Planing of narrow work pieces:
Add an auxiliary fence to safely guide narrow workpieces
(see Fig 9).
Operating notes:
The planer tables are precisely aligned ex. works. They may
only be loaded when the infeed tables lock knobs are
tightened.
Always use sharp cutter knives!
Check work piece for foreign objects (nails, screws) and for
loose knots.
Feed with thicker work piece end at the front, hollow side
downward.
Plane the stock with the grain, if possible.
You get a better surface when planing several passes with
less chip removal.
Switch machine off if no further planing is to be done
immediately afterwards. Cover the cutter block with the
cutter block guard.
Jointing and planing of short workpieces may only be
performed with the help of tailor made push woods and
templates.

6.2 Thicknessing
Disconnect machine from power source before making any

If the machine is currently set up for jointer-planer
operation, remove the dust chute (B, Fig 15).
Refer to the Jointer-Planer Setup section above.
Slide cutter guard (C) away from fence (A), which will
expose the cutterhead.
Cutterhead knives are dangerously sharp. Use extreme
caution when working around them.
Failure to comply may cause serious injury.
Orient the dust chute (B) as shown. Install onto the jointer
outfeed table (F2) and secure by tightening lock knobs (B4).
Adjustments
