any adjustments or carrying out maintenance
• Any damage to this tool should be repaired and
carefully inspected before use, by qualified repair
personnel
• Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair
person using only identical replacement parts. This will
ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained
Cleaning and lubrication
• After use, vacuum the planer machine to remove wood
chips, sawdust and debris
• Use a cleaning solution (not included) to remove resin
and grease residue
• Remove sawdust, wood chips and grease from chains
and gears
• The bearings in motor and cutter head units are
factory-sealed and should require no further lubrication
• Four components require regular lubrication:
- Rollercase vertical screw mechanism (x2)
- Rollercase lock cam
- Rollercase vertical rails (x4)
- Feed roller chain drive
• Remove the top and both side panels to access these
components
• Clean the chain drive before lubrication. Use spray oil
(not included) to lubricate the chain. Allow time for the
lubricant to penetrate between the links, then wipe the
surface of the chain dry
• Remove any residues of grease from the other
components, using mineral spirits if necessary, then
apply a coat of light grade multi-purpose grease (not
included)
• The work table and extension table can be coated with
a very thin coat of lubricating wax (not included) to
protect the surface from rust and to facilitate smooth
feed during operation
