To start the power tool, first press the lock-off
button (5), then press and hold the on/off
switch (6).
To switch off the power tool, release the on/off
switch (6).
Note: For safety reasons, the on/off switch (6)
cannot be locked; it must remain pressed during
the entire operation.
Constant Electronic control
The Constant Electronic keeps the speed at no
load and under load virtually consistent, guaran-
teeing uniform performance.
Soft start
English
The electronic soft start limits the torque when the
power tool is switched on and increases the ser-
vice life of the motor and the drive belt.
Temperature-dependent Overload Protection
In the event of an overload, the speed is reduced.
Allow the power tool to cool down unloaded at its
maximum no-load speed for approx. 30 seconds.
Practical advice
English
Pull the plug out of the socket before carry-
u
ing out any work on the power tool.
Planing Procedure (see figure G)
Set the required cutting depth and position the
power tool with the front section of the planer
base plate (10) on the workpiece.
Only bring the power tool into contact with
u
the workpiece when switched on. Otherwise
there is danger of kickback if the cutting tool
jams in the workpiece.
Switch on the power tool and guide it over the
surface of the workpiece, applying uniform feed.
To achieve high-quality surfaces, apply only a low
feed rate and exert pressure on the middle of the
planer base plate.
For the processing of hard materials, such as
hardwood, and also when utilising the maximum
planing width, set only a low cutting depth and re-
duce the planer feed as appropriate.
Excessive feed reduces the quality of the surface
finish and can lead to the chip ejector quickly be-
coming blocked.
Only sharp planer blades achieve good cutting
performance and make the power tool last longer.
The integrated parking rest (28) also enables a
continuation of the planing procedure following
interruption at any point on the workpiece:
– Place the power tool – with parking rest folded
down – onto the area of the workpiece that you
will continue to work on.
– Switch the power tool on.
– Shift the contact pressure onto the front of the
planer base plate and slowly slide the power

– Guide the power tool over the surface of the
Chamfering edges (see figure H)
The V-grooves in the front of the planer base plate
English
enable quick and easy chamfering of workpiece
edges. Select the V-groove that corresponds to
your chamfering width. Then position the planer
with the V-groove onto the edge of the workpiece
and guide it along.
English
Planing with the parallel/angle guide
(see figures D−F)
Attach the parallel guide (21) or the angle guide
(24) to the power tool with the fastening screw
(23). Depending on the application, attach the re-
bate depth guide (27) to the power tool with the
fastening screw (26).
English
Loosen the locking nut (22) and set the desired
rebate width. Retighten the locking nut (22).
Set the desired rebate depth accordingly using
the rebate depth guide (27).
Carry out the planing procedure several times un-
til the desired rebate depth has been achieved.
Guide the planer with sideways contact pressure.
Chamfering with angle guide
Planer blade/key compartment
In the planer blade/key compartment (3), you can
store a planer blade (16) and a hex key (18) as
shown in the illustration. To remove the compart-
ment contents, pull the planer blade/key compart-
ment (3) completely out of the planer.
