• Push the workpiece gently from right to left against
the direction of rotation of the tool.
• Keep the feed speed constant. Do not push too fast,
this would slow down the motor too much.
• If you push too fast, you could get a poor quality
cut. This could also damage the cutter or the motor.
• If you push too slowly, burn marks could appear on
the workpiece.
• With very hard wood and large cuts, it may be nec-
essary to do more than one working step to achieve
the desired depth.
• The correct feed speed depends on the cutter
size, the type of workpiece material and the cutting
depth. Practise with a piece of waste material first to
find the right feed speed and dimensions.
• The machine is equipped with an overload switch
to protect the motor. In the event of an overload,
the machine stops automatically. After a while, the
overload switch can be reset.

12. Electrical connection

The electrical motor installed is connected and ready
for operation. The connection complies with the appli-
cable VDE and DIN provisions.
The customer's mains connection as well as the exten-
sion cable used must also comply with these regulations.
Damaged electrical connection cable
The insulation on electrical connection cables is often
damaged.
This may have the following causes:
• Pressure points, where connection cables are
passed through windows or doors.
• Kinks where the connection cable has been improp-
erly fixed 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. Ensure that the connection cables are dis-
connected from electrical power when checking for
damage.
Electrical connection cables must comply with the ap-
plicable VDE and DIN provisions. Only use connection
cables of the same designation.
The printing of the type designation on the connection
cable is mandatory.
Mounting type M
Connection method, in which the connection cable can
be easily replaced without the aid of a special tool, us-
ing a special cable, for example with moulded bending
protection sleeve or crimped connections.
For single-phase AC motors, we recommend a fuse
rating of C 16A or K 16A for machines with a high start-
ing current (from 3000 watts)!

13. Cleaning

Danger!
Disconnect the mains plug before carrying out any
cleaning work.
• Keep protective devices, air vents and the engine
housing as free of dust and dirt as possible. Rub
the device clean with a clean cloth or blow it off with
compressed air at low pressure.
• We recommend that you clean the device directly
after every use.
• Clean the device at regular intervals using a damp
cloth and a little soft soap. Do not use any cleaning
products or solvents; they could attack the plastic
parts of the device. Make sure that no water can
penetrate the interior of the device. Water penetrat-
ing an electric device increases the risk of an elec-
tric shock.

14. Storage

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