7 Tips Tricks
and
7.1

Guiding the paint remover

Always use two hands to guide the paint
remover backwards where possible over the
surface of the workpiece being processed.
When holding the paint remover down, ensure
that the pressure exerted is distributed evenly
over the area of the planing base.
7.2 Presenting the tool to the edge
of a workpiece
A
See diagram A: Hold the paint remover parallel
with the surface of the workpiece. When
presenting the tool, ensure that the planing

area of the surface.

Procedure

B
See diagram B: Guide the paint remover in
such a way that the planing base (9) is always
positioned on the surface that has not yet
been processed. If you proceed as shown,
a narrow section is left over.
See diagram C: You can remove this section
by setting the cutting depth to 0 mm (see
section 6.3) and now always guide the planing
base over the processed surface.
7.4

Smoothing

Reduce the cutting depth to achieve a smooth
surface finish.

8 Maintenance

Be aware of the risk of injury
presented by the sharp cutting edges
of the reversible blades. Do not
attempt any maintenance operation
until the cutterhead has come to rest.
Switch the paint remover off and
disconnect from the mains supply.
Always wear personal protective
equipment, safety goggles, ear
protectors, protective gloves and
heavy-duty footwear during work and
for all setting, conversion and
maintenance tasks!
8.1

Cleaning the reversible blades

Paint, etc. can lodge under the cutting edges
of the reversible blades. If this occurs, clear
the cutting edges of the blades with the sharp-
pointed tool.
8.2

Turning/replacing the reversible blades

Use original Metabo reversible
