5.2 Chip extraction (Figure 5-8)
For optimum dust extraction you can connect the
equipment to a vacuum cleaner (not supplied). To
do so, insert the vacuum cleaner tube (c) into the
chip ejector adapter (7). Check that all parts are
properly joined together.
The vacuum cleaner tube can be connected op-
tionally on either the left or right. This requires the
chip ejector adapter (7) to be fi tted accordingly:
•
Press the lock button (a).
•
Pull the chip ejector adapter (7) out of the
mount (10).
•
Insert the adapter into the mount (10) on the
other side until the locking knob (a) engages
with an audible click.
•
While inserting, make sure that the guide (b)
of the adapter (7) coincides with the slot of
the mount (10).
Note!
The vacuum cleaner you use for the vacuum ex-
traction must be suitable for the material you are
cutting.
5.3 Parallel stop (Fig. 9)
Use the parallel stop (2) when you want to plane
parallel to the edge of the workpiece.
Fitting the parallel stop
•
Fasten the mount (d) of the parallel stop to
the left side of the tool using the supplied
thumb screw (a).
•
Now connect the mount (d) to the slide of the
parallel stop (2).
•
The guide rail must always be aligned in
downward direction.
•
Fix the distance required between the parallel
stop and the edge of the workpiece.
•
Fasten the parts with the carriage bolt (b) and
the wing nut (c).
6. Operation
6.1 ON/OFF switch (Fig. 10)
•
The hand-held electric plane comes with a
safety switch which is designed to prevent
accidents.
•
To switch on the tool, press the side safety
lock-off (3) and press the button switch(4).
The safety lock-off (3) can be pressed from
the left and right.
•
Release the button switch (4) to switch off the
electric plane. The button switch (4) jumps
back into its starting position.

6.2 Practical tips

Warning! Only ever bring the hand-held electric
plane towards the workpiece while switched on.
6.2.1 Planing surfaces
Now adjust the desired chip depth. Equip the front
base plate and place the hand-held electric plane
onto the piece of wood you whish to plane. Then
switch on the plane. Push to electric plane over
the surface with both hands and make sure that
the both the front and the rear base plate lie fl at
on the workpiece.
Used a low chip depth for fi nishing surfaces and
complete several passes over the surface.
6.2.2 Chamfering edges (Fig. 11-12)
•
There are three V-shaped grooves (a) in the
front base plate that enable you to plane
edges at an angle of 45° for a smooth finish.
You can choose from three different sizes of
V-shaped grooves (a).
•
Switch on the tool and wait until it reaches full
speed. Place the required V-shaped groove
(a) on the edge of the workpiece at an angle
of 45°.
•
Now move the electric plane along the edge
of the workpiece.
•
To achieve a good quality result you should
keep the feed speed and angle constant.
6.2.3 Planing steps (Fig. 9/13)
•
The planing of steps is possible with the help
of the parallel stop (2).
•
Mount the parallel stop (2) on the left side of
the tool (see section 5.3).
•
To mount the depth stop, fasten the step
depth scale (12) to the front right side of the
plane housing with the locking lever (11) (see
Fig. 13).
•
Release the locking lever (11) and position
the step depth scale (12) so that the required
step depth is displayed. Pull the locking lever
(11) tight again.
Width of step:
You can set the width of the step with the parallel
stop (2).
Depth of step:
We recommend you to set a cutting depth of 2
mm and to keep planing the workpiece until the
required depth of step is reached.
