Important!
Only use knives which are recommended by the
manufacturer for this equipment. If you use other
knives there is a risk of injuries due to lack of
control. Avoid over-tightening and the possibility
of the thread becoming detached. If the latch (22)
or the screws have worn out threads they must be
immediately replaced.

8. Troubleshooting

(Figure 1)
1. The machine cannot be switched on:
•
No mains power. Check the power supply.
•
Carbon brushes worn. Have the carbon bru-
shes replaced by an electrician.
2. The machine cuts out when idling:
•
Power failure (check fuses). Have the fuse
replaced by an electrician.
3. The machine cuts out when planing:
•
Blunt knife or feed speed too high. Replace
the knife or reduce the feed speed.
4. Loss of speed when planing:
•
Cutting depth too deep. Reduce cutting
depth.
•
Feed speed too high. Reduce feed speed.
•
Blunt knife. Replace knife.
5. Poor surface quality on the planed work-
piece:
•
Blunt knife. Replace knife.
•
Uneven feed. Feed the workpiece at constant
pressure and reduced feed speed.
•
Dust extraction system (not supplied) not
connected. Connect dust extraction system.
6. Chip discharge for surfacing or thicknes-
sing blocked:
•
Dust extraction system (not supplied) not
connected. Connect dust extraction system.
•
Wood too wet.
7. Uneven feed speed for thicknessing:
•
Rubber belt too loose. Check rubber belt and
replace if necessary.
•
Thicknessing table (20) soiled. Clean the
