Plug It Power Cord; Turning On The Joiner; Extension Cable; Dust Extraction - Festool DOMINO DF 500 Manual De Instrucciones

12
Always hold the Domino dowel jointer with
both hands at the motor housing and at
the additional handle. This reduces the risk
of injury and is a prerequisite for precise
work.
Close the clamping lever for jointing height
adjustment [2.3] and the clamping lever
for the angle guide [1.5] so that accidental
release during operation is impossible.
Adapt the feed rate to the jointer bit diam-
eter and material. Work with a constant
feed rate.
Only lay the Domino dowel jointer aside
when the jointer bit has come to a complete
standstill.

Plug it Power Cord

The Domino joiner comes equipped with a
removable plug it power cord.
To install the power cord, insert the cord into
the inlet on the tool with the key and keyway
aligned, and twist the locking ring [11.1].
Reverse the procedure to remove the cord.

Note:
Turn the outer locking ring [11.1] ¼-turn
to fully engage or disengage the cord.

Turning on the Joiner

Never turn the tool on when the
Fence Body is removed, as this exposes the
spinning cutter.
Before turning the tool on, make
sure all adjustment handles are locked and
the tool is safe to turn on.
To turn the joiner on, push forward and down
on the power switch [12.1]. The power switch
locks into the On position when activated.
To turn the joiner off, press down on the back
of the power switch to release the latch.

Extension Cable

If an extension cable is required, it must have
a suffi cient cross-section so as to prevent
an excessive drop in voltage or overheating.
An excessive drop in voltage reduces the
output and can lead to failure of the motor.
The table shows you the correct cable diam-
eter as a function of the cable length for the
DF 500 Q.

Cord size (AWG)
Use only U.L. and CSA listed extension cables.
Never use two extension cables together. In-
stead, use one long one.
Note:
The lower the AWG number, the stronger
the cable.

Dust Extraction

The Domino machine is intended to be used
with a dust extraction system. Using the ma-
chine without dust extraction will cause it to
clog with wood chips.
When installing a Festool dust extraction hose
onto the dust port [13.1] of the machine, it
is easiest to insert the hose at an angle and
then push it on the rest of the way as shown
to the right.
