PLANER SAFETY
BEFORE USING THE PLANER
TO AVOID MISTAKES THAT COULD CAUSE
SERIOUS, PERMANENT INJURY, DO NOT PLUG IN
THE PLANER UNTIL THE FOLLOWING STEPS HAVE
BEEN READ AND UNDERSTOOD.
1. Your planer comes completely assembled. The only
assembly required is the cutterhead depth
adjustment handle. Mount your planer to a work
bench or an adequate surface.
2. Learn to use the function of the ON/OFF switch,
elevation handle, cutterhead guard, outfeed table,
infeed table and push blocks.
3. Review and understand all safety instructions and
operating procedures in this instruction manual.
4. Review the maintenance methods for this planer.
5. Find and read all the warning labels found on the
planer:
● Read manual before using planer.
● Wear safety goggles.
● Never perform planning operation with cutterhead
guard or belt guard removed.
● Never make planning cuts greater than 1/32”
(0.8 mm).
● Never perform planning cuts on workpieces
shorter than 14” (35.6 cm) in length.
● Turn power OFF, wait for blade to stop and
remove power cord from power source before
adjusting or servicing.
WHEN INSTALLING OR MOVING THE PLANER
1. AVOID A DANGEROUS ENVIRONMENT:
● Use the planer in a dry, indoor place protected
from rain.
● Keep work area well-lit.
2. TO AVOID INJURY FROM UNEXPECTED PLANER
MOVEMENT:
● Bolt or clamp the planer to a firm level surface
where there is plenty of room to move the
workpiece through the entire cut.
● Support the planer so the tables are level and
planer does not rock.
● Put the planer where operators nor bystanders
will stand in line with the wood while planning.
● To avoid injury from electrical shock, make sure
your fingers do not touch the plug’s metal prongs
when plugging in or unplugging the planer.
● Turn OFF and unplug the planer before moving it
to a new area. To avoid back injury, get help when
you need to lift the planer.
●
Bolt the planer to the floor if it tends to move
when planning long, heavy boards.
● DO NOT STAND ON THE PLANER. Do not store
materials above or near it. Standing on the tool to
reach materials could result in serious injury if it
tips or is accidentally contacted.
BEFORE EACH USE
1. INSPECT YOUR PLANER:
● If any part is missing, bent or broken in any way,
or any electrical part does not work properly, turn
the planer OFF and unplug the planer.
● Replace damaged or missing parts before using
the planer.
● Make sure the cutterhead turns in the right
direction. They should move toward the infeed
table.
2. AVOID INJURY FROM JAMS, SLIPS OR THROWN
PLECES (KICKBACKS):
● Use this planer only for wood or similar materials.
● Plan your hand placement so your fingers will not
be in a place where a sudden slip could cause
them to slide or fall into the cutterhead. When
using only one push block to feed the wood, do
not put your other hand on the planer or
workpiece.
● Avoid injury from thrown pieces. Make sure the
blades are properly installed and the cutter blade
wedge screws are tight.
● Adjust the depth of cut to between 1/32” or less
(0.8 mm or less) for best results. A deep cut
makes feeding the wood harder and can cause
the wood to kickback.
● Use the right tool. Do not force the tool to do a job
it is not intended to do.
3. INSPECT YOUR WORK AREA:
● Keep the work area clean.
● Cluttered area and benches invite accidents. The
floor must not be slippery from wax or sawdust.
● Avoid burns or other fire damage. Do not use the
planer near flammable liquids, vapours or gases.
● Before using the planer, clear the table of all
objects not needed to feed the workpiece.
● Avoid injury. Do not perform layout, assembly, or
setup work on the planer.
4. PLAN YOUR WORK:
● Before trying a new or not often used operation,
carefully plan your hand placement. Make sure
you have proper push blocks, jigs, fixtures, stops,
and other items ready to use.
● Avoid injury form unsafe accessories. Use only
recommended accessories.
WARNING

English
5. DRESS FOR SAFETY:
● Plan ahead to protect your eyes, hands, face
and ears.
● Do not wear loose clothing, gloves, neckties
or jewellery (rings, wrist watches). They can
get caught and draw you into moving parts.
● Wear nonslip footwear.
● Tie back long hair.
● Roll long sleeves above the elbow.
● Noise levels vary widely. To avoid possible
hearing damage, wear ear plugs or muffs
when using the planer for hours at a time.
● Planer can throw foreign objects into your
eyes. This can result in permanent eye
damage. Wear safety goggles (not glasses)
that comply with CSA Standards. Regular
eyeglasses have only impact-resistant lenses.
They are not safety glasses.
● For dusty operations, wear a dust mask along
with safety goggles.
6. INSPECT YOUR WORKPIECE:
● Make sure there are no nails or foreign
objects in the part of the workpiece to be
planed.
7. PLAN YOUR CUT:
● Small or thin workpieces can kickback when
they tip over on the tables or the cutterhead.
● To avoid cutterhead contact or workpiece
kickback, do not plane workpieces shorter
than 5” (127 mm).
● Do not plane wood thinner than 1/2” (13 mm).
● Do not cut freehand. Guide your workpiece
solidly against the fence and table top. Make
sure there in no debris between the workpiece
and its supports.
● Use extra caution with large, small or
awkward workpieces.
● Use extra support (tables, sawhorses, blocks)
if your workpiece is hard to hold down to the
table.
● Do not use another person as additional
support or to help feed, support or pull the
workpiece.
● Do not cut more than one workpiece at a time.
● Do not turn your planer ON before clearing
everything except the workpiece and related
support devices off the table.
8. AVOID ACCIDENTAL STARTING:
● Make sure the switch is OFF before plugging the
planer into a power source.
WHEN THE PLANER IS RUNNING
DO NOT ALLOW FAMILIARITY (GAINED FROM
FREQUENT USE OF YOUR PLANER) TO CAUSE A
CARELESS MISTAKE. REMEMBER THAT A
CARELESS FRACTION OF A SECOND IS ENOUGH
TO CAUSE A SEVERE INJURY.
1. KEEP CHILDREN AWAY:
●
Make sure bystanders are clear of the planer.
● Before actually cutting with the planer, let it run
for a while. If it makes an unfamiliar noise or
vibrates, stop immediately. Turn the planer OFF.
Unplug the planer. Do not restart it until finding
and correcting the problem.
2. DO NOT FORCE THE TOOL:
● Feed the workpiece into the planer only fast
enough to let the tool cut without bogging down
or jamming.
3. BEFORE FREEING JAMMED MATERIAL:
● Turn the switch OFF.
● Wait for all moving parts to stop.
● Unplug the planer.
4. BEFORE LEAVING THE PLANER:
● Turn the planer OFF.
● Unplug the planer.
● Make the workshop childproof. Lock the shop.
Disconnect master switches. Remove the ON/OFF
switch key. Store it away from children and others
not qualified to use the tool.

Fig. I
BASIC PLANER OPERATIONS
1. Allow the motor to come up to full speed before
starting cut.
2. Always feed the work in the direction that allows the
planer blades to cut with the grain. Feeding against
the grain will cause the blades to lift fibres from the
work surface causing a fuzzy appearance.
3. Remove all foreign objects from the workpiece. Do
not plane wood that is severely knotted or warped.
OPERATION
4. The planer works best with at least one flat surface.
Place the flat surface downward on the table.
5. Do not plane more than 3 mm in one pass.
6. Proper depth of cut is judged by the width of the
board and hardness of the board.
7. Make sure long boards are supported level with
table at front and rear of the planer. Use extension
roller stand if necessary.
8. Do not receive the board with your hands toward
inside of the rear extension table.
9. If you need cutting to a specific height (19mm,
6mm, 12mm). Move the right side of the height level
to the desired position. (Fig. L)
1. Pull out the cutterhead lock lever (1). (Fig. J)
2. Unlock the cutterhead.
3. Lower the cutterhead until it touches the workpiece.
4. Set the cutting depth dial to “3mm” mark.
5. Raise the cutterhead a little and remove the
workpiece.
6. Adjust the depth of cut to the desired finished
thickness of the board.
7. Lock the cutterhead.
8. Push in the cutterhead lock lever (1). (Fig. K)
9. Start board under the infeed roller so it travels
straight. When infeed roller takes hold, release
board and stand aside (out of the way of any
possible kickback).
10. If the board is long, place it on the top of the planer
and roll it to the front for replaning.

NOTE:
1. Planing for a smooth finish as well as thickness is
best accomplished by taking light cuts on the board.
2. For the best result, plane both sides of your
workpiece to reach the desired thickness.
3. If snipe happens, (snipe is a depression made when
the ends of the workpiece contact the cutters) make
sure the extension tables and support stands are
level with the main table and the flat side of the
workpiece is against the tables.
4. For bowed workpiece, removing the bow with a
jointer is recommended.
5. For cupped or warped workpieces, plane the top flat
and then turn it over and plane the bottom flat.

Never put lubricants on the blade while it is spinning.
To avoid fire or toxic reaction, never use gasoline,
naphtha acetone, lacquer thinner or similar highly
volatile solvents to clean the planer. To avoid injury
from unexpected starting or electrical shock, unplug the
power cord before working on the tool. For your safety,
this tool is double-insulated. To avoid electrical shock,
fire or injury, use only parts identical to those identified
in the parts list. Reassemble exactly as the original
assembly to avoid electrical shock.
REPLACING CARBON BRUSHES (FIG. Q)
The carbon brushes furnished will last approximately
50 hours of running time, or 10,000 ON/OFF cycles.
Replace both carbon brushes when either has less
than 1/4” (6,35mm) length of carbon remaining, or if
the spring or wire is damaged or burned. To inspect or
replace brushes, first unplug the tool. Then remove
the black plastic cap (1) on the side of the motor (2).
Remove the cap cautiously, because it is spring-loaded.
Then pull out the brush and replace. Replace for the
other side. To reassemble reverse the procedure. The
ears on the metal end of the assembly go in the same
slots the carbon part fits into. Tighten the cap snugly,
but do not overtighten.
Fig. Q
NOTE: To reinstall the same brushes, first make sure
the brushes go back in the way they came out. This will
avoid a break-in period that reduces motor performance
and increases wear.

MAINTENANCE
REPLACING V-BELT
Inadequate tension in the V-belt will cause the belt to
slip from the motor pulley or drive pulley. A loose belt
must be replaced. To replace V-belt:
● Turn planer OFF and unplug from power source.
● Loosen and remove screws on right panel.
Remove panel.
● Remove old belt by walking the belt from motor
and drive pulleys alternatively. Gently pull the belt
while turning the pulleys at the same time.
● Replace with new belt. Walk the belt onto the
pulleys in the reverse manner as when removing
the belt.
● Make sure the belt is evenly seated all the way on
the motor and drive pulley grooves.
● Replace and secure right panel.
LUBRICATION
● Motor and cutterhead bearings are sealed and
need no lubrication.
● Gears and elevation screws should be cleaned of
debris and grease
● The tables can be coated with a lubricant such as
furniture wax, to make the workpiece feed
smoother. Make sure the lubricant used does not
affect the ability to finish the workpiece with
varnish, sealer, etc. Do not use any silicone-base
lubricants.
CLEAN PLANER
Keep planer clean. After 10 hours of operation, remove
wood chips, dust, dirt and debris.
