Planing workpieces
3 The planer can remove max. 3 mm material
in one pass. This capacity, however, shall
only be utilized:
- with very sharp planer knives;
-
with soft timber;
-
if the max. planing width is not utilized.
Otherwise there is a risk of overloading the
machine.It is best to make several passes,
until the workpiece has the desired thick-
ness.
Workpiece dimensions
1. Fold both infeed and outfeed table down.
2. Set planing thickness with the crank.
A Risk of kickback!
Set the planing thickness only with the cut-
terblock at standstill!
3. Start motor (press green switch button).
4. Feed workpiece slowly over the planer bed.
The workpiece is fed automatically.
5. Guide workpiece in a straight line through the
machine.
A Risk of personal injury!
Never reach with your hands inside the
machine while guiding a workpiece! Guide a
workpiece from the outfeed end, when it is
drawn so far into the machine that it can no
longer be safely guided from the infeed side.
6. Switch the machine off, if no further planing is
to be done immediately afterwards.
