WARNING. Read all safety warnings
and all instructions. Failure to follow the
warnings and instructions my result in
electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.
Save these instructions for future use.
1. WORK AREA SAFETY
a. Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered
and dark areas invite accidents.
b. Do not operate power tools in explosive
atmospheres, such as in the presence of
flammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools
create sparks which may ignite the dust or
fumes.
c. Keep children and bystanders away while
operating a power tool. Distractions can cause
loss of control.
2. ELECTRICAL SAFETY
WARNING.
The rating plate on your tool may
show symbols. These represent important
information about the product or instructions
on its use. Ensure your mains supply voltage is
the same as your tool rating plate voltage.
a. Power tool plugs must match the outlet.
Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use
adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power
tools. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets
will reduce the risk of electric shock.
b. Ensure that extension cables used with this
planer have the right ampere rating for your
planer and are in safe electrical condition.
Completely unwind cable drum extensions to
avoid potential overheating.
c. Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded
surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges
and refrigerators. There is an increased risk
of electric shock if your body is earthed or
grounded.
d. Do not abuse the power lead. Never use the
power lead for carrying, pulling or unplugging
the power tool. Keep the power lead away
from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts.
Damaged or entangled leads increase the risk
of electric shock.
e. Do not expose power tools to rain or wet
conditions. Water entering a power tool
will increase the risk of electric shock. e. If
operating a power tool in a damp location is
unavoidable, use an extension lead suitable
for outdoor use and a residual current device
(RCD) protected supply to reduce the risk of
electric shock.
3. PERSONAL SAFETY
a. Do not use power tools while you are tired
or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or
medication. A moment of inattention while
operating power tools may result in serious
personal injury.
b. Always use safety equipment: wearing eye
protection, hearing protection, dust mask,
gloves, non-slip safety shoes and hard hat,
used in appropriate conditions will reduce
personal injuries.
c. Wear suitable clothing and footwear. Do not
wear loose clothing, neckties, jewellery, or
other items which may become caught. Wear
non-slip footwear or where appropriate,
footwear with protective toe caps. Long hair
should be covered or tied back.
d. Remove any adjusting key or wrench before
turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key
left attached to a rotating part of the power
tool may result in personal injury.
e. Avoid accidental starting. Ensure the switch
is in the ‘Off’ position before plugging in.
Carrying power tools with your finger on the
switch or connecting to power with the switch
on the ‘On’ position invites accidents.
f. If devices are provided for the collection of
dust particles, ensure these are connected
and properly used. Use of these devices can
reduce dust related hazards.
g. Keep hands away from rotating parts.
h. After long working periods, external metal
parts and accessories may be hot.
i. Do not over-reach. Keep secure footing and
balance at all times. This enables better
control of the power tool in unexpected
situations.
4. POWER TOOL USE AND CARE
WARNING. Before connecting a tool to a
power source (mains socket power point
receptacle, outlet, etc.) be sure that the
voltage supply is the same as that specified
on the nameplate of the tool. A power source
with a voltage greater than that specified for
the tool can result in serious injury to the user,
as well as damage to the tool. If in doubt, do
not plug in the tool. Using a power source with
a voltage less than the nameplate rating is
harmful to the motor.
a. Using the correct power tool for your
application will be safer and produce better
results at the rate for which it was designed.
b. Do not use the power tool if the ‘On/Off’
switch is not working correctly. Power tools
that cannot be controlled by the switch are
dangerous and must be repaired prior to use.
c. Disconnect the plug from the power source
before making any adjustments, changing
accessories or storing power tools. Such
preventive safety measures reduce the risk of
starting the power tool accidentally.
d. Do not force the tool, or use it for a purpose
for which it was not designed, let it work at
a reasonable speed. Overloading will occur if
too much pressure is applied, and the motor
slows, resulting in a poor quality result and
possible damage to the motor.
e. Power tools are dangerous in the hands of
untrained users. Store power tools out of
reach of children, and do not allow persons
who are unfamiliar with the product or these
instructions to operate the power tool.
f. Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment,
binding or breakage of moving parts, and any
other condition that may affect the operation
of the power tool. If damaged, have the power
tool repaired before use. Accidents are caused
by poorly maintained power tools.
g. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly
maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting
edges are less likely to bind and are easier to
control.
h. Use the power tool, accessories and tool
bits in accordance with these instructions
and in the manner intended for the particular
type of power tool, taking into account the
working conditions and the work to be carried
out. Failure to use the tool for its intended
purposes could result in a hazardous situation
and may invalidate the warranty.
5. SERVICE
a. Servicing of your power tool must be carried
out by a qualified technician, using only
identical replacement parts, ensuring that
safety of the power tool is maintained.

ASSEMBLY
Assembly
Release the clamp knobs and remove the saw
from the chassis. Place the chassis upside
down on a flat working surface.
Step 1
Using a Phillips screwdriver remove the
steel bolt and two sets of bearings (with red
spacers) from the rear of the chassis. Retain
the M4 screws and flange nuts for use in Step
4. Fit the bearings (N) (without their red plastic
spacers) to the U-frame (A), using the 3 ⁄
16
" x
7 ⁄
8
" Phillips screws (J) supplied.
Step 2
Loosen the two bearings at the front of the
chassis and rotate them 180° (with the
locating tabs pointing the opposite way).
Re-tighten.
Step 3
Fit the U-frame (tabs upwards) to the slide
chassis using the M6 x 16mm Phillips screws
(L) and 6 washers (K). Note that the chassis
and U-frame are spaced apart by two washers
on each side. Do not over tighten.
Step 4
Attach the bracket on the winder assembly (B)
on the inside of the U-shaped cut-out at the
rear of the chassis using the three M4 x 10mm
Phillips screws retained from Step 1.
Step 5
Attach the U-frame to the winder assembly
by fastening the top saddle (D) into position
using the M4 x 30mm Phillips screws (G), M4
x 25mm Phillips screw (H) and nyloc nuts (I).
Fully tighten the three longer screws, but only
tighten the shorter screw to a point where the
saddle is firm yet still free to pivot on the tube.
Step 6
Push-fit the appropriate chassis hook (E or F
depending on your Workcentre) on the tube of
the U-frame, as shown.
Step 7
Clamp the saw back into the chassis and
fit the chassis to the Workcentre in the rip
position. Slide the chassis half-way along
the bearing channels and while lowering
the tabletop ensure that the rear brace on
the underside of the table locates in the
