GENERAL PLANING OPERATIONS:
Place the front planing base on the work
piece. With the depth set, start the planer
and allow the blades to run up to fuIl speed.
Move the machine across the work piece, en-
suring the pass is smooth, even and gentle to
obtain the optimum cut.
NOTE: Moving the planer too fast or back-
wards will cause the machine to bounce and
produce a poor finish.
IMPROPER USE
The functions and use of this are those ex-
clusively indicated in this manual. Wait fer
complete run-down before putting the tool
aside.
IMPORTANT: The replacement blades must
always be reversed or replaced as a pair.
BLADES
The machine is equipped with double edged
HSS blades. For optima! long term perfor-
mance, periodically check the conditíon of the
blades and if necessary replace them.
Only use perfectly sharpened blades. Only
use recommended blades and blade holders.
BLADE REPLACEMENT/ADJUSTMENT
IMPORTANT: Only use sharp blades. Switch
off the power supply and disconnect the
mains lead before carrying out any mainte-
nance operations.
WARNING: The blades are extremely
sharp, so care must be taken at al! times.
Tighten the bolts in the
direction shown with the
spanner which will re-
lease the tension on the
blade. When the blade is
loose slide it out.
Loosen the two
screws anticlockwise un-
til they are flush with
the surface of the clamp
block.

Screws
grub
Insert the new blade
making sure of the cor-
rect orientation, ie. the
groove down the back of
the blade is NOT against
the clamp block.
Adjust the bolts to grip the blade loosely so
that it stays in place, but still allowing ease
of movement for setting up the blade height/
level.
Adjust the front
plate so that it is lower
than the rear plate and
cutter block to avoid in-
terference.
Place a straight edge
across the rear sole plate.
By screwing the grub screws cIockwise equal-
ly, raise the blade up gradually.
Keep checking the blade height by moving
the cutter block round by hand to see it the
blade scrapes on the straight edge.
Set the blade so that it just touches the
straight edge. Make this check at three
points across the blade to ensure a correct
and equallevel is achieved. When height ad-
justment is complete, ensure the blade is ad-
justed level with the right hand side of the
sole p/ate for rebating. Tighten the three
bolts gripping the blade securely.
WARNING: After having completed this
operation, ensure that the blade and blade
support are securely fastened in the cutter
block, if not, serious accidents may occur.
WARNING: Due to the forces and vibra-
tion which are experienced by the cutter
block, it is recommended that a suitable
thread locking compound be applied to the
blade adjustment grub screws. For this rea-
son it is also important before each use to
inspect the blade set up.
BELT REPLACEMENT
Turn off the machine and disconnect the
power source before performing any main-
tenance.
To replace the belt, remove the cover to ac-
cess the belt and pulleys.
