Blade height adjustment is usually not necessary.
However, if you notice that the blade edge is below the
level of the rear base or protrudes too far from the rear
base, proceed as follows.
Loosen the eight installation bolts and the set plate
screws. Turn the adjusting screws clockwise to retract
the blade or counterclockwise to protrude it. After
adjusting the blade height, tighten the set plate screws
and the eight installation bolts securely.

OPERATION
Planing operation
1
003886
First, rest the tool front base flat upon the workpiece
surface without the blades making any contact. Switch
on and wait until the blades attain full speed. Then
move the tool gently forward. Apply pressure on the
front of tool at the start of planing, and at the back at the
end of planing.
The speed and depth of cut determine the kind of finish.
The power planer keeps cutting at a speed that will not
result in jamming by chips. For rough cutting, the depth
of cut can be increased, while for a good finish you
should reduce the depth of cut and advance the tool
more slowly.
Front roller
003887
When performing repeated cuts, the use of the front
roller enables quick and effortless return of the tool
toward an operator by raising the back end of the tool
so that the tool blades do not contact a workpiece and
then sliding tool on the front roller.
