• Raise the worktop until you feel a slight resistance - felt when the wooden
element is barely touching the blade.
• Retract the workpiece and then lift the worktop up - turn it clockwise using the
lifting/lowering knob (12) and set the worktop to the correct processing height,
taking into account that one cut is 3 mm deep. Do not exceed the value of 2
mm of depth, as this may lead to kickback and/or damage to machine parts or
overheating the engine.
• When working with raw or warped pieces of wood, start with a shallow setting
- begin at 1 mm or ¼ turn of the adjustment knob.
• Longer pieces of wood should always be supported horizontally along the
entire workbench in relation to the knife when viewed from the left side of the
machine. The roller will automatically feed the workpiece to the blade. For
larger (longer) elements, provide them with adequate support at the exit from
the machine, i.e. behind the receiving worktop.
Thickness planer method:
• Pull the piece of wood through the thickness plane with the wider, processed
side facing downwards in relation to the edge and continue until the thickness
of the piece of wood is satisfactory.
• Then, pass the narrower side through the plough of the thickness piece
downwards in relation to the edge and continue processing until the thickness
is satisfactory.
