2.1 General power tool safety warnings

WARNING! Read all safety warnings, instructions, illustrations and specifica tions provided with this power tool. Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury. Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.

2.2 Machine-specific safety notices

– Wait for the cutter to stop before setting the tool down. An exposed rotating cutter may engage the surface leading to possible loss of control and serious injury. – Hold the power tool by insulated gripping surfaces, because the cutter may contact its own cord. Cutting a “live” wire may make exposed metal parts of the power tool “live” and could give the operator an electric shock. – Use clamps or another practical way to se cure and support the workpiece to a stable platform. Holding the workpiece by your hand or against the body leaves it unstable and may lead to loss of control. – This power tool cannot be installed in a work bench. The power tool may become unsafe and cause serious accidents if in stalled in benches from other manufactur ers or self-manufactured work benches. – Wear suitable personal protective equip ment: Ear protection, safety goggles, a dust mask for work that generates dust. – Check the plug and the cable regularly and should either become damaged, in order to avoid a hazard, have them replaced by an authorised after-sales service workshop. – Only for AS/NZS: The tool shall always be supplied via residual current device with a rated residual current of 30mA or less.

Constant speed The motor speed is electronically kept con stant. This ensures a uniform cutting speed even when under load. Brake (HL850EB) The tool is electronically braked to a stop within

1.5 to 2seconds of being switched off.

7.2 Setting the chip thickness

► Open the lock[3-1] by pushing it back wards. ► Set the required chip thickness by turning the handle[3-2]. The scale[3-3] displays the set chip thickness. ► Close the lock by pushing it forwards to prevent the set chip thickness being changed. The maximum chip removal is3.5mm. To pre vent overloading of the power tool, we recom mend that you do not feed more than2.5mm with a planing width of>40mm. If you continue turning the handle beyond the 0marking, you will reach positionP= park position. In posi tionP, the blade of the planing head is fully re tracted behind the planer foot. Note: This does not apply to the rustic planing heads.

7.3 Changing the planing head

CAUTION Risk of injury from hot and sharp tool. ► Do not use any blunt or faulty tools. ► Wear protective gloves when handling a tool. ► Press and hold the spindle lock[1-11]. ► Use a hexagon wrench[2-7] to undo the screw[2-2]. ► Pull the planing head[2-6] off the shaft. ► Clean the shaft to remove any deposits. ► Place a new planing head on the shaft. ► Secure the new planing head with the clamping flange[2-4], the washer[2-3] and the screw[2-2]. Tighten the screw.

WARNING Risk of kickback and poor quality of planing work from worn spiral blade ► Only use sharp and undamaged spiral blades.

CAUTION Risk of injury from hot and sharp tool. ► Do not use any blunt or faulty tools. ► Wear protective gloves when handling a tool. The planer comes with the HK82SD plan ing head as standard. The planing head has cutting edges inserted at an angle, which means that the planer blades can not be reground. ► Use a hexagon wrench[1-2] to undo the three screws[4-1] in the planing head. ► Pull the spiral blade[4-2] out from the side of the planing head. ► Clean the retaining groove for the spiral blade. Note: To prevent corrosion on the planing head, the cleaning agent used must have a pH between 4.5 and 8. ► Push a new spiral blade into the retaining groove of the planing head so that the label led side faces the rear planer foot. ► Using a ruler[4-3], align the spiral blade so that the front side is flush with the front and rear planer feet of the planer. A spiral blade that protrudes outwards or is set back inwards on the front side distorts the rebate width. ► Tighten the middle screw first, followed by the two outer screws[4-1].

7.5 Installing stops (included in accessories

in some cases) Installing the FA-HL rebate depth stop ► Secure the rebate depth stop[2-1] in the threaded hole[2-14] on the right-hand side of the device. The rebate depth stop can be adjusted any where between 0 and30mm according to the scale. The set rebate depth is read from the marking on the ribbing[2-13]. English 16Installing the PA-HL parallel side fence ► Secure the parallel side fence[2-11] in the threaded hole[2-14] on the left-hand side of the device. To plane along an edge, first loosen the clamp[2-10], then use the fence to adjust the planing width between 0 and82mm. Installing the WA-HL angle stop ► Secure the angle stop in the threaded hole[2-14] in the same way as the parallel side fence.

WARNING Health hazard posed by dust ► Always work with an extractor. ► Comply with national regulations. ► Wear a dust mask. Chips can be ejected either out of the right[5-3] or left[5-4] opening using the toggle lever[5-2]. Either a chip collection bag or an extractor hose (dia.36mm) can be connected to both openings. CAUTION! Always use an antistatic suction hose (AS). A slight electric shock may cause you to panic briefly and become distracted, which may result in an accident. SB-HL chip collection bag (accessory) The chip collection bag is attached using the AD-HL adapter[5-6]. ► Use the tab[5-5] to mount the adapter on the bottom edge of the chip ejector opening and turn the rotary knob[5-7] to fasten it in the threaded hole[5-1]. Extractor hose An extractor hose (dia.36mm) can either be inserted directly into the chip ejector opening or into the AD-HL adapter for the chip collection bag. 8 Working with the electric power tool

WARNING Risk of injury, damage to the spiral blade ► Remove metals from the surface to be planed.

WARNING Risk of injury ► Secure the workpiece in such a way that it cannot move during machining. When working, hold the power tool with both hands on the intended handles[1-3], [1-9]. ► Set the required chip thickness. ► Place the planer with the front planer foot on the workpiece without touching the workpiece with the planing head. ► Switch on the planer. ► Guide the planer over the workpiece so that the planer foot is lying flat on the work piece. ▻ Apply pressure to the front planer foot when starting to plane. ▻ Apply pressure to the rear planer foot for the remainder of the planing proc ess.

8.1 Placing the power tool down

WARNING Risk of injury ► Use the power tool only with fully function al support foot[2-8]. ► The planing shaft continues to run for a few seconds after it has been switched off. Wait until the planing shaft comes to a stand still. The power tool has a support foot[2-8] at the end of the planer foot to safely place the planer down. When the power tool is lifted up, the support foot automatically extends over the planer foot so that the planing shaft does not touch the surface when the planer is placed down on a flat surface. If the support foot should be prevented from protruding beyond the planer foot in specific applications, it can be locked in the upper posi tion by pushing on it from the side[2-8].

The planer can be used to plane a rebate of unlimited depth. ► Move the guard[7-1] away by first pushing the lever[7-2] forwards and then to the left. ☑ The front side of the planing head is now exposed. Once work is complete, the guard automatically returns to position through spring action. English

To chamfer workpiece edges, the front planer foot has a 90° V-shaped groove[2-12]. This V- shaped groove is 2mm deep, so that when the chip thickness is set to0, the edge is broken by 2mm.

8.4 Rustic planing heads (accessories)

You can use the planer to produce rustic-look surfaces. Three rustic planing heads are availa ble for this: – HK82RG: Produces a surface with a coarse surface finish. – HK82RF: Produces a surface with a fine surface finish. – HK82RW: Produces a surface with irregu lar undulations. NOTICE The blades on the rustic planing heads (HK82RF, HK82RG, HK82RW) protrude from the planer foot by approx.1.6mm. This means that the cutting depth must be set to0mm when using the rustic planing heads on the pla ner. Otherwise there is a risk that the blades on the rustic planing heads will route into the planer foot and destroy the planer. The cutting depth limiter[6-2] prevents the cutting depth from being accidentally increased when working with the planer. Always attach the cutting depth limiter to the planer before working with a rustic planing head: ► Set the cutting depth on the planer to0mm. ► Use the rotary knob[6-1] to secure the cut ting depth limiter in the threaded hole[6-3]. 9 Accessories Always use original Festool tools and original Festool accessories. Using low-quality tools or accessories from other manufacturers may in crease the risk of injury and seriously unbal ance the machine, decreasing the quality of the working results and accelerating power tool wear.
