General information on safety and
accident prevention
The safe and accident-free operation of this tool is
assured only if you read this safety information and
the operating instructions carefully and observe the
same.
Every time you use the machine, always check
the mains cable and plug first. Only work with the
machine when it is in perfect working order and
undamaged. Have any damaged parts repaired
or replaced immediately by a qualified
electrician.
Always unplug the machine before doing any
work on it, before changing tools and when the
machine is not in use.
To prevent damage to the mains cable, always
keep it away from the front of the machine.
When working outdoors, use only approved
extension cables. The extension cable used
must have a cross-section of at least 1.5 mm2.
The plug connections must be earthed and
splash-proof.
Always keep your tools in a safe place and away
from children.
Clamp the workpiece in place to prevent slipping.
Do not plane materials which
contain asbestos.
Observe the professional association’s accident-
prevention regulations (VBG 119) on this point.
Use only original spare parts.
Have any repair work which may be necessary
performed only by a qualified electrician.
Noise levels at the place of work may exceed 85
dB (A). If this is the case, operating personnel
must be equipped with ear defenders. The noise
emitted by this electric tool was measured to IEC
59 CO 11, IEC 704, DIN 45635 Part 21, NFS 31-
031 (84/537/EEC).
Make sure you have a firm footing when working
with the machine. Avoid abnormal postures.
Do not expose your electric tool to the rain. Do
not use electric tools in wet or damp
surroundings or near flammable liquids.
Do not carry the electric tool by the mains cable.
Protect the mains cable from damage by oil,
solvents and sharp edges.
Keep your workplace clean and tidy.
Make sure the ON/OFF switch is in the OFF
position before you plug in the machine.
Wear suitable work clothes. Do not wear loose-
fitting clothes or jewelry. If you have long hair,
wear a hair net.
For your own safety, use only original
accessories and spare parts made by the
machine manufacturer.
The machine vibrations were analyzed according
to ISO 5349.

Operating instructions for the hand-
held planer
MACHINE DESCRIPTION
1 Knob for setting the planing depth
2 ON/OFF switch
3 Safety lock-off
4 Rear baseplate
5 Belt guard
6 Front baseplate
7 Chip outlet
8 Adapter for chip extraction
USE
The electric hand-held planer is for the planing,
rebating and chamfering of wooden parts.
POWER SUPPLY
Before using your machine for the first time, make
sure your power supply is the same as that specified
on the type plate. Under no circumstances should
your power supply exceed that specified by more
than 10%.
SWITCH
The electric hand-held planer is equipped with a
safety switch to prevent accidents. To switch the
machine on, press the lock-off button on the side of
the machine and then press the ON switch. To
switch off the hand-held planer, release the ON
switch, which will then jump back to its starting
position.
CHIP EXTRACTION
For optimum chip extraction, you can use the
adapter supplied to connect the hand-held planer to
a chip extraction system.
Slide the adapter over the chip outlet on the side of
the machine. You can now attach a suitable chip
extraction system to the round socket on the adapter.
USING THE MACHINE
Important: The electric hand-held planer must be
switched on before coming into contact with the
workpiece.
Setting the planing depth
The planing depth can be set between 0 and 2 mm
by turning the setting and guide knob to the left or
right. Always turn the knob until it engages.
When you have finished working with the planer, set
the planing depth so that the blade is lowered and
protected against damage.
Planing flat surfaces
Set the desired planing depth. Place the front
baseplate of the electric hand-held planer on the
workpiece and switch it on. Holding the planer in
both hands, slide it over the surface, making sure
both the front and rear baseplates are lying flat on
the workpiece.
To finish the planed surface, set a very low planing
depth and rework the planed surface as often as
necessary.
Chamfering edges (45°)
You can chamfer edges to 45° both quickly and
easily by making use of the V-groove in the front
baseplate of the planer. Position the V-groove of the
planer on the edge to be chamfered and guide it
steadily along the edge, always retaining the same
angle.
Changing the planing blades
Important: Before doing any work on the
machine, always disconnect it from the mains
first.
The electric hand-held planer is equipped with two,
carbide-tipped, double-sided blades. These blades
have two sides and can be turned over. The guide
groove ensures that the planing depth remains the
same, even after the blade has been turned. Worn,
blunt or damaged blades must be replaced.
Carbide-tipped, double-sided blades cannot be
resharpened.
Loosen the three hexagonal screws (1) with the
enclosed spanner and, using a piece of wood, push
the carbide-tipped, double-sided blade sideways out
of the blade block.

Clean the blade bed before inserting the blade.
Insert the blade by proceeding in the reverse order.
Make sure the planing blade is flush with both ends
of the blade block. Always replace both blades at the
same time to ensure even planing.
Important: Before using your electric hand-held
planer for the first time, make sure the blades are
installed correctly and are firmly in place.
Replacing the drive belt
Loosen the screw and take off the belt guard.
Remove the worn drive belt and clean both belt
discs.
Place the new drive belt on the small belt disc and,
while turning the blade block, pull the belt over the
large belt disc too.
Make sure the longitudinal grooves on the drive belt
are inside the guide grooves of the drive wheels.
Remount the belt guard and screw it firmly in place.
