2 Safety instructions
2.1 General Safety Rules
Before using the machine, read all
safety instructions and these ope-
rating instructions carefully and
thoroughly.
Save all enclosed documents and pass the
machine with all these documents only.
2.2 Tool-specifi c safety rules
Wait for the cutter to stop before setting
the tool down. An exposed cutter may en-
gage the surface leading to possible loss of
control and serious injury.
Wear suitable personal pro-
tection equipment: Ear pro-
tection to reduce the risk of
damaging your hearing; Pro-
tective goggles; Face mask
to reduce the risk of inhaling
harmful dust; Protective
gloves when handling tools
and coarse materials

Smooth start-up
The smooth start-up ensures the router
starts up jolt-free.
Constant speed
The pre-selected speed remains constant
whether the machine is in operation or in
neutral position.
Temperature control
To prevent overheating, the safety electro-
nics switches the machine off when it rea-
ches a critical motor temperature. Let the
machine cool down for approx. 3-5 minutes
before using it again. The machine requires
less time to cool down if it is running, i.e.
in neutral position.

The planing depth can be adjusted by tur-
ning the rotary knob (2.1) (turn to the right
= larger planing depth, turn to the left =
smaller planing depth). The planing depth
which has been set can be read at the mark
(2.3) for the rotary knob scale (2.2). Adjus-
tment by one scale mark corresponds to a
change in planing depth of 0.1 mm.
The max. planing depth is 4 mm. So as no
to overload the machine, we recommend
that a maximum planing depth of 2.5 mm
be set with a plane width > 40 mm.

Power supply and start-up
The mains voltage must correspond
to the specifi cation on the rating
plate.
Electronics
The tool has full-wave electronics
with the following features:
Chip thickness adjustment
Changing cutters
Use only cutters which are sharp and
undamaged. Blunt cutters increase
the danger of kick-back and reduce
the planing quality obtained.
