Turn the depth-adjustment knob so that
the triangle on the tool housing lines up
with the desired setting on the depth scale.
Plane a scrap piece of wood, measure the
difference in thickness, and then adjust the
setting as needed.
WARNING:
The depth-adjustment
knob should be turned back past the 0
marking to the P (park) after the planer
is used. This will push the blade slightly
away from the surface the planer is
resting on and will help prevent the planer
from lurching forward if it is accidentally
turned on and will reduce damage to the
blade.
NOTE: The proper cutting depth should
be determined according to the hardness,
gumminess, or moisture content of the
material being cut, as well as the feed rate,
and is largely a matter of experience.

WARNING:
Disconnect battery
pack from tool before making any
assembly, adjustments or changing
accessories. Such preventive safety
measures reduce the risk of starting the
tool accidentally.
The edge guide can be adjusted to control
the width of the cut from the edge of the
workpiece, such as when creating rabbets.
To install the edge guide:
1. Loosen and remove the edge-guide
locking knob.
2. Align the hole in the bracket with the
threaded mounting hole. Secure the
edge guide in place with the edge-guide
locking knob.
To remove the edge guide, perform the
steps 1 and 2 in reverse order.
To adjust the cutting width:
1. Loosen the width nut and slide the edge
guide to the desired setting.
2. Retighten the width nut before starting
operation.

Shavings Bag

The planer is equipped with a shavings
extraction port on each side of the tool,
which may be used with a dust bag
or a shop vacuum to keep your work
environment cleaner.
Moving the shavings-extraction-port
selector to the left of the tool will force
wood shavings to be discharged through
the right extraction port; moving it to the
right of tool forces wood shavings to be
discharged through the left extraction port.
Firmly attach the shavings bag or vacuum
hose/adapter (not included) to the
extraction port. The extraction port will
accommodate 1-1/4” hoses.
