(2.0 mm). To adjust the cutting depth, rotate the depth
adjustment knob/front handle (3) clockwise from the "P"
position. The cutting depth will increase from 0 to as
much as .079 in. (2.0 mm).
It is recommended that test cuts be made in scrap wood after
each re-adjustment to make sure that the desired amount of
wood is being removed by the planer. Several shallow passes
(rather than one deep one) will produce a smoother finish.
PLANING (Figs. D, E and F)
Warning! Wait for the cutter to stop before setting the tool
down. An exposed cutter may engage the surface leading to
possible loss of control and serious injury.
Caution! Allow the tool to reach full speed before touching
tool to the work surface. Lift the tool from the work surface
before turning the tool off.
Hold the planer in the correct position with one hand on the
front handle (3) and the other hand on the switch handle (4) as
shown in Fig. D. Place the front of the shoe (5) on the surface
to be planed, making certain that the cutting blades are not
touching the surface. Push down firmly on the front handle of
the planer so that the front shoe is Absolutly flat on the work
surface. Squeeze the trigger switch and allow the motor to
reach full speed before touching the planer blades to the work
surface.
Move the tool slowly into the work and maintain downward
pressure to keep the planer flat. Be particularly careful to keep
the tool flat at the beginning and the end of the work surface
(Figs. D, E and F).
Planing Tip
For a smoother appearance, fasten a piece of scrap wood to
the end of the piece you are planing. Don t stop planing until
the cutting blades of the planer are past your work piece and
into the scrap material.
BLADE GUARD (Fig. G)
Ensure that the spring loaded blade guard (14) is in proper
working order before using the planer.
Warning! Cut Hazard. Do not remove guard.
