Operation - Wen 6528 Manual

WARNING: To prevent serious injury, make sure all the instructions have been read and understood
before operating this tool. Before plugging the machine into the power supply, always check that the trig-
ger switch and trigger lock work properly.
USING THE SAFETY KICKSTAND
The safety kickstand (Fig. B - 1) on the back of the planer swings
down to help keep the blade from coming into contact with the
work surface when the planer is not in use.
The kickstand is designed to swing up and out of the way by it
itself when the back of the planer crosses the leading edge of the
workpiece.
CONNECTING THE CHIP EXTRACTION PORT
Wood dust can be hazardous to your health. Whenever possible,
connect your planer to a suitable dust extraction system or dust
bag through the dust extraction port (Fig. C - 1). The size of the
port is 1-1/4 inch. Hose adaptors (not included) may be needed
depending on the size of your dust hose.
WARNING: Shavings may jam in the dust extraction
port when cutting damp wood. Never stick your finger
into the dust extraction port. Clean out the shavings
with a stick, but only when the cutter has stopped running and the
tool has been unplugged from the power source.
SWITCHING ON AND OFF
The tool is equipped with a trigger lock to avoid unintentional
start-ups.
1. To turn the planer on, press the trigger lock (Fig. D - 1) and
then squeeze the trigger switch (Fig. D - 2).
2. To switch off, release the trigger switch.
