[. . . ] Use clamps or another practical way to secure and support the workpiece to a stable platform. Holding the work by hand or against your body leaves it unstable and may lead to loss of control. Rags, cloth, cord, string and the like should never be left around the work area. Inspect for and remove all nails from the workpiece before operation. [. . . ] For tool with lock button To start the tool, simply pull the switch trigger. For continuous operation, pull the switch trigger and then push in the lock button from either side. To stop the tool from the locked position, pull the switch trigger fully, then release it. For tool with lock-off button To prevent the switch trigger from being accidentally pulled, a lock-off button is provided. To start the tool, depress the lock-off button from either side and pull the switch trigger. To install the blades, loosely attach the adjusting plate to the set plate with the pan head screws and set the mini planer blade on the gauge base so that the cutting edge of the blade is perfectly flush with the inside flank of the gauge plate. Set the adjusting plate/set plate on the gauge base so that the planer blade locating lugs on the set plate rest in the mini planer blade groove, then press in the heel of the adjusting plate flush with the back side of the gauge base and tighten the pan head screws. It is important that the blade sits flush with the inside flank of the gauge plate, the planer blade locating lugs sit in the blade groove and the heel of the adjusting plate is flush with the back side of the gauge base. Check this alignment carefully to ensure uniform cutting. Set the drum cover over the adjusting plate/set plate and screw in the three hex flange head bolts so that a gap exists between the drum and the set plate to slide (A) Front base (Movable shoe) (B) Rear base (Stationary shoe) Correct setting The blade's lengthwise adjustment will need to be manually positioned so that the blade ends are clear and equidistant from the housing on one side and the metal bracket on the other. Tighten the three hex flange head bolts (with the socket wrench provided) and rotate the drum to check clearances between the blade ends and the tool body. Check the three hex flange head bolts for final tightness. Repeat procedures 1 - 9 for other blade. For the correct planer blade setting Your planing surface will end up rough and uneven, unless the blade is set properly and securely. The blade must be mounted so that the cutting edge is absolutely level, that is, parallel to the surface of the rear base. Refer to some examples below for proper and improper settings. Although this side view cannot show it, the edges of the blades run perfectly parallel to the rear base surface. Cause: One or both blade edges fails to protrude enough in relation to rear base line. Cause: One or both blade edges protrudes too far in relation to rear base line. Chip discharge direction can be changed to the right or left. To change the direction, pull out the stopper while turning it slightly backward and fit in it in one of two openings on the opposite side of chip discharge so that the recessed part fits to protrusion. Adhering to the insides which might hamper further collection. [. . . ] The use of any other accessories or attachments might present a risk of injury to persons.
