Before Starting The Equipment; Operation - Scheppach EP1100 Originalbetriebsanleitung

Wear hearing protection.
The effects of noise can cause a loss of hearing.
Total vibration values (vector sum - three directions)
determined in accordance with EN 60745.
Vibration emission value ah = 7,78 m/s
K uncertainty = 1,5 m/s

The specified vibration value was established in ac-
cordance with a standardized testing method. It may
change according to how the electric equipment is
used and may exceed the specified value in excep-
tional circumstances.
The specified vibration value can be used to compare
the equipment with other electric power tools.
The specified vibration value can be used for initial
assessment of a harmful effect.

Before starting the equipment

Before you connect the equipment to the mains sup-
ply make sure that the data on the rating plate are
identical to the mains data.
Warning! Always pull the power plug before mak-
ing adjustments to the equipment.
Adjusting the cutting depth (Fig. 1)
The cutting depth can be adjusted in steps of 0.1 mm
in a range of 0 - 3 mm by turning the cutting depth
adjusting knob (1).
Turn the setting knob for the chip depth (1) in a clock-
wise direction to set a greater chip depth. Greater
chip depth
Turn the setting knob for the chip depth (1) in a coun-
ter-clockwise direction to set a lower chip depth.
Lower chip depth
After fi nishing work, set the chip depth so that the
knives are lowered and thus protected from damage.
Turn the setting knob for the chip depth to position
"0" for this purpose.
Fitting the dust bag (Fig. 2)
Push the dust bag (11) onto the ejection port (7).
Note! The dust bag (11) must always be fitted when
using the device.
Parallel stop (Fig. 3)
Use the parallel stop (15) to plane parallel to the edge
of the workpiece.
Fitting the parallel stop:
1. Fasten the parallel stop mount (14) onto the left
side of the device with the long knurled screw (12).
2. Screw the parallel stop (15) to the parallel stop
mount (14) with the short knurled screw (13).

Operation

ON/OFF switch (Fig. 1)
• 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
(2) and press the button switch (3).
• Release the button switch (3) to switch off the elec-
tric plane. The button switch (3) jumps back into its
starting position.
Practical tips
Warning! Only ever bring the hand-held electric
plane towards the workpiece while switched on.
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 flat on the work-
piece. Used a low chip depth for finishing surfaces
and complete several passes over the surface.
Chamfering edges (Fig. 4)
• 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.
Planing steps (Fig. 1 / 3)
• The planing of steps is possible with the help of the
parallel stop (15).
• Mount the parallel stop (15) on the left side of the
tool.
• To mount the depth stop, fasten the step depth
scale (9) to the front right side of the plane housing
with the locking lever (8).
• Release the locking lever (8) and position the step
depth scale (9) so that the required step depth is
displayed. Pull the locking lever (8) tight again.
Width of step:
You can set the width of the step with the parallel
stop (15).
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.
