raise the Drum Guard (17) to expose the Blade Drum
(16). This enables full unlimited rebating
2. Run the planer along the workpiece
3. Once you have finished planing the section take the
pressure off the Drum Guard
Release Lever (3) and check
the drum guard fully covers
the blade drum
Warning: Do not raise the drum
guard if you are not performing a
full/unlimited rebate application
Warning: If the drum guard does
not close completely, stop using the tool immediately and
have the unit serviced by a qualified service agent. If you
use the product with a defective blade drum guard the
manufacturer will not be held liable for any damage or
personal injury caused.

• Wear safety goggles, a dust mask and earmuffs
1. Check that the sanding drum and sanding sleeve are in
good condition and fixed securely
2. IMPORTANT: Set the planing Depth Adjustment Dial (1)
to the 'O' height setting
3. Use the Variable Speed Control (25) to set an
appropriate speed 1 - 6. Do not use the MAX setting as
this will cause the sander to vibrate
4. Depress the Lock-Off Button (6) and squeeze the On/
Off Trigger Switch (5). Allow the motor to reach the set
speed before bringing the sander into contact with the
workpiece
5. Sand with the grain, in parallel overlapping strokes.
6. Adjust the variable speed dial as required
7. To remove paint or smooth very rough wood, sand
across the grain at 45º in two directions, and then
finish the parallel with the grain
8. Lift the sander off the workpiece before switching it off
• Remember to keep your hands away from the moving
sanding drum, as it will continue to move for a short
time after the machine is switched off
Note: After sanding with a drum sander, use of an orbital
sander is recommended to achieve a smoother finished
surface
DUST/SHAVINGS EXTRACTION

Tube (21) to the Dust/Chip
Extraction Port (10)

Switch (9) to select the Dust/Chip Extraction Port (10).
Swing the lever across to close the port you do not
want to use
4. A workshop dust extraction system or a household
vacuum cleaner can be connected to the adaptor
