5.1 Adjusting the chip depth (Fig. 4/Item 1)
You can adjust the chip depth in steps of 0.1 mm from 0 to 3 mm by turning the setting knob for the chip depth (1).
Turn the setting knob for the chip depth (1) in a clockwise direction to set a greater chip depth. Greater chip depth Turn the setting knob for the chip depth (1) in a counter-clockwise direction to set a lower chip depth. Lower chip depth After fi finishing work, set the chip depth so that the knives are lowered and thus protected from damage.
Turn the setting knob for the chip depth to position “0” for this purpose.
5.2 Chip extraction (Figure 5-8)
For optimum dust extraction, you can connect the equipment to a vacuum cleaner (not supplied). To do so, insert the vacuum cleaner tube (c) into the chip ejector adapter (7). Check that all parts are properly joined together. The vacuum cleaner tube can be connected optionally on either the left or right. This requires the chip ejector adapter (7) to be fitted accordingly:

• Press the lock button (a).
• Pull the chip ejector adapter (7) out of the mount (10).
• Insert the adapter into the mount (10) on the other side until the locking knob (a) engages with an audible click.
• While inserting, make sure that the guide (b) of the adapter (7) coincides with the slot of the mount (10).

Note! The vacuum cleaner you use for the vacuum extraction must be suitable for the material you are cutting.
5.3 Parallel stop (Fig. 9)
Use the parallel stop (2) when you want to plane parallel to the edge of the workpiece.
Fitting the parallel stop

• Fasten the mount (d) of the parallel stop to the left side of the tool using the supplied thumb screw (a).
• Now connect the mount (d) to the slide of the parallel stop (2).
• The guide rail must always be aligned in a downward direction.
• Fix the distance required between the parallel stop and the edge of the workpiece.
• Fasten the parts with the carriage bolt (b) and the wing nut (c).

6.2 Practical tips
Warning! Only ever bring the hand-held electric plane towards the workpiece while switched on.
6.2.1 Planing surfaces
Now adjust the desired chip depth. Equip the front base plate and place the hand-held electric plane onto the piece of wood you wish to plane. Then switch on the plane. Push to electric plane over the surface with both hands and make sure that both the front and the rear base plate lie fl at on the workpiece.
Used a low chip depth for fi finishing surfaces and completed several passes over the surface.
6.2.2 Chamfering edges (Fig. 11-12)

• There are three V-shaped grooves (a) in the front base plate that enable you to plane edges at an angle of 45° for a smooth finish. You can choose from three different sizes of V-shaped grooves (a).
• Switch on the tool and wait until it reaches full speed. Place the required V-shaped groove (a) on the edge of the workpiece at an angle of 45°.
• Now move the electric plane along the edge of the workpiece.
• To achieve a good quality result you should keep the feed speed and angle constant.

6.2.3 Planing steps (Fig. 9/13)

• The planning of steps is possible with the help of the parallel stop (2).
• Mount the parallel stop (2) on the left side of the tool (see section 5.3).
• To mount the depth stop, fasten the step depth scale (12) to the front right side of the plane housing with the locking lever (11) (see Fig. 13).
• Release the locking lever (11) and position the step depth scale (12) so that the required step depth is displayed. Pull the locking lever (11) tight again.

Width of step: You can set the width of the step with the parallel stop (2).
Depth of step: We recommend you to set a cutting depth of 2 mm and to keep planning the workpiece until the required depth of step is reached.

Replacing the power cable

Danger!
If the power cable for this equipment is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or its after-sales service or similarly trained personnel to avoid danger.

Cleaning, maintenance, and ordering of spare parts

Danger!
Always pull out the mains’ power plug before starting any cleaning work.
8.1 Cleaning

• Keep all safety devices, air vents, and motor housing free of dirt and dust as far as possible. Wipe the equipment with a clean cloth or blow it with compressed air at low pressure.
• We recommend that you clean the device immediately each time you have finished using it.
• Clean the equipment regularly with a moist cloth and some soft soap. Do not use cleaning agents or solvents; these could attack the plastic parts of the equipment.
  Ensure that no water can seep into the device. The ingress of water into an electric tool increases the risk of an electric shock.

8.2 Carbon brushes
In case of excessive sparking, have the carbon brushes checked only by a qualifi ed electrician.
Danger! The carbon brushes should not be rep laced by anyone but a qualifi ed electrician.
8.3. Changing the planing knives (Fig. 14-16)
Danger! Always pull the plug out of the power socket before doing any work on the equipment.
