency of the exhaust system
and the bag must be emptied frequently to
maintain the efficiency. To empty, open the zip
on the rear of the dust bag.
NOTE: This accessory can be used for
smaller jobs.
8. EXTERNAL DUST EXTRACTION
The dust extraction tube is best connected to a
suitable external dust extraction machine e.g.
vacuum cleaner.
WORKING HINTS FOR YOUR
PLANER
WARNING: Danger of kickback!
Apply the machine to the work
piece only when switched on.
1. STANDARD SURFACE PLANING
10
Set the desired cutting depth. Position the
front part of the base plate flat onto the work
surface. Switch the machine on and push your
planer forward and it will start cutting, always
maintain all of the base plate flat on the work
surface to prevent the cutting blade jumping.
Move the plane evenly over the work surface.
For most applications 0-3mm max cutting
depth will produce a good surface finish. It is
best to use small depths of cut and repeat the
planing process.
2. EDGE CHAMFERING
Using the V-groove in the base plate (9) you
can make a chamfer on the work piece edge
(See I). Guide the planer along the edge
and maintain a constant angle and force to
produce a good finish. You can control the
angle of the chamfer with your hands. Make a
test chamfer on a scrap piece of wood. Ensure
your work piece is clamped and supported
near the edge.
3. REBATING
You use the rebate guide (12) and the parallel
Planer
guide (8) accessories (supplied with your tool).
Fit these accessories to your planer. Set the
required rebate depth using the scale and the
mark on the planer housing next to the scale
(See Fig. J)Loosen locking screw(7) and adjust
the required rebating width(max 82 mm).
(See Fig. K)Tighten locking screw (7). Adjust
the desired rebating depth with the rebate
guide (12) accordingly (max 20mm) (See Fig.
L).Plane as often as necessary to achieve the
desired rebating depth. Make sure the plane is
guided with a lateral supporting pressure.
MAINTENANCE
Remove the plug from the socket before
carrying out any adjustment, servicing or
maintenance.

in a dry place. Keep the motor ventilation slots
clean. Keep all working controls free of dust.
Occasionally you may see sparks through the
ventilation slots. This is normal and will not
damage your power tool.
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be
replaced by the manufacturer, its service
agent or similarly qualified persons in order to
avoid a hazard.
