You may not start to operate the machine until you have
read these operating instructions, observed all the
instructions given and installed the machine as described!
Also, note the following important points:
Make sure that the non-used area of the blade shaft is
covered by the blade shaft guard.
Place yourself outside of the area of danger.
Place your hands flat on the workpiece with fingers closed.
Never remove loose splinters, chips, or similar by hand.
Connect the shavings bag.
Make sure that the feed rollers and cutting tools are free
from wood shavings and dust.
Do only machine workpieces the dimensions of which are
within the specifications for this machine (see “Technical
data” on page 21).
Do not guide back the workpiece over the open-running
blade shaft.
Adjust the smallest cutting depth after your work is finished.
Ensure that you always comply with the safety instructions
given on p. 13
Surface planing
The objective of surface planing is to smooth a rough surface
(planing), e.g. to smooth the edge of a board.
For this the workpiece is placed onto the feed table plate and is
machined on its underside. Feed direction is from right to left.
Preparations:
Pull the mains plug before performing
settings.
Installing the dust extractor
