3. If the reading on the depth of cut scale is incorrect, loosen the screw which tightens the plastic pointer and adjust accordingly 4. When you have properly adjusted the depth of cut scale, test your reading by planing a piece of scrap lumber. After planing, measure the planed thickness and double check it against the scale reading. -
Page 15: Setting The Knife Height
SETTING THE KNIFE HEIGHT To obtain a knife projection of 1.5mm, place the knife setting gauge (E) on the cutterhead with both guides resting firmly against the knife. Loosen the assembly by turning the seven screws (A) clockwise with an open end wrench. -
Page 16: Planing For Finish
PLANING FOR FINISH Planing for a smooth finish as well as thickness is best accomplished by taking light cuts on the board. However, several other things are important beside light cuts to achieve a smooth finish. Always feed the board in a direction that allows the planer blades to cut with the grain. This aids the knife in severing the wood fibres rather than lifting and tearing the fibres. -

MAINTENANCE ATTENTION ! - Before making any repairs or maintenance on the thicknesser, disconnect the power cord from the power socket. The power cord must be disconnected every time you make an adjustment or perform maintenance on the machine. - To avoid electric shocks and wounds, use only suitable spare parts. - If the power cord is damaged, replace immediately. -
