OPERATION STEPS

Adjust the depth of the planer
In order to be able to completely correct and safe operate this machine, User must be know how to correctly adjust.
Very Important!!!

Rotate the depth adjustment handle(F) in a circle, the machine depth can be raised or lowered by 1.5 mm.
Before using, pls planer the wood a few times, that’s can ensure the surface of the wood is completely horizontal in later use.
Please refer to the correct wood width range to adjust the depth of the one time planer:

OPERATION STEPS

At first, the user needs a ruler to measure the thickness of the wood to be planned. Then observe the depth label (H) to adjust the depth label to the thickness of the planer required by the user.

Such as: the thickness of wood it’s 200mm, user wants to planer 2mm, so depth label pointer is at 198mm, In this way, the thickness required by the user can be reached during the one- time working process.

Pls note: The distance between the bottom of the machine and the knife shaft is the thickness of the wood when it is planed; The difference between the thickness of the wood when it comes out of the machine and the thickness when it comes in is the thickness of the wood that was shaved off.

Warning!
It is forbidden to planer the thickness above 2.5mm at one-time.
The length of the wood must not be less than 153mm.The thickness of the wood must not be less than 125mm.

Operate switch (power ON/OFF)
Plug the power cord into the mains supply. If you are using an extension cord, the cross section of the conductors must be sufficient for the tool’s power supply. Avoid inappropriate use of cable. as this can lead to voltage drop and cause power loss and over heating.

Operate switch

OPERATION
Coarse PLANING
Coarse planing is used to provide a reference surface for machining.

  1. Set a small removal setting for the best surface finish.
  2. Process where possible along the grain.

Note: the surface finish is affected by various factors.

  1. the wood’s hardness, moisture content, fibre structure, etc.
  2. Blade sharpness, machining direction, material removal per pass, etc.
  3. Perform test machining to find the best setting.

PLANING
Planing involves material removal of the workpiece to the desired thickness and the machining of the surface opposite a coarse planed reference surface.
The maximum material removal per pass is 2.5mm. Multiple machining passes may be needed.

MAINTENANCE
WARNING :Turn off the machine and unplug the power cord before cleaning and maintenance, Do not use water or other liquids to clean electrical parts,

CHECK AND REPLACING THE CARBON BRUSH 

  1. Turn off the machine, unplug the power cord and wait until all moving parts have stopped completely.
  2. Dismantle the carbon brush cover (W) as illustrated using a screwdriver.
  3. Replace the carbon brush, the minimum length of each brush should be 6mm.
  4. Fit the new carbon brushes. Always replace both carbon brushes at the same time.
  5. Replace the carbon brush cover (W).

LUBRICATION:
