be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, and personal
injury, including the following:
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS.
- KEEP WORK AREA CLEAN. Cluttered areas and benches invite injuries.
- CONSIDER WORK AREA ENVIRONIMENT. Don’t use power tools in
damp or wet locations. Keep work area well lit. Don’t expose power tools
to rain. Don’t use tool in presence of ammable liquids or gases.
- KEEP CHILDREN AWAY. All visitors should be kept away from work
area. Don’t let visitors contact tool or extension cord.
- STORE IDLE TOOLS. When not in use, tools should be stored in dry,
and high or locked-up place – out of reach of children.
- DON’T FORCE TOOL. It will do the job better and safer at the rate for
which it was intended.
- USE RIGHT TOOL. Don’t force small tool or attachment to do the job of a
heavy-duty tool. Don’t use tool for purpose not intended.
- DRESS PROPERLY TOOL. Don’t wear loose clothing or jewelry. They
can be caught in moving parts. Rubber gloves and non-skid footwear are
recommended when working outdoors. Wear protective hair covering
to contain long hair.
- USE SAFETY GLASSES. Also use face or dust mask if cutting oper-
ation is dusty.
- DON’T ABUSE CORD. Never carry tool by cord or yank it to discon-
nect from receptacle. Keep cord from heat, oil, and sharp edges.
- SECURE WORK. Use clamps or vise to hold work. It’s safer than using
your hand and it frees both hands to operate tool.
- DON’T OVERREACH. Keep proper footing and balance at all times.
- MAINTAIN TOOLS WITH CARE. Keep tools sharp and clean
for better and safer performance. Follow instructions for lubricating
and changing accessories. Inspect tool cords periodically and if
damaged, have repaired by authorized service facility. Inspect
extension cords periodically and replace if damaged. Keephandles
dry, clean, and free from oil and grease.
- DISCONNECT TOOLS. When not in use, before servicing, and when

USER MANUAL 3
changing accessories, such as blades, bits, cutters.
- REMOVE ADJUSTING KEYS AND WRENCHES. From habit of
checking to see that keys and adjusting wrenches are removed
from tool before turning it on.
- AVOID UNINTENTIONAL STARTING. Don’t carry plugged-in tool with
nger on switch. Be sure switch is OFF when plugging in.
- OUTDOOR USE EXTENSION CORDS. When tool is used outdoors,
use only extension cords intended for use outdoors and so marked.
- STAY ALERT. Watch what you are doing, use common sense. Don’t
operate tool when you are tired.
- CHECK DAMAGED PARTS. Before further use of the tool, a guard or
other part that is damaged should be carefully checked to determine
that it will operate properly and perform its intended function. Check
for alignment of moving parts, blinding of moving parts, breakage
of parts, mounting, and any other conditions that may affect its
operation. A guard or other part that is damaged should be properly
repaired or replaced by an authorized service center unless otherwise
indicated elsewhere in this instruction manual. Have defective switches
replaced by authorized service center. Don’t use tool if switch does not
turn it on and off.
- GUARD AGAINST ELECTRIC SHOCK. Prevent body contact with
grounded surfaces. For example; pipes, radiators, ranges, refrigerator
enclosures.
- REPLACEMENT PARTS. When servicing, use only identical
replacement parts.
.VOLTAGE
WARNING!
Before connecting the tool a power source (receptacle, outlet, etc.) be
sure the voltage supplied is the same as that specied on the nameplate
of the tool. A power source with voltage greater that that specied for the
tool can result in SERIOUS INJURY to the user – as well as damage

POWER PLANER 82MM

to the fool. If in doubt, DO NOT PLUG IN THE TOOL. Using a power
source with voltage less than the nameplate rating is harmful to the motor.
.ADDITIONAL SAFETY RULES
1) Rags, cloth, cord, string and the like should never be left around the
work area.
2) Avoid cutting nails. Inspect for and remove all nails from the
workpiece before operation.
3) Handle the blades very carefully.
4) Be sure the blade installation bolts are securely tightened before
operation.
5) Hold the tool rmly with both hands.
6) Keep hands away from rotating parts.
7) Before using the tool on an actual workpiece, let it run for a while.
Watch for vibration or wobbling that could indicate poor installation or a
poorly balanced blade.
8) Make sure the blade is not contacting the workpiece before the switch
is turned on.
9) Wait until the blade attains full speed before cutting.
10) Keep at least 200 mm (8’’) away from the tool at all times.
11) Always switch off and wait for the blades to come to a complete stop
before any adjusting.
12) Never stick your nger into the chip chute. Chute may jam when
cutting damp wood. Clean out chips with a stick.
13) Do not leave the tool running. Operate the tool only when hand-held.
14) When leaving the planer, switch off and set it with the front base up
on a wooden block, so that the blades do not contact anything.
15) Always change both blades or cover on the drum, otherwise the
resulting imbalance will cause vibration and shorten tool life.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.

.REMOVING OR INSTALLING PLANER BLADES
CAUTION:
Always be sure that tool is switched off and unplugged before removing
or installing the blade.
To remove the blades on the drum, unscrew the three installation bolts
with the socket wrench. The drum cover comes off together with the
blades.
To install the blades, rst clean out all chips or foreign matter adhering
to the drum or blades. Use blades of the same dimensions and
weight, or drum oscillation/vibration will result, causing poor planning
action and, eventually, tool breakdown.
Place the blade on the gauge base so that the blade edge is perfectly
ush with the inside edge of the gauge plate. Place the adjusting plate
on the blade, then simply press in the heel of the adjusting plate ush
with the back side of the gauge base and tighten two screws on the
adjusting plate. Now slip the heel of the adjusting plate into the drum
groove, then t the drum cover on it. Tighten the three installation bolts
evenly and alternately with the socket wrench.
.MINI PLANER BLADE ADJUSTMENT (OPTIONAL ACCESSORY)
1) Remove the existing blade, if the tool has been in use, carefully clean
the drum surfaces and the drum cover.
2) Loosely attach the adjust plate to the set plate with the pan head
screws and set the mini planer blade on the gauge base so that the
cutting edge of the blade is perfectly ush with the inside ank of the
gauge plate.
3) Set the adjust plate/set plate on the gauge base so that the planer
blade locating lugs on the set plate rest in the mini planer blade groove,
then press in the heel of the adjust plate ush with the back side of the
gauge base and tighten the pan head screws.
4) It is important that the blade sits ush with the inside ank of the

POWER PLANER 82MM
6
gauge plate, the planer blade locating lugs sit in the blade groove with
the back side o the gauge base. Check this alignment carefully to ensure
uniform cutting.
5) Slip the heel of the adjust plate into the groove of the drum.
6) Set the drum cover the adjust plate/set plates and screw in the
three hex ange head bolts so that a gap exists between the drum
and the set plate to slide locating planer blade into position. The blade
will be positioned by the planer blade locating lugs on the set plate.
7) The blade’s lengthwise adjustment will need to be manually
positioned so that the blade ends manually positioned to that the
blade ends are clear and equidistant from the housing on one side
and the metal bracket on the other.
8) Tighten the three hex ange head bolts (with the socket wrench
provided) and hand rotate the drum to check clearances between the
blade ends and the tool body.
9) Check the three hex ange head bolts for nal tightness.
10) Repeat procedures 1 – 9 for other blade.
For shiplapping, the blade edge should be made to protrude outside
slightly (0.3 mm – 0.6 mm : 1/64” – 1/32”).
Otherwise, nicks and generally poor shiplapping results.
CAUTION:
Tighten the blade installation bolts carefully when attaching the blades
to the tool. A loose installation bolt can be dangerous. Always check to
see they are tightened securely.
.FOR THE CORRECT PLANER BLADE SETTING
Your planning surface will end up rough and uneven, unless the blade
is set properly and securely. The blade must be mounted so that the
cutting edge is absolutely level, that is, parallel to the surface of the rear
base. Below are some examples of proper and improper settings.

USER MANUAL 7
.ADJUSTING DEPTH OF CUT
Depth of cut may be adjusted by simply turning the knob on the front of
the tool.
.SWITCH ACTION
To start the tool, simply pull the trigger. Release the trigger and then
push in the lock button. To stop the tool from the locked position, pull the
trigger fully, then release it.
CAUTION:
before plugging in the tool, always check to see that the trigger switch
actuates properly and returns to the “OFF” position when release.
PLANING OPERATION
First, rest the cool front base at upon the workpiece surface without the
blades making any contact. Switch on and wait until the blades attain
full speed. Then move the tool gently forward. Apply pressure on the
front of tool at the start of the planning, and at the back at the end of
planning. Planing will be easier if you incline the workpiece in stationary
fashion, so that you can plane somewhat downhill. The speed and depth
of cut determine the kind of nish. The power planed keeps cutting at
a speed that will not result in jamming by chips. For rough cutting, the
depth of cut can be increased, while for a good nish you should reduce
the depth of cut and advance the tool more slowly.
.SHIPLAPPING
To make a stepped cut as shown at the right, use the edge fence.
Draw a cutting line on the workpiece. Insert the edge fence into the hole
in the front of the tool. Align the blade edge with the cutting line.
Adjust the edge fence until it comes in contact with the side of the
workpiece, then secure it by tightening the screw.
You may wish to add to the length of the fence by attaching an extra

POWER PLANER 82MM
8
piece of wood. Convenient holes are provided in the fence for this purpose,
and also for attaching an extension guide (optional accessory).
NOTE:
When planning, move the tool with the edge fence ush with the side of
the workpiece.
Otherwise uneven planning may result.
Max. shiplapping depth is 23 mm (15/16”).
.CHAMFERING
To make a cut as shown at the right, align the “V” groove in the
front base with the edge of the workpiece and plane it as shown
in the figure (A).
.USE OF NOZZLE ASSEMBLY
Use of the special nozzle assembly will minimize chip scatter, making
for a cleaner work area.
The nozzle assembly may be attached after the chip cover on the tool
body is removed. When slipping on the assembly, t the pin on it into the
rear cover. Use the chip cover screws to fasten it in place.
.SHARPENING PLANER BLADES
Always keep your blades sharp for the best performance possible. Use the
sharpening holder to remove nicks and produce a ne edge.
First, loosen the two wing nuts on the holder and insert the blades (A)
and (B) so that they contact the side (C) and (D).
Then tighten the wings nuts.
Immerse the dressing stone in water for 2 or 3 minutes before sharpening.
Hold the holder so that the blades both contact the dressing stone for
simultaneous sharpening at the same angle.
