The following basic rule applies for planing wood: Optimum
surface quality will be obtained by pressing on the front planer
platen when starting to plane and on the rear planer platen
(end of workpiece) when continuing or finishing planing.
If the parking device should be found obstructive during special
planing work it can be swung back out of the way and locked
in position (8.2).
Always ensure, that when setting the machine
down on a surface the parking device is correctly extended
(8.1).
Rebating
The planer head is supported by a bearing on one side only,
thus allowing rebates of unlimited size to be cut with the
planer. For this purpose, the protective cover (9.2) must be
folded away. To do this, press the lever (9.1) first forwards
and then to the left. This raises the protective cover over the
planer head to the machine's housing, thus exposing the face
of the planer head.
At the end of work the protective cover automatically returns
to its position over the planer head.
Chamfering
The front planer platen is equipped with a 90° V groove (9.3)
to allow the chamfering of workpiece edges. This V groove is
2 mm deep, thus producing a 2 mm edge chamfer with the
chip thickness setting 0 mm.

Bench-mounted operation

The planer can be operated bench-mounted in conjunction
with the bench-mounting device SE-HL and the angle guide
WA-HL. Detailed instructions are supplied with each of these
accessories.
The angle guide can also be fitted in place of the parallel
guide, supplied as standard with the machine, and can be
used for hand-guided operation. The angle guide can be
swivelled to between 0° and 45°.

Maintenance and service

Always disconnect the mains plug from the
socket before carrying out any maintenance work on the
machine.
Any maintenance and repair work requiring an
opening of the motor housing may only be carried out by an
authorised customer service workshop.
The planer platen is made of a high-quality magnesium alu-
minium alloy. Any corrosion which may occur can be removed
by buffing using a fine elastic fibre mat "V lies quality" (grit
S800). To prevent corrosion of the chromated planer head any
cleansant used must have a pH value of between 4.5 and 8.
Keep the ventilation slots in the motor housing clean and
free of obstructions at all times to ensure an adequate
circulation of air.
The planer is fitted with special motor brushes with an
automatic cut-out. When the brushes become worn the power
supply is shut off automatically and the planer comes to a
standstill.
