1Correct usage
The SE-EHL device for bench mounting has
been designed to hold the Festool EHL 65 E
and EHL 65 EB planes so that these can be
operated upside down as stationary tools.
2Preparation of on the plane
The chip ejector connection must be mounted
in such a way that the extraction adapter is on
the left of the machine.
3Installation as operational device
3.1 Assembly of the device for bench
mounting
Lay the base plate (1.4) on a flat, firm surface
(table top) with the anti-slip coating (1.10) on
the underside.
Insert the two square nuts into the grooves
(1.8 + 1.9) to fasten the rear plane mounting
(1.11) on one end of the base plate.
The rear plane mounting is fastened flush with
the end of the base plate using the Allen screws
(1.13) and tooth lock washers.
The two remaining square nuts are inserted
into the front groove (1.8) at the other end of
the base plate and the front plane mounting
(1.3) fitted in the same manner.
These fastening screws should not yet be fully
tightened so that the mounting can be moved.
The starting clip (1.6) is fastened in the bore
hole (1.14) by the chain (1.7).
3.2 Fitting the plane
Before fitting the plane in the device
for bench mounting unplug from the
mains.
The planes have a circular opening on the rear
for assembly purposes.
Turn the plane upside down and insert the peg
(1.12) on the rear mounting into this hole.
The plane is screwed to the side stop of the
front plane mounting through the bore hole
(1.2) with the screw (1.5).
The front plane mounting can now be screwed
tight onto the base plate.
3.3 Fitting the swivel hood
Place the torsion spring (2.3) on the arbour
(2.4) so that the end of the spring (2.6) enters
the bore hole (2.5) in the arbour.
Then place the swivel hood (2.8) onto the
arbour so that the other end of the spring
enters the slot (2.1) in the hub of the swivel
hood.
Now turn the swivel hood in the direction of
the arrow (2.7) so that the lugs (2.2) on the
arbour and swivel hood engage and push the
swivel hood down onto arbour.
When fitted properly, place the snap ring (3.1)
onto the free end of the arbour and push into
the annular groove (3.2).
The pre-assembled swivel hood is now
mounted on the front plane mounting (1.3)
so that the lug (3.3) fits into the corresponding
square hole in the mounting surface.
Finally, screw the swivel hood to the plane
mounting with the screw (1.1).
4Safety instructions
Please read before starting work
4.1 Swivel hood
The swivel hood (1.15, assembly described in
No. 3.3) automatically covers the planer head
when not in use.
Do always use the swivel hood!
4.2 Using the parallel stop
The parallel stop must always be used so that
that part of the planer head which is not in use
is covered at every planing width.
4.3 Using a feed device
A feed device should be used when planing
small workpieces.
4.4 Fastening the device for bench
mounting
Before starting work make sure that
the device for bench mounting is fixed
securely to the base (table), for
example with clamps.
5Starting
Suspend the clip (1.6) in the trigger switch and
push over the planes handle to switch on.
This holds the trigger switch in the ON position.
Remove the clip to switch off.
