blade cover (7) covers the entire knife! Tighten the
star grip nut (6) again.
• Plug in the machines power cord. Press the green
button "I" to start the planing machine.
• Place the workpiece you wish to plane on the feed
table (12). Slide the workpiece as far as possible
with the push stick (16) forwards towards the plan-
ing table (26) over the knives (24).
• When you have finished work, switch off the ma-
chine. To do this, press the red button "0". Then dis-
connect the machine from the mains supply.
• Remove the chips and dust from the feed table (12),
planing table (26) and knife block after the machine
has reached a complete standstill.
• Bring back the planer blade cover (7) and cover the
planer blade over its entire length.
10.2 Thicknessing
m IMPORTANT!: Pull out the power plug before
performing any maintenance, cleaning and adjusting
work.
10.2.1 Adjustment (fig. 4/11)
Place the crank handle (10) on the spindle (19) and
turn it to adjust the thicknessing table (21) to the re-
quired height. The set angle can be read off the scale
(C).
10.2.2 Thicknessing mode (fig. 4/11/12)
Attention! Watch out the right mounting of the chip ex-
tractor (point 8.4)
• Plug in the machines power cord. Press the green
button "I" to start the plane.
• Place a workpiece on the thicknessing table (21).
Guide the workpiece towards the feed table (12).
• When you have finished work, switch off the ma-
chine. To do this, press the red button "0". Then dis-
connect 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.
10.3 Changing the knives (fig. 13/14)
•
m IMPORTANT!: Always pull the mains plug be-
fore changing the knives.
• Pull the planing knife cover (13) forwards as far as
possible so that the entire knife block is exposed.
• Release and remove the four knife clamping screws
(23).
• Lift the knives (24) and knife block (27 from the cut-
ter block.
• Remove the chips and any resin from the cutter
block and knife support.
• Place new knives (24) 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 (27) onto the knife (24).
• Slightly tighten the four clamping bolts (23).
• Repeat these actions for the second knife (24).
• Then adjust the planer/thicknesser knives (24) ex-
actly with the output table. Use a ruler that you put
onto the output table.
• By the two set screws (31), the knife (24) can be
adjusted for height.
• By turning the cutter block and using the ruler, you
can see the height adjustment.
• The knife is exactly set, when the ruler is moved by
the knives not higher than 3 mm.
• After a successful knife setting, all clamping screws
must be tightened (8.4 N/m).
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 x 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.
m IMPORTANT!
Only use knives which are recommended by the man-
ufacturer 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 or the screws have
worn out threads they must be immediately replaced.
11. Cleaning and maintenance
m IMPORTANT! Before any cleaning, adjustment,
maintenance or repair work, disconnect the power
plug from the main power supply!
Machine care
The planer/thicknesser requires little maintenance.
The ball bearings are permanently lubricated.
