Switch on/off
•
Pres on/off switch and locking button for on/off buton together.
•
Pres and release on/off switch.
Dust extraction
Attach the dust collector bag supplied or a vacuum extractor to the chip discharge hole. Always work with
the dust collector attached. Frequent emptying of the dust collector bag increases the efficiency of the dust
collector. The tool must be fitted a vacuum extractor, during working on profesional wooden workpieces.
Working with the plane
Setting cut depth
•
Turn the setting knob to the right as far as the stop.
•
Stand the plane on a flat surface and turn the setting knob to the left until the plane sole plate lies flat on
the surface and the "O" mark on the knob is level with the mark on the housing. To set the desired cut
depth turn the knob to the right for any cut depth up to a permitted maximum of 2mm. The mm marks on
the setting knob (first the black, then the red) serve as a guide.
Planing
First, place the forward sole plate of the plane flat on the surface of the workpiece, but so that the cutters
do not come into contact with it. Start the plane up and wait for the cutters to reach full speed. Then push
the plane carefully forwards. When starting planing, apply pressure to the front end of the plane and when
finishing planing, to the rear end. Planing is easier if the workpiece is set at an angle, so that you work
forwards and downwards. The speed and cut depth determine the surface quality. The plane cuts evenly at
a speed which prevents jamming through chips. For rough-cutting the cut depth can be increased, while for
optimum surface quality the cut depth should be reduced and the plane moved more slowly.
Rebating
To cut a rebate as shown in the diagram on the left use the stop. Set the side stop so that it rests against the
side of the workpiece, then tighten the screw.
Bevelling and chamfering edges
Place the 90° V-groove on the edge of the workpiece and move it along it.
Maintenance and cleaning
Before any work on the machine itself, pull the mains plug.
Dissambling plane cutter blades
•
Undo the three screws on the cutter shaft.
•
Remove cutter pressure plates.
•
Remove cutter blades.
Sharpening plane cutter blades
•
Place the cutter blades in the sharpening fixture and screw down tightly.
•
Sharpen the blades at the correct angle on awhetstone.
