PRIOR TO OPERATION
1. Power source
Ensure that the power source to be utilized conforms
to the power requirements specifi ed on the product
nameplate.
2. Power switch
Ensure that the power switch is in the OFF position. If the
plug is connected to a receptacle while the power switch
is in the ON position, the power tool will start operating
immediately, which could cause a serious accident.
3. Extension cord
When the work area is removed from the power source,
use an extension cord of suffi cient thickness and rated
capacity. The extension cord should be kept as short as
practicable.
4. Prepare a stable wooden workbench suitable for planing
operation. As a poorly balanced workbench creates a
hazard, ensure it is securely positioned on fi rm, level
ground.

PLANING PROCEDURES
1. Adjusting the cutter depth
(1) Turn the knob in the direction indicated by the arrow in
Fig. 1 (clockwise), until the triangular mark is aligned with
the desired cutting depth on the scale. The scale unit is
graduated in millimeters.
(2) The cutting depth can be adjusted within a range of
0-1 mm.
2. Surface cutting
Rough cutting should be accomplished at large cutting
depths and at a suitable speed so that shavings are
smoothly ejected from the machine. To ensure a smoothly
fi nished surface, fi nish cutting should be accomplished at
small cutting depths and at low feeding speed.
3. Beginning and ending the cutting operation
As shown in Fig. 2, place the front base of the planer on
the material and support the planer horizontally. Turn ON
the power switch, and slowly operate the planer toward
the leading edge of the material. Firmly depress the front
half of the planer at the fi rst stage of cutting, as shown in
Fig. 3, depress the rear half of the planer at the end of
the cutting operation. The planer must always be kept fl at
throughout the entire cutting operation.
4. Precaution after fi nishing the planing operation
When the planer is suspended with one hand after
fi nishing the planing operation, ensure that the cutting
blades (base) of the planer do not contact or come too
near your body. Failure to do so could result in serious
injury.
CUTTER BLADE ASSEMBLY AND
DISASSEMBLY AND ADJUSTMENT OF CUTTER
BLADE HEIGHT
1. Cutter blade disassembly
(1) As shown in Fig. 4, use the accessory box wrench to
withdraw the three bolts used to retain the cutter blade,
and remove the cutter blade holder.
(2) As shown in Fig. 5, slide the rear side of the cutter blade
in the direction indicated by the arrow to disassemble the
cutter blade.
