Note: Remove the plug from the socket
before carrying out adjustment, servicing or
maintenance.
8.1 INSTALLING THE DEPTH
ADJUSTMENT HANDLE –
FIGS. 1 – 2
Place the depth adjustment handle (4) on the
protruding shaft to the right of the machine’s
top surface. Push on the handle firmly and
lock it with the supplied screw.
8.2 ADJUSTING THE DEPTH OF
THE PLANER – FIGS. 3 – 4
Rotate the depth adjustment handle 360°. The
machine depth can be raised or lowered by 1.5mm.
Before using, plane the wood a few times to
ensure the surface of the wood is completely
horizontal for later use.
Please refer to the correct wood width range
below, to adjust the depth of the one-time planer.
Width of wood (mm) Cutting depth (mm)
0~100 0~3
160~210 0~2
210~330 0~1
Use a ruler to measure the thickness of the
wood to be planed. Then observe depth label
(7) to adjust it to the thickness of the plane
required.
For example, if the thickness of the wood is
200mm and you want to plane 2mm, the depth
label pointer should be at 198mm. In this way,
the thickness required can happen using the
one-time working process.
Note: The distance between the bottom of the
machine and the knife shaft is the thickness of
the wood when it is planed. The difference
between the thickness of the wood when it
comes out of the machine and the thickness
when it went in is the the thickness of the
wood that was shaved off.
Warning!
Do not plane the thickness over 2.5mm at one
time. The length of the wood must not be less
than 153mm. The thickness of the wood must
not be less than 10mm.
