We, being solely responsible, hereby declare that these planers, identified by type and serial number *1), meet all

relevant requirements of directives *2) and standards *3). Technical documents for *4) – see page 3.

Specified Conditions of Use

The planer is ideal for planing and rabetting of wood and for chamfering of the edges of wood and woodlike

materials.

The user bears sole responsibility for any damage caused by inappropriate use.

Generally accepted accident prevention regulations and the enclosed safety information must be observed.

General Safety Information

For your own protection and for the protection of your electrical tool, pay attention to all parts of the text that

are marked with this symbol!

Wait for the cutter to stop before setting the tool down. An exposed rotating cutter may engage the surface leading

to possible loss of control and serious injury.

Hold the power tool by insulated gripping surfaces, because the cutter may contact its own cord. Cutting a “live”

wire may make exposed metal parts of the power tool “live” and could give the operator an electric shock. Use

clamps or another practical way to secure and support the workpiece to a stable platform.

Holding the workpiece by your hand or against the body leaves it unstable and may lead to loss of control.

Check the workpiece for foreign bodies. Remove nails or other metal parts from the workpiece to be processed.

Guide the tool against the workpiece only when it is switched on. The planer’s sole must make secure.

contact with the workpiece. Otherwise there is a risk of rebound from jamming the tool in the workpiece.

Always get a secure grip of the machine when switching on.

Reverse/replace blunt planer knifes in due time and always in pairs: worn edges of the planer knifes increase the

risk of kickback and reduce the quality of the planing work. Sharp planer knifes provide good cutting output and

reduce load on the machine.

Put the planer down onto the stand (7). If the stand is defective, have it repaired.

Pull the plug out of the socket before making any adjustments, changing tools, carrying out maintenance or

cleaning.

Reducing dust exposure

Some of the dust created using this power tool may contain chemicals known to cause cancer, allergic

reaction, respiratory disease, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some of these substances include: lead (in

paint containing lead), mineral dust (from bricks, concrete etc.), additives used for wood treatment (chromate,

health and safety regulations, disposal).

Collect the particles generated at the source, avoid deposits in the surrounding area.

Use suitable accessories for special work. In this way, fewer particles enter the environment in an uncontrolled

manner.

Use a suitable extraction unit.

Reduce dust exposure with the following measures:

Do not direct the escaping particles and the exhaust air stream at yourself or nearby persons or on dust

deposits.

Use an extraction unit and/or air purifiers.

Ensure good ventilation of the workplace and keep clean using a vacuum cleaner. Sweeping or blowing stirs

Initial Operation

Before plugging in, check that the rated mains voltage and mains frequency, as stated on the type plate

match your power supply.

Always install an RCD with a maximum trip current of 30 mA upstream.

Dust/chip extraction

Third-party extraction units

f you work without extraction device or without dust/ chip collection bag: (12) Fit chip ejection adapter (13) and tun

into the desired position.

Use

Setting the planing depth

By turning the knob handle (2) the planing depth can be set steplessly.

Read the set planing depth on the scale (3).

Set the planing depth only in the range of 0 – 2.6 mm.

Switching on and off

Switching on and off

Switching on: Press and hold in the locking button (4) , then actuate the trigger (5) .

1. Setting the planing depth.

2. Tightly hold the machine with both hands at the handles (2) and (6).

3. Place the front part of the planer evenly on the workpiece. At the start of the workpiece, press the front part of

the planer on the workpiece. See page 2, fig. A.

4. Switch on first, then guide the accessory towards the workpiece.

5. Guide the machine forwards in a slow and uniform manner.

6. The stand (7) is swivelled upwards by the workpiece edge.

7. At the end of the workpiece, press the rear part of the planer on the workpiece. See page 2, fig. A.

Chamfering edges

The V-groove (1) makes chamfering workpiece edges easier.
