We hope that you find this new multi-
planer both useful and fun to work with.
In order to ensure smooth operation,
please consider the following.
IMPORTANT!
General
Check the planer as soon as it is
delivered. Any transport damage shall
be immediately reported to the
transport company.
* DO NOT LIFT THE DEVICE BY ITS
TABLE(S) OR OTHER
COMPONENTS.
If it needs to be lifted, it is most
appropriate to lift underneath the
machine frame.
* Do not use the table as bench
surface.
* When replacing spare parts, use only
original parts and note that all electric
components
must be installed by a professional.
The device has an electronic brake
The brake pulses during the braking
period,
which causes a pulsating sound.
The braking will continue for a few
seconds after the machine has
stopped.
Poly-V-belt cutter drive
When starting, the poly-V belt may
make a short-lasting whistling sound.
This is completely normal.
Space needs
The device needs a space of at least
2m width. The space length
requirements depend on the length of
the workpieces to be planed. The
minimum length is 3 m but it is
recommended that it is at least 4 m.
Anchoring
For maximum safety, the machine
must be anchored to the floor with
screws. Screw diameter 8-10 mm.
Storage
The machine must be placed in a dry
area, as it is not fully protected against
corrosion. If the machine is placed in a
cold area for an extended period of
time, its unprotected components, such
as tables or cutters, must be lubricated
with plenty of e.g. paraffin. It is also a
good idea to cover the device for
additional protection against corrosion.
If the machine is supposed to be
placed outdoors, its unprotected
components must be covered and
lubricated with anti-corrosive agents.
Application
The machine can be used for jointing
and planing of wood, particle board,
fibreboard etc.
Materials that are difficult to process,
such as particle board, teak, etc.,
require cemented carbide steel.
It is not allowed to plan plastics,
aluminum or other harder materials
without previous adjustments.
The machine is designed for indoor
use.

2
Requirements for surroundings
The temperature in the room must be
high enough, so that no gloves are
needed.
Good mechanical ventilation is
required.
The machine must be connected to a
CE-approved chip extractor.
Removal of sawdust and chips.
The machine must be connected to a
chip extractor. Chips that still remain
on the machine must be extracted after
each runtime.
Technical requirements for chip
extractor
Chip extractor must be CE-approved.
Air flow at 0 mmvp "without external
connection" must be around 2000
m3/h.
(Manufacturer's normal air flow
indication.)
Connector diameter = 100 mm x2.
Pressure drop in the machine = 20
mmvp at 25m/s.
Planer blade/ horizontal cutter
Planer blade dim 410x20x3 mm with
screw pockets. Other dimensions are
not allowed.
Horizontal cutter
Cutter type MAN (approved for manual
feed) L=410 mm. The cutting edge
position above the cutter body = 1 mm.
The maximum cutting edge position
above the cutter body = 1,1 mm.
Side cutter
Cutter type MEC (only for mechanical
feed) Moulding cutters must fulfil EN
847-1.
Table surfaces
The machine tables are moulded in
Sweden according to highest quality
standards. Table surfaces are specially
prepared to achieve highest precision
and best sliding properties. When new,
the machine requires a run-in period
lasting until the table surfaces have
been slightly blankened for optimal
sliding properties. The tables can be
slightly smoothened with a hand
polisher and 300 grit sandpaper
in order to shorten the run-in time.

SAFETY
Caution labels
Caution label 1
For your own safety, read the
entire user manual carefully
and do not start the machine
until you have completely
understood its contents.
Wear approved hearing
protectors and goggles.
Hearing can be damaged
even after a short exposure.
Sharp rotating tools.
Make sure that fingers do not
come near the cutter.
Caution label 2
Warning of crush and cut injuries
during feeding and unloading of
material into/from the planer.
Risk of crush injuries occurs between
the workpiece and the jointer table, as
well as against the side frame and the
planing table.
Feeding
Do not let your hand(s) reach
underneath the jointer table. Let go of
the workpiece before it approaches the
machine frame and the planing table.
Unloading
Do not hold the workpiece with your
hand underneath the jointer table.
Instead, hold the workpiece after it has
left the side frame and the planing
table.
SAFETY REGULATIONS
* Persons who do not have the
necessary knowledge or experience of
planing machine use must not use this
machine. This instruction is not
equivalent to any training in machine
planing.
* Ensure that this machine is not used
by unauthorized persons.
* IMPORTANT! All guards must be
installed before the planer is put into
operation.
* Always switch off the machine after
completed work. Never leave the
machine with the engine running.
* Damaged pushers must be replaced.
* Extractor must be running during
work.
* Always wear safety goggles and
hearing protectors.
* Never use the machine if you are
under the influence of strong
pharmaceuticals, alcohol or other
strong drugs.
* Simultaneous jointing and planing is
not permitted, even if it is possible from
a purely mechanical point of view.

4
* Check that all knobs, screws, nuts,
clamps, connector, cutter, planer
blades etc. are properly tightened.
Before starting the machine, make
sure that the cutter can spin freely and
that no tools are placed inside the
machine or on it.
* Never use the machine in poor
visibility conditions such as poor
lighting.
* Fire extinguishers must be provided
to avoid fire hazards
* Never insert tools or hands into the
planer when the machine is running.
* Never make changes, corrections
etc. in the machine until it has been
verified that the machine is
disconnected from the power supply
and cannot be started by mistake.
* As the machine is made of metal, it
should be connected to an electrical
network with an RCD.
Jointing
* Make sure that planer blades are
sharpened. Dull blades increase the
feed power need.
This increases the accident risk during
planing.
* During angle jointing (thickness over
75 mm), the jointer guard must be
adjusted in such a way that it lies
tightly against the jointer tables, and
that the workpiece can fit between the
guard (16) and the clamping device
(14).
* During flat jointing (thickness below
75 mm), the jointer guard must be
adjusted in such a way that it lies
against the clamping device
horizontally and slightly above the
workpiece vertically.
* During jointing, one must never stand
in line with the workpiece, as kickbacks
may occur. The following is
recommended in order to avoid
kickbacks:
- maintain constant feed speed
- keep the workpiece stable
- stand firmly on the floor
- avoid dull blades
Keep your hands away from the cutter.
Accident risk increases dramatically
during jointing of small workpieces.
Always use pushers and holders
during jointing of small workpieces to
prevent fingers from entering the cutter
area.
* Use the lowest possible cutting depth
in order to reduce the feed force. High
feed force = high accident risk
Planing
Make sure that the anti-kick-back
equipment is in place and working
properly. 29
* Always set up the chip thickness of
the jointer
to zero, so that the lever does not point
down.
* Always measure the workpiece and
set up the appropriate planing
thickness before planing. Accident risk
is high if the workpiece being fed into
the planer is too small in height,
so that the anti-kick-back guard or the
feed rollers cannot hold it
* During planing, never stand in line
with the workpiece, as kickbacks may
occur and parts of the workpiece may
be thrown out of the machine. This
applies to both the in-feed and the out-
feed side.

5
* During planing, the jointer guard
should be put down towards the table
and cover the entire cutter.
* Use only original parts intended for
the machine.
* In the event of jamming, the machine
must be stopped immediately. Crank
down the planing table and remove the
workpiece. Investigate the cause of
jamming.
•Excessive cutting
•Resin on table surface
Take remedial
action and
repeat the
planing of the
workpiece.
Panel planing
* Always measure the workpiece and
set the appropriate thickness before
planing.
Accident risk is high if the workpiece
being fed into the planer is too small in
height,
so that the anti-kick-back guard or the
feed rollers cannot hold it
For planing of small dimensions,
use fixtures such as pieces of wood
with an adapted groove extending over
the entire table length.
* During panel planing, never stand in
line with the workpiece, as kickbacks
may occur and pieces of the workpiece
may be thrown out of the machine.
This applies to both the in-feed and the
out-feed side. The kick-back-guard
must always maintain its working
position, i.e. hanging straight down.
* During panel planing, the jointer
guard should be put down towards the
table and cover the entire cutter.

JOINTER GUARD
Jointer guard setup
* During angle jointing, the jointer
guard must be adjusted in such a way
that it lies tightly against the jointer
tables, and that the workpiece can fit
between the guard (16) and the
clamping device (14).
* During flat jointing (thickness below
75 mm), the jointer guard must be
adjusted in such a way that it lies
against the clamping device
horizontally and slightly above the
workpiece vertically.
Use knob (49) for hight adjustment.
Use knob (15) to adjust distance from
the clamping device.
CUTTER GUARD BEHIND
CLAMPING DEVICE (41)
Always loosen the guard knob before
moving the clamping device in the
lateral plane. Make sure that the
clamping device is locked with the
knob (49) during operation.
ANTI-KICK-BACK GUARD FOR
PLANER
Anti-kick-back guard fingers must hang
vertically downwards in their normal
position. Clean the guard fingers and
lubricate them with oil if they are stuck
in a different position. Test the anti-
kick-back function by placing a
workpiece on the planing table just to
the extent that it does not get caught
by the feed rollers. Stop the workpiece
and then try to pull it out. If the
workpiece gets stuck
in the machine, the anti-kick-back
guard is working.
The purpose of the anti-kick-back
guard is to prevent the workpiece from
being thrown back in case it has not
been seized by the feed roller. This is
most likely to happen when more than
two workpieces are being processed
simultaneously.
SIDE CUTTER COVER
The side cutter cover is locked with a
clamp. The cover must actuate a
switch to enable starting of the
machine.
DISCONNECTING SWITCH
In case a fuse goes or the machine
otherwise becomes disconnected from
the power supply, it shuts off
automatically. The machine needs to
be restarted with the start buttons. The
machine can thus be started in a
different way than through the
operating panel.
THERMAL ENGINE PROTECTION
There are two thermal protection
switches in each engine. These
monitor the temperature in order to
prevent it from getting too high in the
engine winding. If any of these thermal
protection switches detect a
temperature that exceeds allowable
values, the entire machine stops.
It is usually caused by a simple
overload of
one of the engines. Wait a while for the
engines to cool down and then try to
restart the machine.

8
COVERS AND PROTECTIVE
ELEMENTS
The purpose of the covers and the
protective elements is to protect the
device and the people around it. The
covers and the protective elements
must always be installed back in place
e.g. after completed service.
EMERGENCY STOP
The emergency stop cuts off all
engines from the power supply.
However, the electronic brake will still
be working. To reset the emergency
stop, pull it outwards.
ELECTRONIC BRAKE
The horizontal cutter has an electronic
brake. The brake pulsates during
braking, producing a sound. The sound
lasts for a few seconds after the cutter
has stopped. The braking time is
shortened to about 5 sec.
Do not start and stop the planing cutter
repeatedly in a row. Do not start the
machine immediately after stopping it.
When the buzzing brake sound has
stopped, the machine can be started
again.
SEPARATE FEED ENGINE
As the feed is not connected to the
cutter, it stops within about 1 sec.,
(loaded) due to low rotational input
speed and low weight of rotating parts.
PREPARATION
For transport and packaging reasons,
some parts are not installed at the time
of
delivery.

Setup for panel planing
* Panel planing thickness can be
adjusted using the planing table crank
(delivered separately). The thickness
setup can be read from the scale on
the machine stand. Feed a workpiece
through the planer to measure it with a
calliper and then adjust decentimals
and centesimals using the crank scale.
Chip thickness up to 4 mm
* The panel planing width is set up
using the clamping device (70) on the
table. The scale at the ends of the
planing table is only for benchmarking,
as the width depends on the cutter and
the profile type.
The spring support (71) in front of the
cutter is set up against the workpiece.
The press roller (74) behind the cutter
should spring 1-2 mm when the
finished edge reaches the roller.
Maximum chip thickness can be
obtained on timber workpieces with
less than 160 mm width.
* A chip thickness limiter is located in
front of the cutter. (28)
Profile blades of the horizontal
cutter
The profile blades must always be
mounted in pairs in the same side
position (facing each other).
Maximum profile protrusion: 2 mm.
Mounting and setup of profile
blades
Put together wedge (D) and profile
blade (E)
Insert wedge and profile blade into the
side of the cutter where the wedge
groove is larger.
Slide the blade and the wedge into the
groove
Measure and determine the blade
position in the lateral plane.
Fix the blade in place by tightening the
screw (F) on the back of the wedge
firmly.
Mount the twin profile blade the same
way on the opposite side of the cutter.
Use the dedicated grooves provided
on the cutter.

12
Vertical cutter
The spindles on the side cutters are 30
mm in diameter, which is a standard
dimension. There is thus a large choice
of cutters available.
At delivery, the machine is equipped
with one
set of universal cutters in which profile
blades or straight blades can be
installed. For safety reasons,
the cutters work in counter-moulding
mode. This means that the locking nut
on the cutter is left-threaded.
Disassembly
Loosen the nut with a 30 mm spanner
and an adjustable spanner. Unscrew
the nut and remove the cutter A and
spacers, if there are any.
Replacement of cutter blades
Loosen the locking screw (B) using an
Allen key (C) and remove the chip
breaker (D), then pry out the cutter
blades (E) from the guide pins (F).
When putting the blades back in place,
make sure to maintain the correct
direction. (The cutting edge must face
the chip breaker.
Mounting and height adjustment
When preparing to plan e.g. tongue
and groove joints, it is
important that they reach the same
height
across the table.
Mount the cutters at an approximate
height.
Feed a workpiece for test processing.
Measure with calliper,
adjust the height with spacers.
Write down the setting on a sample.
The desired height on the side cutter is
set up with
spacer rings.
Following spacer rings are included:

13
2 pcs height 40 mm
2 pcs height 20 mm
2 pcs height 10 mm
1 pc. height 5 mm
2 pcs height 2 mm
1 pc. height 1 mm
1 pc. height 0.5 mm
1 pc. height 0.3 mm
1 pc. height 0.2 mm
1 pc. height 0.1 mm
per cutter
TB 90 blades are easy
to replace thanks to
their fixed positions in
the cutter.
When acquiring
additional cutters, the
following applies:
The maximum
diameter is 140 mm.
The maximum height is
100 mm.
The allowed speed
must exceed 6000 rpm.
Setup for jointing
The machine is ready for jointing with
no need for readjustment.
* Adjust the in-feed table (1) using the
lever (2) under the table. Set up
appropriate chip thickness. Lock using
the locking lever next to the scale. (3)
Setting of jointer guard
* During angle jointing, the jointer
guard must be adjusted in such a way
that it lies tightly against the directional
tables and that the workpiece can fit
between the guard (16) and the
clamping device (14).
* During flat jointing (thickness under
75 mm), the jointer guard must be
adjusted in such a way that it lies
against the clamping device
horizontally and slightly above the
workpiece vertically.

Micro-adjustment of out-feed
table
Rear out-feed table (20) is adjustable.
The table should be 0.02 to 0.05 mm
below the cutting edge of the planer
blade. For easy control of the correct
setup of micro-adjustment,
(out-feed table position against cutter
blades) follow these steps:
1 / Edge plane 2 wooden workpieces.
(about 1m in length)
2 / Lay the planed surfaces against
each other.
If a gap is formed in the middle (the
surfaces are concave), the out-feed
table is set up too low.
Raise the table by turning the
adjustment lever (24) about 10
degrees to the right.
If gaps are formed on the outer side at
the edges (i.e. if the surfaces are
convex), the out-feed table is set up
too high. Lower the table by turning the
adjustment lever about 10 degrees to
the left.
Check the result, repeat the procedure
if needed until the result is satisfactory.
Planing cutter blade
replacement and setup
The planing blades that are already
inside the machine at delivery have
been sharpened and set up
for use. Sooner or later, the planing
blades will need resharpening. Dull
blades increase
accident risk. Sharpen the cutting
edges well using a sharpening stone.
Smoothen the blades to even out the
cutting edges.
Disassembly:
* Disconnect the machine from all
power supply (main switch or wall
plug). Make sure the machine is
powerless.
* Loosen the Allen screws and push
down the chip breaker.
* Unscrew the planer blade using the
adjustment screws.
Sharpening:
* Always sharpen and smoothen the
blades in pairs, so that they maintain
the same width (min 15 mm, total
width) otherwise vibrations may occur
in the cutter.
* The sharpening angle must be 40
degrees. Sharpening angle = the angle
formed by the blade at its edge.
Mounting and setup of planing
blades:
* Before mounting and adjustment, the
blades, the chipbreaker and the
dedicated area of the cutter
(51) must be thoroughly cleaned.
* Insert the planer blade correctly
against the Allen screw. Note that the
blades
are set up vertically with the screw
head. Next, insert the chip breaker.
Screw down
the blade using the adjustment screws.
* Tighten the Allen screws in the chip
breaker slightly (hand-tight).
* Make sure that the adjustment
screws of the blades lie against the
bottom of the groove before
tightening the Allen screws, in order to
prevent the planer blades from being
lifted up by
the chipbreaker.
* Both planer blades should be set up
identically and placed at the same
height as the out-feed table. Use a
gauge block, placing it on the table and
on each side of the blade, and adjust

15
the blade screw(s) just enough so that
the blade scrapes against the gauge
block.
* Test the jointer and make sure that
the workpiece remains rectilinear. If it
does not remain rectilinear, adjust the
out-feed table with the adjustment
lever. See section micro-adjustment.
If linearity problems still persist after
these adjustments, check the level
adjustment of the out-feed table vs. the
in-feed table. This can be done using
e.g. a steel ruler.
Vertical cutter
Sharpening
To restore the blades' sharpness, use
sharpening stone on their flat side.
This way, each of the blades in a pair
maintains the same profile. If the
blades are damaged or need to be
resharpened,
a horizontal sander with magnetic table
is normally used. The surface
directed towards the edge is normally
sanded down by 0.1 mm.
Belt tension
If the V-belt tension needs to be
adjusted, proceed as follows:
Loosen the locking screws on the
engine pipe. These are located
bilaterally at the inner side of the stand.
Make sure that the V-belt is tightened
with the weight of the engine. Tighten
the locking screws.

Table setup,
planing mode.
Necessity
Changing the level
adjustment of the tables is
a serious modification of
the machine's settings.
Make sure that it is really
necessary. The machine is
factory preset, but the
factory settings may be
distorted due to careless
transportation or high
impact loads.
The in-feed table of the
jointer (1) in its upper
position (1 mm above the
cutter body) is
always the starting level for the entire
machine.
The level of the out-feed table (20) is
set up with a ruler according to the in-
feed table settings.
The cutter height is set up according to
the in-feed table settings. (1)
The side level of the planing table is
set up according to the cutter body
settings. (51)
The longitudinal level of the planing
table (23) is set up according to the
machine frame settings.
Out-feed table setup (20)
The level of the out-feed table is set up
with a ruler according to the in-feed
table settings.
The out-feed table is adjusted using 4
vertical Allen screws (M6) on the
machine frame, and
locked using 4 horizontal screws (M8).
1 / Loosen the horizontal locking
screws
2 / Turn the adjustment screws
counterclockwise, so that the table
moves down a few millimetres
3 / Make sure that the micro-
adjustment device (25) is in its central
position
4 / Set up the in-feed table in its upper
position, i.e. 1 mm above the cutter
5 / Place a steel ruler on the in-feed
table
6 / Tighten the locking screws slightly
7 / Turn the adjustment screws
clockwise until the table lies tightly
against the ruler placed on the in-feed
table. Adjust and check on each side.
8 / Tighten the horizontal locking
screws.

Multi-planer maintenance
Note! The machine must be
disconnected from the power
supply during maintenance.
The machine is virtually maintenance-
free, but the following tips are worth
noting:
* Clean the entire machine, paying
particular attention to its moveable
parts, from the wood chips and
sawdust after each
runtime.
* The tables should be regularly
cleaned and protected by applying a
layer of e.g. paraffin oil.
* The cutters and the front feed roller
must be cleaned from resin and wood
shavings.
(Rear feed roller is automatically
cleaned)
* Cutter bar bearings are maintenance-
free. In the initial operation period, the
bearings
and bearing brackets might heat up,
which disappears after the run-in
period.
* Check the V-belt tension from time to
time.
* The motors are maintenance-free.
What needs to be checked are cables
and connectors,
as well as whether the engine
compartment is kept clean from wood
shavings, so that the engine fan can
get access to the cooling air.
* Check that all knobs, screws, nuts,
clamps, connector, cutter, planer
blades etc. are properly tightened.
Regularly lubricate the following parts
with oil:
* Feed roller bearings.
* Lift pins and their upper and lower
bearings.
* The chain for table height setup.
* The feed rollers driving chain.
