2. Safety instructions

Explanation of symbols

In this manual and/or on the machine the following symbols are used:

In accordance with essential applicable safety standards of European directives

Class II machine – Double insulation – You don't need any earthed plug.

Denotes risk of personal injury, loss of life or damage to the tool in case of non-observance of the instructions in this manual.

Indicates electrical shock hazard.

Remove the plug from the mains

Wear a dust mask. Working with wood, metals and other materials may produce dust that is harmful to health. Do not work with material containing asbestos!

Wear safety glasses and ear protection

Read instructions carefully

Faulty and/or discarded electrical or electronic apparatus have to be collected at the appropriate recycling locations.

Switch off the machine immediately in case of:

• Malfunction in the mains plug, power cable or damaging of cable.
• Brokenswitch.
  • Smoke or stench of scorched insulation.

Electrical safety

When using power tools, you must observe the following basic safety precautions in order to ensure protection from electric shocks, injury and fire. Read and follow all the instructions before using this power tool. Look after the notes on safety.

Always check if your mains voltage corresponds with the value on the type plate.

Class II machine – Double insulation – You don't need any earthed plug.

When replacing old cables or plugs

Throw away old cables or plugs immediately as soon as new ones have replaced these. It is dangerous to put the plug of a loose cable into the socket outlet.

When using extension cables

Only use an approved extension cable that is suitable for the machine's power. The cores must have a diameter of at least 1.5 mm2. When the extension cable is on a reel, unroll the cable in its entirety.

3. Operation

Before setting up, repair or maintenance of the appliance you must always turn off the operating switch and pull out the mains plug!

Before operation

• Check if the rated voltage and rated frequency of the mains supply correspond to the details of the type plate.
• Place the workbench on a stable and even base.

Operation

- To adjust the planing depth, turn the control knob (Fig. 1, A) in a clockwise direction. On the control knob there is a pointer (Fig. 1, A) which shows the planing depth in mm. Turn the control knob until the desired planing depth is shown.

Never alter the planing depth during an operating cycle, otherwise this will result in an uneven surface. To prevent operating errors turn the control knob back to "0" when planing is completed.

• Secure the work piece with clamps or similar.
• Place the front sole on the edge of the work piece in such a way that the planing tool does not yet touch the work piece. The work piece must be level.
• Now insert the mains plug into the socket. To switch on, first slide the release button (Fig.1, E) backwards, keep it pressed backwards while you press the operating switch (Fig.1, D). The planer is now switched on and you can let go of the release button.
• Always hold the planer with both hands on the handles, so as to gain the best possible control over your planing operations. Besides you do not risk becoming in touch with the moving parts.
• When the machine has reached full speed it can be pushed to the front over the work piece. At the beginning of the planing operation, put some pressure on the front and at the end of the operation, on the rear of the appliance. This results in the appliance remaining flat on the work piece and prevents the corners from getting rounded off.
• To obtain a level and smooth surface use a greater planing depth when rough planing and a lesser planing depth when planing a layer. Hold the electric tool straight during the operation, otherwise you will obtain an uneven surface. After the operation switch off the electric tool and remove the mains plug.

Bevelling edges

The V-groove in the planer shoe allows easy beveling of workpiece edges. Place the planer with the V-groove (K) onto the edge of the workpiece and guide along the edge.

Rebating

The rebating depth stop can be used by planing for example a window- or doorpost. Loosen the locking nut and adjust the required rebating depth with the scale (Fig.2, H). Carry out the planing procedure several times (guide the planer with sideward supporting pressure), until the required rebating depth is reached. The maximum rebating depth is 18 mm.

Warning!

• Take care that your hand never comes in contact with the work piece during the operation.
- Only use the electric plane on the upper side of the work piece, never from below or from the side.
- Store the appliance only after it has come to a complete standstill.
- Use a suction device to suck off wood shavings or dust. For this use the connecting pipe (Fig. 2, L accessories) and connect a suction pipe to it.
- Use a holding device to work on small work pieces.

Fitting the rip fence

Fig. 4

• Loosen knob (M).
• Insert the rip fence into the slots provided.
• Set the correct cut width and tighten the knob (M+N).

4. Care and maintenance

Before undertaking any care or maintenance always remove the mains plug from the socket.

The planing tool becomes worn after a period of operation. If you use a blunt or damaged planing tool operational efficiency is reduced and the electric motor might become overloaded. Check the planing tool regularly with regard to wear or damage. Depending on its condition, the planing tool will have to be replaced.

Removal of plane blade

Fig. 3

Use the enclosed open-jawed spanner (Accessories). First unscrew the three clamping screws (6) with the open-jawed spanner and remove the plane blade (3), the plane blade holder (2) and the plane blade support (4) from the holding shaft (1).

Installation of plane blade

Fig. 3

Take the new plane blade (3) and position it between the plane blade support (4) and the plane blade holder (2). Now turn the clamping screws (6) as far as possible into the plane blade support. But not so far that the plane blade and the plane blade holder become detached again from the plane blade support. Afterwards put the plane blade, plane blade holder and plane blade support together into the holding shaft. The plane blade support, plane blade and plane blade holder will now be fastened together in the holding shaft by releasing the clamping screws with the open-jawed spanner and thus the plane blade, plane blade support and plane blade holder are clamped in position.

Attention! Unscrew clamping screws as fas as possible so that a sufficient attachment is ensured.

Warning!

• When installing and removing the plane blade, care has to be taken that all parts (plane blade, plane blade holder, plane blade support and holding shaft) are clean. Dirt or possible existing layers of dirt have to be removed.
• The Allen screws (5) are secured with an adhesive. These screws must not be adjusted. The position of these screws may only be altered by the manufacturer!

Check regularly if the clamping screws are tightened firmly. Always tighten screws firmly.

Corrective action in case of failure

1. The operating switch is switched on, but the motor is not working.

• The electric circuit is broken.
• Have the electric circuit repaired.
- Wires in the mains plug or in the socket are loose.
- Have socket and plug checked or repaired.
• The switch is faulty.
- Have the switch replaced.

2. The operating switch is switched on, but unusual noises can be heard, the motor is not working or only very slowly.

• Switch contact has fused.
  • Have the switch replaced.
  • Componentjammed.
• Have the electric tool checked or repaired.
• Too much thrust, as a result the motor is dragging.
  • Use less thrust during the task.

3. Motor gets hot.

• Foreign substances have got inside the motor.
- Have the foreign substances removed.
- Lack of or contaminated lubricating grease.
- Have lubricating grease applied or replaced.
• Pressure too high.
• Use less thrust during the task
- Planing tool blunt.
- Replace the planing tool.

4. The motor is working, but the planing tool is not moving.

• V-beltworn.
- Have V-belt replaced.

5. Frequent or strong sparks on the commutator.

• Short circuit on the armature.
• Have the armature replaced.
• Carbon brushes worn out or jammed
• Have the carbon brushes checked.
• Rough running of the commutator.
- Have the surface of the commutator cleaned or ground

For your own safety, never remove parts or accessories of the electric tool during operation. In case of fault or damage have the electric tool repaired only by a specialist workshop or by the manufacturer. Use only original spare parts and original plane blades!
