be carried out by qualified electri-
cians!
Contact your local Metabo representative
if you have Metabo power tools requiring
repairs. See www.metabo.com for
addresses.

9. Environmental Protec-
tion
All packaging materials are recyclable.
Scrap power tools and accessories con-
tain large amounts of valuable resources
and plastics that can be recycled.
The instructions were printed on chlo-
rine-free bleached paper.
10. Troubleshooting
A
Danger!
Before carrying out any fault service
or maintenance work, always:
1. Switch machine off.
2. Wait until the saw has come to a
complete stop.
3. Disconnect the mains plug.
A
Cutting hazard when touching
the rotating cutterblock!
Unintentional startup of the machine
may lead to serious injuries.
A
Risk of burning!
Shortly after working the planer
knives may be hot - Let the device
cool down before rectifiying any mal-
function.
A
Danger!
After each malfunction rectification:
Put back into operation and check all
safety installations.
Motor does not run:
•
Undervoltage relay tripped by tem-
porary voltage failure.
Start again.
•
No mains voltage.
Check cables, plug, outlet and
mains fuse.
•
Motor has overheated, e.g. due to
blunt planer knives, overloading or
chip buildup.
Remove cause for overheating
and allow to cool down for
approx. 10 minutes, then start
again.
•
Contact pins of outfeed table or dust
chute have not engaged in the limit
switch.
Correctly install outfeed table or
dust chute, respectively. If neces-
sary, adjust contact pins.
When thickness planing: Check if
the setting screw of the chip
guard is turned to the end position
and correct if necessary. Only
then the contact switch is acti-
vated and the machine can be
switched on (see chapter 6.3
"Operation as thickness planer").
When surface planing: Check if
the chip extraction guard is
mounted correctly. Only then the
contact switch is activated and
the machine can be switched on
(see chapter 6.1 "Operation as
surface planer").
