passes, if needed. The Rabbet Gauge presses against the unplaned portion of the board and helps the planer cut only to the specified depth.
Chamfering Edges
Note: This technique takes requires experience to accomplish properly. Practice on a piece of scrap wood before attempting to chamfer a workpiece.
1.This planer has a groove in the Adjustable Base Plate (36) for cutting a 45° angle along a corner, called a chamfer.
2.Place the groove on the corner edge that you wish to cut a chamfer. The planer should be held at 45° and the corner should be seated securely into the groove.
3.Follow the instructions under thickness planing. Keep the corner securely seated in the groove from the beginning all the way through the cut.
INSPECTION, MAINTENANCE, AND CLEANING
1.
WARNING! Make sure the Power Switch of the tool is in its “OFF” position and that the tool is unplugged from its electrical outlet before performing any inspection, maintenance, or cleaning procedures.
2.BEFORE EACH USE, inspect the general condition of the tool. Check for loose screws, misalignment or binding of moving parts, cracked or broken parts, dam- aged electrical wiring, and any other condition that may affect its safe operation. If abnormal noise or vibration occurs, have the problem corrected before further use.
Do not use damaged equipment.
3.Carbon Brush inspection/replacement:
a.Unplug the planer.
b.Remove the two Screws (21, 22) holding on the Right Side Cover (19). Remove the Cover.
c.Pull the Brush Holders (63) straight away from the motor as shown in the illus- tration below and to the right. Mark
each Holder to indicate which side of the motor it came from (if the Brush- es are to be reused, they will perform better and longer if they are placed back in the same orientation).
d.Examine both Brushes. If glazed, they can be cleaned with a pencil eraser and replaced. If they are cracked, chipped, or otherwise dam- aged; or if they are too short, they should be replaced.
