The shift lever (7.2) can be used to select chip
ejection (7.3) via the left- hand or right-hand ejec-
tor aperture. Both these ejector apertures allow
the fi tting of either a chip collection bag SB-HL or
a Festool 36 mm dia. suction hose.
The chip collection bag SB-HL is connected by
means of an adapter (7.5). The adapter (included
in the scope of delivery of the SB-HL) is fi tted by
inserting its lug (7.4) into the lower edge of the
chip ejector and is secured by means of the screw
(7.6) in the threaded hole (7.1). The 36 mm dia.
suction hose can be fi tted either by clamping it
directly into the chip ejector aperture or by insert-
ing it into the adapter in the SB-HL.
If used with materials which produce
hazardous dusts the electric tool should be con-
nected to a suitable extractor.

Working with the machine

The surface to be planed must be
free of metallic objects. Never plane over screws,
nails, etc.
When using the rustic planer heads
(HK 82 RF, HK 82 RG, HK 82 RW) work with set-
ting 0 mm since the rustic cutters automatically
project 1.5 mm beyond the planer platen.
The planer is equipped with two handles to enable
it to be guided precisely. Place the front platen
onto the workpiece but do not allow the planer
head to come into contact with the wood. Switch
on the planer and bring it into contact with the
workpiece by pressing lightly on the supplemen-
tary handle (1.7).
The following basic rule applies for planing wood:
Optimum surface quality will be obtained by press-
ing on the front planer platen when starting to
plane and on the rear planer platen (end of work-
piece) when continuing or fi nishing planing.
If the parking device should be found obstructive
during special planing work it can be swung back
out of the way and locked in position (8.2).

Always ensure, that when setting the
machine down on a surface the parking device is
correctly extended (8.1).

Rebating

9.1
The planer head is supported by a bearing on one
side only, thus allowing rebates of unlimited size
to be cut with the planer. For this purpose, the
protective cover (9.2) must be folded away. To do
this, press the lever (9.1) fi rst forwards and then
to the left. This raises the protective cover over
the planer head to the machine's housing, thus
exposing the face of the planer head.
At the end of work the protective cover auto-
matically returns to its position over the planer
head.

Chamfering

The front planer platen is equipped with a 90° V
groove (9.3) to allow the chamfering of workpiece
edges. This V groove is 2 mm deep, thus produc-
ing a 2 mm edge chamfer with the chip thickness
setting 0 mm.

Bench-mounted operation

The planer can be operated bench-mounted in con-
junction with the bench-mounting device SE-HL
and the angle guide WA-HL. Detailed instructions
are supplied with each of these accessories.
The angle guide can also be fi tted in place of the
parallel guide, supplied as standard with the ma-
chine, and can be used for hand-guided operation.
The angle guide can be swivelled to between 0°
and 45°.
