Use and Care Manual

EXTRACTING SHAVINGS
The shavings can be set to flow to either side of the tool to suit
the task at hand.
Set the extraction guide switch to point toward the extraction port
that you wish the chips to flow towards.
If desired, attach the dust bag by simply sliding the nozzle onto
the appropriate dust extraction port.
For efficient operation, empty the dust bag when it is no more
than half full, allowing for better airflow through the bag. Alterna-
tively, the dust extraction adaptor can be fitted to the appropriate
port to allow a dust extraction system or a suitable vacuum cleaner
to be connected to the tool for a cleaner and safer work area.
NOTICE: Shavings may jam in the dust extraction port when cut-
ting damp wood. Never stick your finger into the dust extraction
port. Clean out the shavings with a stick, but only when the cutter
has stopped running and the tool has been unplugged from the
power source.
RABBETING DEPTH GAUGE
CAUTION: Always ensure that the tool is switched off and unplugged from the power supply before
adjusting or installing the rabbeting depth gauge. Wait until the blades have come to a complete stop
before making any adjustments.
1. Disconnect the planer from the power source.
2. Attach the rabbeting depth gauge to the right-hand side of the planer using the depth gauge knob.
3. Loosen the knob, position the depth gauge to the desired rabbeting depth, and then retighten the knob.
When the depth gauge touches the unplaned section of the
workpiece to the right-hand side of the tool, the rabbeting is to
the required depth.
NOTICE: The rabbeting depth gauge allows only approximate
depth setting. If it is necessary to rabbet to a precise depth, plane
a scrap piece of wood, measure the rabbeted depth, and adjust
the setting as necessary.
