Protect your eyes
Always wear appropriate eye protection when using cutting tools
Spectacles are not designed to offer any protection when using this product; normal
lenses are not impact resistant and could shatter
Protect your hearing
Always wear suitable hearing protection when tool noise exceeds 85dB
Protect your breathing
Ensure that yourself, and others around you, wear suitable dust masks
Protect your hands
Do not allow hands to get close to the cutting wheel or blades. Use a suitable push stick
for shorter workpieces with appropriate power tools
Be aware of others around you
It is the responsibility of the user to ensure that other people in the vicinity of the work
area are not exposed to dangerous noise or dust and are also provided with suitable
protective equipment
Hidden objects
Inspect the workpiece and remove all nails and other embedded objects before cutting
Do not attempt to cut material that contains embedded objects unless you know that the
cutting tool fitted to your machine is suitable for the job
Walls may conceal wiring and piping, car body panels may conceal fuel lines, and long
grass may conceal stones and glass. Always check the work area thoroughly before
proceeding
Beware of projected waste
In some situations, waste material may be projected at speed from the cutting tool. It is
the user's responsibility to ensure that other people in the work area are protected from
the possibility of projected waste
Fitting cutting tools
Ensure cutting tools are correctly and securely fitted and check that wrenches / adjusters
are removed prior to use
Only use cutting tools recommended for your machine
Do not attempt to modify cutting tools
Ensure blades are sharp, in good condition and correctly fitted
Do not attempt to resharpen blades that are not suitable for resharpening, these may
include specially hardened blades or blades made from hardened alloys typically
containing tungsten
Blades that can be resharpened should be resharpened only according the blade
manufacturer's instructions. These may include a limited number of times the blade can
be resharpened
Sharpened blades should be more thoroughly inspected before use and replaced
immediately if there is any doubt about their condition and suitability for use
In the event blades encounter an embedded object in use that the blades are not suitable
for, blades should be replaced immediately
Direction of feed
Always feed work into the blade or cutter against the direction of movement of the blade
or cutter
Beware of heat
Cutting tools and workpieces may become hot in use. Do not attempt to change tools until
they have been allowed to cool completely
Control dust / swarf
Do not allow dust or swarf to build up. Sawdust is a fire hazard, and some metal swarf
is explosive
Be especially careful when cutting wood and metal. Sparks from metal cutting are a
common cause of wood dust fires
Where possible, use a dust extraction system to ensure a safer working environment

Unpacking Your Tool
• Carefully unpack and inspect your tool. Fully familiarise yourself with all its features and
functions
• Ensure that all parts of the tool are present and in good condition. If any parts are missing
or damaged, have such parts replaced before attempting to use this tool

Before Use

WARNING: Always disconnect this tool from the power supply before attaching or
removing accessories, or making any adjustments.
Adjusting the front handle
1. Hinge out the Front Handle Lock Lever (9) (Image A) and move the Front Handle (1) to one
of four positions to best suit the task (Image B)
2. Hinge back lever to secure the Front Handle in the selected position
Note: If necessary, the lever action mechanism can be adjusted using the Front Handle Set
Screw (13) (Image C).
Combined parallel and bevel fence guide
1. Fit the Combined Parallel and Bevel Fence Guide (20) to the base by screwing the Fence
Attachment Knobs (21) into the Fence Attachment Points (7) and (10) (Image D)
2. Loosen the two wing nuts and set the angle of the fence if you wish to use it as a guide for
making bevel cuts (Image E)
3. When set at right angles to the planer base, the fence provides a guide to help control
the planing action
Note: The fence can be fitted to either side of the base.
Note: The angle graduations marked on the fence are approximate only. For accurate bevel
cutting it is necessary to measure the angle of the fence, make a trial cut and adjust if
necessary.
Shavings extraction
IMPORTANT: It is highly recommended that a workshop vacuum cleaner or other dust
extraction system is used with this product. The tool produces a large amount of waste
material in use and an active extraction system is required for optimal operation.
1. The Dust/Chip Extraction Port (18) allows connection to a vacuum dust extraction system
2. Using the Dust Extraction Adaptor (19) permits a dust extraction system to be connected to
the Dust/Chip Extraction Port (Image F)
3. To fit the Dust Extraction Adaptor, insert it into the Dust/Chip Extraction Port and twist it
clockwise until it locks into position
Adjusting the depth of cut
Note: The Power Indicator (2) lights up when the tool is connected to a live mains supply. This
is a quick indicator of a live power connection to the tool for normal use but it is important
also to check manually that the power tool is disconnected from the mains when making
adjustments or installing or removing blades.
1. Rotate the Depth Adjustment Knob (12) clockwise for a deeper cut and anti-clockwise for
a shallower cut
2. The numbers on the ring under the Depth Adjustment Knob indicate the depth of cut. There
are 8 click stop positions from 0.25-2mm that increment by 0.25mm
3. If it is necessary to plane to a precise depth, plane a scrap piece of wood, measure the
difference in thickness and adjust the setting if necessary
4. To check accuracy and tolerance of the Movable Front Base (11) set the depth adjustment
knob to the '0' position so the blade can be measured against the Fixed Rear Base (6) and
Movable Front Base (11). The Fixed Rear Base, blade and Movable Front Base should be at
the same level at the '0' position
5. After use, always move the depth adjustment knob to the 'P' parked position. This protects
the blade by moving the Movable Front Base so that the blade is not in contact with the
surface the planer is resting on
