PLANING DEPTH ADJUSTMENT
Planer front footplate (6) is movable and it allows for planing depth
adjustment.
Planing depth can be adjusted with the knob for planing depth
adjustment (1) and the range is 0 – 2 mm, shown on the planing depth
scale (7) located on its circumference (fig. F).
OPERATION / SETTINGS
SWITCHING ON / SWITCHING OFF
The mains voltage must match the voltage on the rating plate of
the planer. Hold the planer with both hands when starting up and
during operation.
The planer features switch that protects against unintentional starting up.
Switching on:
• Press the switch lock button (3) (fig. G).
• Press the switch button (2).
Switching off:
• Release pressure on the switch button (2).
Hold the planer firmly with both hands before switching it on.
Switch on the planer only when the front footplate rests on the
material that you plan to process and the planer blades do not
touch material. This position prevents too early contact of blades
with material. Start the work only after the planer reaches its top
rotational speed.
When using the planer, try to position planer footplate and surface
of processed material in parallel. Guide the planer with both hands,
move it smoothly and continuously on the material surface. Effects
of work depend on speed of planer movement and depth of planing.
Coarse processing uses bigger planing depth. During fine processing
it is recommended to set small planing depth and to proceed with
work in few runs.
Do not press the planer too hard. Pressure should be moderate
and uniform on the whole surface of contact of foot and processed
material. Applying too big pressure causes undesirable drop
of rotational speed, motor overheating, damage of processed
material and parts of the planer. Make periodic breaks in
operation.
DEEP PLANING
You can use the deep planing guide and the parallel guide to make
hollows in material.
• Attach the parallel guide (9) and the deep planing guide (12).
• Set planing width and depth.
• Process the material (fig. H).
PROCESSING CORNERS (CHAMFERING)
V-grooves (18) located on the front footplate (6) (fig. I) allow for quick
processing (chamfering) of edges of processed material. Place one of
the V-grooves on the edge of processed material and move the planer
forward, make sure to keep the 45 0 angle (fig. J).

OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE

Unplug the power cord from mains socket before commencing
any activities related to installation, adjustment, repair or
maintenance.
• Soft brush or compressed air are best for cleaning the planer.
• Do not use abrasive objects for cleaning the planer.
• Do not clean with water or chemical cleaning agents.
• Clean the planer regularly, optimally after each use.
• Always keep the planer and ventilation holes clean.
• Store the planer in dry place, beyond reach of children.
• In case of excessive commutator sparking, have the technical
condition of carbon brushes of the motor checked by a qualified
person.
• When the work is finished empty the dust bag, next wash it in warm
water with soap and dry it thoroughly.
REPLACEMENT OF PLANER BLADES
Use only cutting heads that are recommended by the
manufacturer, and that include blades, drum, blade fixing parts,
appropriate bolts and spindle. Always replace both blades at a
time.
New blades must be of the same size and weight as old ones.
Otherwise the head may vibrate, processing may be improper
and it may damage blades or planer head. Too fast advance
considerably reduces efficiency and quality of work and durability
of blades. Use only sharp blades. Avoid blunting the blades.
Replace blades as soon as it is necessary.
• Use the spanner (included) to loosen fixing screws (15) of the blade
(16) (fig. K).
• Turn the head (17) by 180
blade.
• Press in the removable shield (21) and slide the blades out.
• Replace the blades with new ones and proceed with installation in
reverse sequence of disassembly.
• Make sure the blades are positioned symmetrically in the guide of
the head (17).
• Tighten screws (15) that fix blades alternately and with the same
force.
Ensure screws and bolts are tightened after blades are installed in
the head. Failing to do so may cause damage of the planer or the
user's body injury. Blade edges must be parallel to the head drum
surface. Otherwise the processed surface will not be flat and even.
Use only head that is supplied with the product, head supplied by
the manufacturer or its authorized distributor.
REPLACEMENT OF DRIVE BELT
Planer does not work properly if drive belt is worn. Belt replacement
is necessary.
• Unscrew fixing screws and remove the drive belt cover (4).
• Remove the drive belt by turning the pulleys manually and pulling
the belt off.
• To install new drive belt do as follows:
– put the drive belt onto smaller pulley,
– rotate pulleys and draw the drive belt over the bigger pulley.
• Ensure the belt is correctly set on both pulleys.
• Install drive belt cover (4) and tighten fixing screws.
