TIMES WHEN THE PLANER IS BEING USED. WARNIN FOR YOUR OWN SAFETY, DO NOT ATTEMPT TO OPERATE YOUR PLANER UNTIL IT IS COMPLETELY ASSEMBLED AND INSTALLED ACCORDING TO THE INSTRUCTIONS. 1. Regularly check that the blades and lock bars are locked tight in cutter block 2. Planer must be bolted down to a stand or workbench for stability, 3. Do not exceed maximum allowable blade projection over cutter block of 1.0 mm/ 0,040 inch +10%. 4, Never rerove any of the machine's safety guards other than for servicing and repair work. Keep guards operational at all times, 5. Set and secure safety guards in position before operating machine. 6. This machine must be safely earthed. The yellowigreen lead is the earth conductor. 7. Rebating, tenoning, moulding and recessing may not bbe undertaken without the use of special guards. 8, Never make jointing or planning cuts deeper than 3mm /"'. 9. Make sure there are no nails or foreign objects in the part of the workpiece to be planed 10.Regularly check anti-kickback fingers for proper operation. 11.Make sure there is no debris between the workpiece and its supports ‘12. When planing regularly shaped workpieces, plan your work suppor sit will not slip and be pulled from your hands. 13.Use extra caution with large, very small or awkward workpieces. 14, Use extra supports (roller stands, saw horses, tables etc, for any workpieces large enough to tip when not held down to the table top. 16.00 NOT use another person as a substitute for a table ‘extension, or as additional support for a workpiece that is longer than the basic planer table, or to help feed, support, or pull the workpiece. 16.Plane only one workpiece at a time 17.Find and read the WARNING label (see sample on right) mounted on the Planer. 18.Clear everything except the work piece and related ‘Support devices off the table before turning the planer on. 19.

Secure with lock levers and guard(see Fig. 4) NOTE: The chip ejection hood is the cutterblock guard when the machine is set up for thicknessing, Never operate machine without chip ejection hood in place and properly secured. SETTING OF CUTTER GUARD Height adjustment is made with the lever mounted on the left h Guard can be slid sideways to set the required workpiece width for jointing. Push the lever down to lock cutter guard in Position, and side of the machine. After lifting the lock lever the cutterOPERATION ~ PLANING Place workpiece flush on to in-feed table, with your left hand set the cutter guard to the required height (workpiece should be run clear of the guard. Start machine and push stock slowly and steady against the cutterblock. Hands slide over the blade cover. (See Figs. 7 & 8 below) JOINTING For planing the narrow sides of a workpiece release the blade guards lock lever and set blade guard to width of workpiece. The plastic spring on the end of the blade guard should exert a slight pressure against the workpiece. Lock blade guard in place and start the machine. Push workpiece slowly and steady against cutter block. (See Figs. 9 & 10 below) Ensure that fence is set at true 90° (or any other angle required ~ see Assembly ~ Adjusting Fence) and workpiece is kept flush against fence THICKNESSING Prepare machine for thicknessing as described under CHIP REMOVAL WHEN THICKNESSING — page 8. Sot thicknessing bed to required thickness of workpiece (but a maximum 5mm more than actual thickness of the workpiece), Start machine and place workpiece with planed side facing down on to thicknessing bed and slowly push forward until feed roller engages. With wedge-shaped workpiece feed thicker end frst. The thicknessing bed should be treated regularly with a silicone based spray such as Record Power CWA195, to improve the sliding capabities of the workpiece through the machine.CARE AND MAINTENANCE AS WARNING: To avoid injury trom unexpected starting or electrical shock, disconnect from electrical ower source before commencing any maintenance work 1. To avoid a build-up of wood dust, regularly clean the thicknesser drive gear using a brush or compressed air. 2. Lubricate all bearing points and chains regularly with a few drops of motor oil (see Fig. 11). Keep flat belt free of oll and grease. ARXWARNING: If blowing sawdust, wear proper eye protection to prevent debris from blowing into eyes. 3. Clean the thicknessing bed spindles on a regular basis to prevent the build-up of wood chips and dust, lubricate with spray oil (see Fig. 12). Do not use ordinary oil. 4. Keep infeed / outfeed tables and thicknessing bed free of resin. Clean regularly with white spirit, then ‘coat with a light film of silicone spray such as Record Power CWA195 to enhance passage of workpiece on table. USER RESPONSIBILITY This machine will perform in conformity with the description contained in this manual when installed, operated, maintained and repaired in accordance with the instructions provided. This machine must be checked periodically. Defective equipment (including power cable) should not be used. Parts that are broken, missing, plainly worn, distorted or contaminated, should be replaced immediately. ‘Should such repair or replacement become necessary, itis recommended that such repairs be carried out by qualified persons. This machine or any of its parts should not be altered or changed from standard specifications. The user of this machine shall have the sole responsibility for any ‘malfunction which results from improper use or unauthorized modification from standard specification, faulty maintenance, damage or improper repair 10MAINTENANCE REPLACING BLADES AS WARNING: To avoid injury from unexpected slarting or electrical shock, remove plug from power source before commencing any maintenance work. 1, Remove fence then loosen hexagonal bolts of lock bar using a 10mm wrench. Tum bolts clockwise {into the lock bar) 2. Remove lock bar complete with blade from cutter block. 3. Clean lock bar, lock bar seat and blade from wood chips and dust using an oily cloth. |. Reverse blade or fita fresh one on to lock bar. . Place assembly into cutter block and secure by tuming hexagonal bolts counter-clockwise, at this stage tighten bolts only lightly. 6. Check projection of blade against outfeed table. Maximum blade projection over outfeed table ~ 0.1mm / 0.004 inch. (see Fig. 13). 7. Use 3mm hexagonal wrench to correct projection by turing the three setting screws of the lock bar in or ‘out, as required (see Fig. 14). When correct setting is reached, fully tighten the hexagonal bolts. Start with the centre bolts, then the outer ones (see Fig, 15), NOTE: Do not over tighten bolts using a wrench longer than the one supplied, this could possibly lead to stripping of threads. For your own safety replace lock bars or bolts with damaged threads at once. “S73 Hexagonal wrench - 3mm Fig.13 ram Tp tade seting Gauge 7 Gncades nook BELT TENSION After the first 5 hrs. of operation check belt tension.
