The tool has full-wave electronics with the follow-
ing features:
Smooth start-up
The smooth start-up ensures the router starts up
jolt-free.
Constant speed
The pre-selected speed remains constant whether
the machine is in operation or in neutral position.
The planing depth can be adjusted by turning the
rotary knob (2.1) (turn to the right = larger planing
depth, turn to the left = smaller planing depth).
The planing depth which has been set can be read
at the mark (2.3) for the rotary knob scale (2.2).
Adjustment by one scale mark corresponds to a
change in planing depth of 0.1 mm.
The max. planing depth is 4 mm (0.15''). So as no
to overload the machine, we recommend that a
maximum planing depth of 2.5 mm (0.1'') be set
with a plane width greater than 40 mm (1.57'').
Use only cutters which are sharp
and undamaged. Blunt cutters increase the dan-
ger of kick-back and reduce the planing quality
obtained.
Always disconnect the mains plug
from the socket before changing the cutter.
–
Loosen the locking screw (3.1) by approx. 2
revolutions with the Allan key (3.3) and remove
the cutter from the cutter shaft.
–
Clean the cutter slot before inserting the new
cutter to ensure a correct fi t.

Temperature control
To prevent overheating, the safety electronics
switches the machine off when it reaches a critical
motor temperature. Let the machine cool down
for approx. 3-5 minutes before using it again. The
machine requires less time to cool down if it is
running, i.e. in neutral position.
