Intended Use
The machine is intended for planing of firmly sup-
ported wooden materials, such as beams and
boards. It is also suitable for beveling edges and
rebating.
Initial Operation
Observe correct mains voltage: The voltage of
the power source must agree with the voltage
specified on the nameplate of the machine.
Equipment marked with 230 V can also be con-
nected to 220 V.
Switching On and Off
To start the machine, press the safety switch
against starting 7 first, then press and hold the
On/Off switch 8.
To switch off the machine, release the On/Off
switch 8.
For safety reasons the On/Off switch of the
machine cannot be locked; it must remain
pressed during the entire operation.
Adjusting the Planing Depth
The planing depth can be adjusted variably from
0 – 2.6 mm with the adjustment knob 4, using the
planing depth scale 5 (scale graduation =
0.1 mm):
Rotation in counterclockwise direction
reduces the planing depth
Rotation in clockwise direction
creases the planing depth
Dust/Chip Extraction
(see figure )
A
The dust that is produced while working can
be detrimental to health, inflammable or ex-
plosive. Suitable safety measures are re-
quired.
Examples: Some dusts are regarded as carci-
nogenic. Use suitable dust /chip extraction
and wear a dust respirator.
Clean the chip ejector 3 regularly. Use a suitable
tool (e. g. piece of wood, compressed air, etc.) to
clean clogged chip ejector. Do not allow fingers to
enter the chip ejector 3.
To ensure optimum extraction of dust /wood
chips, attach the vacuum hose 20 or the dust /
wood chip bag 19 tightly onto the chip ejector 3.

External Dust Extraction
The chip ejector 3 fits on both sides for direct
connection of
Ø - 35 mm 20 (accessory). When using other
vacuum hose systems a suitable extraction
adapter may be required.
The vacuum cleaner must be suitable for the ma-
terial to be worked.
When vacuuming dry dust that is especially detri-
mental to health or carcinogenic, use a special
vacuum cleaner.
Integrated Dust Extraction
A dust/wood chip bag 19 (accessory) can be
used for smaller jobs.
Empty the dust/wood chip bag regularly. Re-
move the dust/wood chip bag, open the zipper
and empty the dust/wood chip bag.
Choice of Chip Ejector Side
(Right/Left)
The chip ejector 3 can be switched to the right or
left with the change lever 6.
Always press the change lever until it engages in
the end position.
The selected ejector direction is marked with an
arrow.

Blade Protector (see figure
The integrated blade protector 21 allows the ma-
= in-
chine to be set down directly after operation, with-
out danger of damaging the working surface or
the planer blade.
When planing, the blade protector 21 is tilted up-
wards thus enabling full contact of the rear part of
the planer shoe 11.
