metal parts of the power tool "live" and could give
the operator an electric shock.
– Use clamps or another practical way to secure
and support the workpiece to a stable platform.
Holding the work by your hand or against the
body leaves it unstable and may lead to loss of
control.
– Festool electric power tools must only be in-
stalled on work tables provided by Festool for
this purpose. If the tool is installed in another, or
self-made, work table, it can become unstable
and result in serious accidents.
– Check the installation fixture prior to use and do
not use the machine if the fixture does not func-
tion correctly.
– Wear suitable protection: such as ear protec-
tion, safety goggles, a dust mask for work which
generates dust, and protective gloves when
working with raw materials and when changing
tools.
5.3 Emission levels
Levels determined in accordance with EN 60745 are
typically:
Vibration emission level a
h
(vector sum for three di-
rections) and uncertainty K measured in accor-
dance with 60745:
The specified emissions values (vibration, noise)
– are used to compare machines.
– They are also used for making preliminary esti-
mates 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 adequately. Take
note of idling and downtimes of machine!
6 Operation
Always switch the machine off before con-
necting or disconnecting the mains power
cable!
Connecting and detaching the mains power cable -
see Fig. [2].
Switch on: press [1-7]
Switch off: release [1-7]
7 Settings
7.1 Electronics
The machine features full-wave electronics with
the following features:
Smooth start-up
The electronically controlled smooth start-up en-
sures that the machine starts up jolt-free.
Constant speed
The motor speed remains constant through elec-
tronic control to ensure a uniform cutting speed
even when under load.
Temperature cut-out
The machine power supply is limited and the speed
reduced if the motor exceeds a certain tempera-
ture. The machine continues operating at reduced
power to allow the ventilator to cool the motor
quickly. The machine starts up again automatically
once the motor has cooled sufficiently.
7.2 Adjusting the planing thickness

WARNING
Unauthorised voltage or frequency!
Risk of accident
X The mains voltage and the frequency of the pow-
er source must correspond with the specifica-
tions on the machine's name plate.
X In North America, only Festool machines with
the voltage specifications 120 V/60 Hz may be
used.
WARNING
Risk of injury, electric shock
X Always pull the mains plug out of the socket be-
fore performing any type of work on the ma-
chine!
