To protect your health, wear a P2 protec-
tive mask.
5.3 Noise and vibration information
The typical values determined in accordance with
EN 60745 are:
Sound-pressure level
84 dB(A)
Sound-power level 95 dB(A)
Measuring uncertainty allowance K = 3 dB
Wear ear protection!
Vibration emission value a
h
(vector sum for three
directions) and uncertainty K measured in accord-
ance with EN 60745:
Vibration emission value
a
h
= 3,0 m/s²
K = 1,5 m/s²
The specifi ed emissions values (vibration, noise)
– are used to compare machines.
– They are also used for making preliminary
estimates regarding vibration and noise loads
during operation.
– They represent the primary applications of the
power tool.
Increase possible for other applications, with
other insertion tools or if not maintained adequat-
ely. Take note of idling and downtimes of machine!
6 Power supply and start-up
The mains voltage must correspond to
the specifi cation on the rating plate.
Always switch the machine off before con-
necting or disconnecting the mains lead!
See Fig. 2 for connection and disconnection of the
power cable.
To switch on, push the switch (1.1) forwards until
it engages. Pressing the back end of the switch is
suffi cient to release the switch-on lock and switch
the machine off.
7 Machine settings
Always remove the power supply plug
from the socket before carrying out any
work on the machine.
7.1 Changing tools
Required tools: fork wrench a/f 8 (supplied).
Always wear protective gloves during tool change
due to the risk of injury from the sharp tool cut-
ters.
a) Removing the tool
- Lift the unlocking lever (4.2) until it audibly en-
gages with the fork wrench (4.1).
- Separate the motor unit (4.5) and the guide
frame (4.4).
- Press and hold in the spindle lock (5.1).
- Release and unscrew the jointer bit (5.2) with
the fork wrench.
- Release the spindle lock.
b) Inserting the tool
- Before inserting a new jointer bit, ensure that
the machine, the guide frame and the guides
(4.3) are clean. Remove any contamination that
may be present. Only use sharp, undamaged
and clean tools.
- Press and hold in the spindle lock (5.1).
- Use the fork wrench to screw on the jointer bit
(5.2).
- Release the spindle lock.
- Slide the guide frame onto the motor unit until
it audibly engages.
7.2 Adjusting the milling depth
- Open the notch lever lock (1.8) by pressing it.
- Use the locking lever (1.7) to set the desired
jointing depth (12 mm, 15 mm, 20 mm, 25 mm,
28 mm). For the jointer bit with a diameter of 5
mm, only jointing depths of 12 mm, 15 mm and
20 mm are permitted due to its short shank
length.
- Release the notch lever lock again.
A special cutter is available for the DOMINO
dowel 4x20 mm (due to risk of breakage). Note
the following when using this cutter (D 4-NL 11
HW-DF 500):
- Set the routing depth to 20 mm using the stop
lever (1.7). The actual routing depth is 10 mm.
The dowel can only be positioned centrally (see
Fig. 7b).
Ensure that the jointing depth is at
least 3 mm smaller than the workpiece
thickness. Otherwise the jointer bit can
emerge from the workpiece at the rear
side, which involves an increased risk of
injury.
7.3 Setting jointing height
a) with selection slide
- Release the clamping lever (6.1) for jointing
height adjustment.
- Using the additional handle (6.2), raise the front
section of the guide frame.
- Use the slide (6.6) to set the desired board thick-
ness (16 mm, 20 mm, 22 mm, 25 mm, 28 mm,
36 mm, 40 mm).
- Press the front section of the guide frame down-
wards as far as the stop.
- Close the clamping lever (6.1).
