– Provide for good ventilation of the working place.
– It is recommended to wear a P2 filter-class respirator.
Observe the relevant regulations in your country for the
materials to be worked.
Clean the chip ejector 1 regularly. Use a suitable tool (e.g., a
piece of wood, compressed air, etc.) to clean a clogged chip
ejector.
Do not reach into the saw dust ejector with your hands.
They could be injured by rotating parts.
To ensure optimum extraction of dust/chips, always work
with external dust extraction or a chip/dust bag.
External Dust Extraction (see figure C)
An extraction hose (Ø 35 mm) 15 (accessory), can be
attached on either side of the chip ejector.
Connect the vacuum hose 15 to a vacuum cleaner
(accessory).
An overview for connecting to various vacuum cleaners can
be found at the end of this manual.
The vacuum cleaner must be suitable for the material being
worked.
When vacuuming dry dust that is especially detrimental to
health or carcinogenic, use a special vacuum cleaner.
Integrated Dust Extraction (see figure C)
A chip/dust bag (accessory) 16 can be used for smaller
jobs. Insert the sleeve of the chip/dust bag firmly into the
chip ejector 1. Empty the chip/dust bag 16 at regulary
intervals to maintain optimum dust collection.
Choice of Chip Ejector Side
With the selector lever 4, the chip ejector 1 can be switched
to right or left. Always press the selector lever 4 until it
engages in the end position. The selected ejection direction
is indicated by an arrow symbol on the selector lever 4.
3.3 Electrical connection
Observe correct mains voltage! The voltage of the
power source must agree with the voltage specified on
the nameplate of the machine. Power tools marked with
230 V can also be operated with 220 V.
Switching On and Off
To start the machine, first push the lock-off button for the
On/Off switch 6 and then press the On/Off switch 5 and
keep it pressed.
To switch off the machine, release the On/Off switch 5.
For safety reasons, the On/Off switch 5 cannot be
locked; it must remain pressed during the entire
operation.

4. Operating instructions
4.1 Placement and testing
Adjusting the Planing Depth
With the adjustment knob 2, the planing depth can be
adjusted variably from 0–2.0 mm using the planing depth
scale 3 (scale graduation = 0.1 mm).
4.2 Adjustment operation
Planing (see figure G)
Set the required planing depth and place the front part of the
planer base plate 8 against the workpiece.
Apply the machine to the workpiece only when
switched on. Otherwise there is danger of kickback
when the cutting tool jams in the workpiece.
Switch the machine on and guide the machine with even
feed over the surface to be planed.
To achieve high-grade surfaces, work only with low feed
and apply pressure on the centre of the planer base plate.
When machining hard materials (e.g. hardwood) as well as
when utilising the maximum planer width, set only low
planing depths and reduce planer feed, as required.
Excessive feed reduces the surface quality and can lead to
rapid clogging of the chip ejector.
Only sharp blades achieve good cutting capacity and give
the machine longer life.
– Switch on the machine.
– Apply the supporting pressure onto the front part of the
planer base plate and slowly push the machine forward
(1). This tilts the park rest upward (2) so that the rear part
of the planer base plate faces on the workpiece again.
