A support foot [1-10] is fitted to the end of the plan-
er foot so that the EHL 65 EQ can be set down safe-
ly.When the machine is lifted up, the support foot
automatically swivels over the edge of the planer
foot so that the blade does not touch the surface
when the planer is set down.
8.2
Chamfering
The front planer foot is fitted with a 90° V groove [1-
11] for chamfering workpiece edges. The V groove
is 2 mm deep so that 2 mm of the edge is chamfered
when the planing thickness is set to 0.
8.3
Bench mounting
The planer can be operated as a stationary machine
in combination with bench unit SE-EHL (488524).
