and the attached GENERAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
LEAFLET carefully before using the machine. Make
sure you have understood them before operating the
machine for the fi rst time.
Keep both sets of instructions for any future que-
ries.
1. SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR
USE OF THE PLANER
1. WARNING! Read carefylly the GENERAL SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS LEAFLET, which is included in the
machine documentation.
2. Before starting up the machine make sure that
the supply voltage is the same as that shown on the
specifi cation plate.
3. Keep hands away from the cutting area at all times
and always hold the machine down with both hands
using the handles.
4. Always use original VIRUTEX blades. Never use
incorrect, defective or faulty blades.
5. It is necessary to work with dust collection in order
to prolong the life of the blades and prevent any
breakages.
6. Avoid cutting nails. Check the work surface before
planing.
7. Wait until the machine has come to a complete stop
before putting it down or storing it.
8. Wear earplugs when using the machine (see
chapter 11)

4. GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The CE96H planer is equipped with a front shoe and
a rear base with adjustable radiuses which allow
them to be adapted to convex or concave surfaces
for planing. The front shoe also permits the cutting
depth to be adjusted up to 3 mm. The planer is also
equipped with a lateral fence; double use, hard metal,
re place a ble blades; a safety switch, and a dust col-
lector connection.
5. LATERAL FENCE
Place the lateral fence L in position and secure with
knob P (Fig. 1).
It is advisable to work with the lateral fence mount ed
when ev er possible to ensure perpendicularity between
the face of the piece and the blade cut.
6. ADJUSTMENTS
PLANING CONCAVE SURFACES
Approximation planing:
Draw a line of reference R, for approximation plan-
ing (Fig. 2).
Set the cut depth to "0" using knob C (Fig. 2).
Set the shoe and the base to a radius slightly lower
than the radius to be planed using knobs A and B
(Fig. 2).
Set the shoe to the desired cut depth using knob C
(Fig. 2).
Mount the lateral fence as indicated in sec tion 5
(Fig. 1).
Plane out irregularities using the shoe surface as a
-1
support to commence cutting and move suc ces sive ly
along the areas with irregularities towards the line of
reference.
Finish planing:
To plane a concave surface with uniform thickness
2
or to
give a continuous fi nish to a close planed surface as
described in the previous section, pro ceed as fol-
lows:
Set the cut depth to "0" using knob C (Fig. 3).
Loosen knobs A and B which secure the shoe and the
base. Place the planer on the surface to be worked
so that the shoe and the base adapt to the surface,
and secure them in the desired position using knobs A
and B (Fig. 3). Check that the slipper and the base are
parallel, making sure that the same division is shown
over straps L (Fig. 10) on both sides of the planer.
Adjust the cut depth to the desired level using knob
C (Fig. 3).
Mount the lateral fence as indicated in sec tion 5
(Fig.1).
To plane the piece, use the shoe surface as a support
guide to commence cutting and gradually widen the
sup port to the entire base.
