6. Set both left and right lock lever (72) fully
upwards, lift their ends slightly and secure the
chip chute (74) with the lock levers.
A
Danger!
When thickness planing the chip chute (74)
serves as cutterblock guard. To prevent
injury by the rotating cutterblock the chip
chute must be properly seated and secured!
7. Raise cutterblock guard extrusion (72):
all the way in
and lower it carefully to provide additional
hold for chip chute and dust collector con-
nector.
8. If a dust collector is to be used, connect the
dust collector connector's suction port (71) to a
suitable dust collector.

A
Danger!
Dust of certain timber species (e.g. oak,
beech, ash) can cause cancer when inhaled:
Always connect a dust collector when working
indoors:
fitting the outer diameter of the suction
port (100 mm)
air volume 550 m
vacuum at suction port of machine
740 Pa;
air speed at suction port of machine
20 m/s;
A
Caution! Operation without a dust collector
is only possible:
outdoors;
if only minimal chips are generated (with
narrow stock and little chip removal);
with dust respirator.
Thickness planing
A
Danger!
Entanglement hazard by the rotating feed
rollers! Do not reach into the machine!
Use a feeding aid (push stick) if you want
to feed short stock into the thicknesser.
Do not jam work pieces Risk of kickback.
Remove stuck stock only after motor has
come to a complete stop and machine is
unplugged.
Guide a workpiece on the outfeed side if it
has been fed so far into the thicknesser
that it can no longer be safely guided from
the infeed side.
Do not thickness plane more than two
workpieces at the same time. In this case
feed both workpieces on the outsides of
the thicknesser bed.
If the type of work requires, use the follow-
ing:
Dust collection device (optional acces-
sory).
Anti-seize compound to make the work-
piece glide more easily across the thick-
nesser bed.
1. Assume proper operating position:
on the switch side;
head-on to the machine;
2. Set planing thickness with the crank.
