• If more than one pass is necessary, the Rollercase must be lowered
manually before each pass
• Always set a thin depth of cut for hardwood, wide workpieces and
workpieces with an uneven surface
• Avoid wood stock with many or large knots, or with excessive twisting,
cupping, or bowing
• If necessary, process one side with a jointer or surface planer first to obtain
at least one flat surface before using the planer
• Plane both sides of the workpiece, removing half the total depth from each
side. This will produce two smooth surfaces with equal moisture content
and therefore a board less likely to warp when it dries naturally
• Make a test cut with similar material to check accuracy of the settings
before planing the workpiece
• Feed the workpiece 'with' the grain whenever as possible
• Provide suitable support for long or wide workpieces
1. Set up the planer/thicknesser for depth of cut required (see 'Setting the depth
of cut' above)
2. Stand on the side that the Crank Handle is fitted. Never stand directly in front
of the workpiece, and do not allow anyone to stand or cross in line with blade
rotation. Kickback or thrown debris will travel in this direction
3. Place the workpiece on the In-feed Table (10), with the surface to be planed
facing upwards
4. Turn the machine on and allow the cutter head to reach full speed
5. Holding the workpiece firmly, move it slowly towards and onto the in-feed
roller
NOTE: Never feed a workpiece into the planer via the out-feed table
6. Stop pushing the workpiece once it is engaged by the in-feed roller. The
in-feed roller will move the workpiece automatically through the planer
7. Do not force the cut. Slowing or stalling will overheat the motor
8. Always keep your hands well away from the blades or chip ejection area while
the motor is running
9. Support the weight of large workpieces as they move through the planer to
stabilise the workpiece and reduce snipe
10. Move to the back of machine to receive the workpiece. Do not pull the
workpiece; allow the rollers to do the work
11. If a workpiece becomes jammed inside the machine, turn the machine
off, remove the plug from mains supply, raise the Rollercase away from the
workpiece and ALLOW THE MACHINE TO COME TO A COMPLETE STOP
12. Never reach into the machine whilst it is in operation or running down
13. Use in-feed and out-feed rollers or supports when working with long
workpieces
14. For precision woodworking, measure the thickness of the workpiece with
calipers or a digital thickness gauge after each pass
Accessories
• A range of accessories, including Dust Port Adaptors and Planer Thicknesser
Blades 2pk is available from your Triton dealer. Spare parts can be purchased
from your Triton dealer or online at www.toolsparesonline.com
Maintenance
WARNING: ALWAYS disconnect from the power supply before carrying out
any inspection, maintenance or cleaning.
WARNING: ALWAYS wear suitable cut proof gloves when handling the Rollercase
GB
and its sub-components.
Note: Any damage to this tool should be repaired and carefully inspected before
use, by qualified repair personnel.
Note: 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.
• This tool is manufactured using class leading components and makes use of
the latest in intelligent circuitry that protects the tool and its components. In
normal use it should provide a long working life

Cleaning & lubrication
• Keep your machine clean at all times. Dirt and dust will cause internal parts
to wear quickly, and shorten the machine's service life. Clean the body of your
machine with a soft brush or dry cloth. If available, use clean, dry, compressed
air to blow through the ventilation holes
• 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
Re-aligning the Rollercase
• Test the blade alignment by running two pieces through each side (left and
right) of the planer
• Measure and compare results to check that the blades are correctly aligned
and/or to determine the amount of correction required
• To correct any misalignment:
1. Turn the planer/thicknesser off and remove the plug from the power source
2. Carefully place the planer on its back
3. Remove the screws to the horizontal spindle retaining bracket on the Crank
Handle (9) side of the planer (Image D)
4. Carefully disengage the gears (Image E)
5. Slowly rotate the Crank Handle to raise or lower the Rollercase as needed to
re-position it on the vertical screw
6. Rotate the Crank Handle forward or back as required in order to correct
the misalignment. Each complete turn of the Crank Handle will make an
adjustment of 1.5mm (1/16")
7. Re-engage the gears and re-fit the horizontal spindle retaining bracket
8. Carefully sit the planer/thicknesser upright again
9. Carry out a test run to check the Rollercase is now level
10. Repeat the correction process if further adjustment is necessary
Checking and replacing the Blades
Inspecting the blades:
1. Locate the Blade Cover Panel (17) on the back of planer. Loosen and remove
the Blade Cover Panel Hex Screws (16) on either side and lift off the panel
(Image F)
2. Identify the cutter head inside, and the TWO sharp blades on the cutter head
3. Without touching the blades, carefully turn the cutter head until the self-
engaging latch clicks to lock the cutter head
4. Use the Hex Key (15) to remove the six bolts on the blade cover plate (Image
G)
5. Using the two Magnets (19), carefully remove the blade cover plate
6. Then use the Magnets to remove the blade
7. Inspect the blade for signs of wear or damage. A blade that is dull, worn,
nicked, torn or uneven can result in poor performance such as fuzzy grain,
chipped grain, raised grain, raised edge and uneven cut
