9.2 Thicknessing

IMPORTANT! Pull out the power plug before performing any maintenance, cleaning and adjusting work.

9.2.1 Adjustment (fig. 22)

  • Place the crank handle (12) on the spindle and turn it to adjust the thicknessing table (21) to the required height. The set angle can be read off the scale (G).
    It is important to adjust the height of the planing table (21) from bottom to top, i.e. crank the table further down (approx. 5mm ) than the desired height. Then crank the table (21) upwards to the desired height.

9.2.2 Thicknessing mode (fig. 22 + 9)

Attention! Watch out the right mounting of the chip extractor (point 8.7)

  • Plug in the machines power cord. Press the green button "l" to start the plane (2).
  • Place a workpiece on the thicknessing table (21).
    Guide the workpiece towards the feed table (14).
  • When you have finished work, switch off the machine. To do this, press the red button "0". Then disconnect the machine from the mains supply.
  • Remove the chips and dust from the thicknessing table (21) and knife block after the machine has reached a complete standstill.

10. Electrical connection

The electrical motor installed is connected and ready for operation. The connection complies with the applicable VDE and DIN provisions.

The customer's mains connection as well as the extension cable used must also comply with these regulations.

Important information

In the event of an overloading the motor will switch itself off. After a cool-down period (time varies) the motor can be switched back on again.

Damaged electrical connection cable.

The insulation on electrical connection cables is often damaged.

This may have the following causes:

Passage points, where connection cables are passed through windows or doors.
- Kinks where the connection cable has been improperly fastened or routed.
- Places where the connection cables have been cut due to being driven over.
Insulation damage due to being ripped out of the wall outlet.
- Cracks due to the insulation ageing.

Such damaged electrical connection cables must not be used and are life-threatening due to the insulation damage. Check the electrical connection cables for damage regularly. Make sure that the connection cable does not hang on the power network during the inspection.

Electrical connection cables must comply with the applicable VDE and DIN provisions. Only use connection cables with the marking "H05VV-F".

The printing of the type designation on the connection cable is mandatory.

AC motor:

The mains voltage must be 230 - 240V
- Extension cables up to 25m long must have a cross-section of 1.5mm^2

Connections and repairs of electrical equipment may only be carried out by an electrician.

Please provide the following information in the event of any enquiries:

Type of current for the motor
Machine data - type plate

11. Cleaning

Warning! Prior to any adjustment, maintenance or service work disconnect the mains power plug!

General maintenance measures

Wipe chips and dust off the machine from time to time using a cloth. In order to extend the service life of the tool, oil the rotary parts once monthly. Do not oil the motor.

When cleaning the plastic do not use corrosive products.

The threaded spindle for height-adjustment of the thicknessing table may only be treated with a dry lubricant agent.

The table surfaces as well as the infeed and output rollers must always be kept free from resin.

Regularly clean infeed and output rollers.

In order to avoid overheating of the motor, regularly check the air openings for any dust sticking on.

After a longer period of use, it is recommended to have the machine checked by an authorized dealer service

Tool care:

Cutter block, clamping devices, knife supports and knives must be regularly cleaned from resin, as a clean tool improves the planing quality. To this purpose, clamping devices, knife supports and knives can be put in a common resin remover for 24 hours.

Resin from aluminium tools may only be removed with cleaning liquids not being aggressive to this type of metal.

12. Storage

Store the device and its accessories in a dark, dry and frost-proof place that is inaccessible to children. The optimum storage temperature is between 5 and 30^ . Store the electrical tool in its original packaging. Cover the electrical tool in order to protect it from dust and moisture. Store the operating manual with the electrical tool.

13. Maintenance

Warning!

Prior to any adjustment, maintenance or service work disconnect the mains power plug!

Changing the knives (Fig 17-19)

  • Important! Always pull the mains plug before changing the knives.
  • Pull the planing knife cover (9) forwards as far as possible so that the entire knife block is exposed.
  • Loosen and remove the four clamping screws (23).
  • Lift the knives (25) and knife block (24) from the cutter block.
  • Remove the chips and any resin from the cutter block and knife support.
  • Place new knives (25) into the cutter block and fix them with the rectangle slots in both screw heads. (With these two screws, height-adjustment of the knife is done.)
  • Place the knife block (24) onto the knife.
  • Slightly tighten the four clamping bolts (23).
  • Repeat these actions for the second knife.
  • Place the blade adjustment block (18), as shown in Figure 18, on the knife block. Make sure that the knife (25) touches both sides of the blade adjustment block (18).
  • By the two set screws (26), the knife can be adjusted for height.
    After a successful knife setting, all clamping screws must be tightened

Please mind:

  • Sharp planer/thicknesser knives guarantee a clean planing surface and put less stress on the motor.
    After three grinding actions, a maximum material removal of 3 × 0.05 ~mm may not be exceeded.
  • The planer/thicknesser blades used on this machine are not suitable for rebating and dovetailing.
  • Finally lower the cutter block guard again onto the table. Cover the cutter block and block it with the star grip screw.

IMPORTANT!

Only use knives which are recommended by the manufacturer for this equipment. If you use other knives there is a risk of injuries due to lack of control.

Avoid over-tightening and the possibility of the thread becoming detached. If the latch (22) or the screws have worn out threads they must be immediately replaced.

Connections and repairs

Connections and repairs of electrical equipment may only be carried out by an electrician.
