Operation

Switching on and off

CAUTION: Before plugging the machine into the mains power point always check that the On/

Off Trigger Switch (3) and Trigger Safety Lock (4) work properly. Before switching on, ensure

that the blade drum or blade is not making contact with any surface.

1. Plug in the machine, push in the Trigger Safety Lock (4) (Image G) and pull the On/Off

Trigger Switch (3) (Image H)

2. Stop the tool by simply releasing the On/Off Trigger Switch (Image E)

3. In order to restart the machine, it is necessary to operate both the Trigger Safety Lock (4)

and the On/Off Trigger Switch (3). This is an important safety feature that helps prevent

accidental operation of the planer

CAUTION: Please note that the planer blades continue to spin for some time after switching off

the planer. Wait until the motor has completely stopped before setting down the tool to prevent

damage to the planer blades or the surface.

• If resting the planer on its side, do not rest it on the vented side. This will prevent dust or

chips from contaminating the motor

• When the planer is not to be used for a short period, set the depth control knob to the ‘P’

(parked) position and ensure both bases (6) and (11) are resting on the same level surface

Planing

1. Rest the Movable Front Base (11) ﬂat on the workpiece surface without the blades making

any contact with the workpiece

2. Switch on the tool and wait for the blades to reach full speed

3. Move the tool gently forward, applying pressure on the front of the tool, using one hand on

the Front Handle (1) at the start of planing. Apply pressure at the rear of the tool using the

other hand on the Main Handle (5) towards the end of the planing stroke

Note: It is important to understand that the Movable Front Base dictates how much of the

blade is exposed to the wood and this requires the user to apply downward pressure on both

the front and back of the tool evenly during use.

4. Push the planer beyond the edge of the workpiece without tilting it downwards or upwards

Tip: Treat the material as if it is slightly longer than it actually is - the planing action will

continue until the blades have well passed the end of the workpiece.

5. The rate of planing and the depth of cut determine the quality of the ﬁnish. For rough

cutting, the depth of cut can be increased; however to achieve a good ﬁnish, the depth of

cut should be reduced and the tool advanced more slowly

Note: Planing is easier if the workpiece is inclined slightly away from the operator so that

planing is performed ‘downhill’.

WARNING: The planer is very heavy and not practical or safe to be used for vertical planing or

other similar applications.

CAUTION: Moving the machine too fast may cause a poor quality of cut and can damage the

blades or the motor. Moving the machine too slowly may burn or mark the cut

• The proper feed rate will depend on the type of material being cut and the depth of the cut

• Practise ﬁrst on a scrap piece of material to gauge the correct feed rate and the cut

dimensions

CAUTION: Always use two hands to hold the planer

CAUTION: Where possible, clamp the workpiece to the bench

Chamfering

1. To perform a chamfered cut as shown in (Fig. I), ﬁrst align the ‘v’ groove (Fig. II) in the

Movable Front Base (11) of the planer with the corner edge of the workpiece.

2. Run the planer along the corner edge.

Maintenance

WARNING: Always ensure that the tool is switched off and the plug is removed from the

mains power point before making any adjustments or maintenance procedures.

• Inspect the supply cord of the tool, prior to each use, for damage or wear. Repairs should

be carried out by an authorised Triton service centre. This advice also applies to extension

cords used with this tool

Regularly check that all the ﬁxing screws are tight. They may vibrate loose over time.

Cleaning

1. Keep the tool’s air vents unclogged and clean at all times

2. Remove dust and dirt regularly. Cleaning is best done with compressed air or a dry, soft-

to-medium brush like a paint brush

CAUTION: Wear protective goggles when cleaning the tool.

3. Re-lubricate all moving parts at regular intervals

4. Never use caustic agents to clean plastic parts

CAUTION: Do not use cleaning agents to clean the plastic parts of the tool. A mild detergent on

a damp cloth is recommended. Water must never come into contact with the tool. Ensure the

tool is thoroughly dry before using it.

Removing and installing planer blades

This planer is ﬁtted with reversible blades. Blades can be reversed when blunt. After both sides

of the blades have been used they should be discarded

Note: These blades cannot be re-sharpened

Removing a planer blade

CAUTION: The blades are very sharp. Take care when handling them

1. Using the supplied Blade Spanner (17), loosen the 5 Clamping Screws (16) (Image I)

2. Line up the Blade Barrel (14) with the side indentation so the required Reversible Blade

(15) can be removed, then carefully slide out the blade (Image J)

Installing a planer blade

1. The blades are reversible with a cutting edge on both sides. If a blade edge is worn or

damaged, the blade can be removed and placed back the other way around

2. Slide a good blade face up into the blade support block of the Blade Barrel (14)

Note: If only one blade is damaged, it can be replaced without the need to replace the

other two blades. When blades are worn, they must be replaced as a set of three to prevent

unbalanced operation with consequential dangerous vibration and possible damage to the tool

Note: The ridge along the blade should be on the blade face on the opposite side to the

Clamping Screws (16).

When installing blades:

1. First clean out all chips or foreign matter adhering to the Blade Barrel (14) and the blades

themselves

2. Use blades of the same dimensions and weight, or the barrel will oscillate and vibrate

causing poor planing action and possibly a machine breakdown

3. Tighten the Clamping Screws (16) carefully when attaching the blades to the planer. A

loose clamping screw could be extremely dangerous

4. Tighten in the order shown in (Image M)

5. Tighten to a torque value of 10Nm (±0.5); do not over-tighten

6. Repeat for the two remaining blades

7. Regularly check to see they are tightened securely

IMPORTANT: Once all adjustments have been made to the blades, it is important to re-check

that the clamping screws are secure. After a short period of work activity check that they

remain tight and at a torque value of 10Nm (±0.5). Carry out another check after a reasonable

period of use.

IMPORTANT: The planer is designed so that the blades are correctly aligned if placed ﬂush into

the barrel slots and tightened correctly.

• When inserting new blades it is essential they sit square in their slot; that they are fully

inserted; and that the cutting edges are absolutely level, i.e. parallel to the surface of

the rear base

• A metal ruler can be placed on the rear base at 3 different positions to ensure the blade

is level

• Only when the blade is level with the rear base should the clamping screws be tightened

• A further check of the Movable Front Base (11) position can be made by setting the Depth

Adjustment Knob (12) to ‘0’ and placing the ruler across both the Movable Front Base

and Rear Fixed Base (6) (Image K). This provides a reference to the accuracy of the front

base position

• Blade must be positioned centrally on the drum (Image L)

WARNING: If the blades protrude or are not square, they could hit the casing with serious risk

to the operator and others in the vicinity.

Note: The planing surface will end up rough and uneven unless the blades are set and secured

properly.

The examples below show proper and improper settings:

• Correct setting - clean smooth cut (Fig. III).

• Nicks in surface – as caused by the edge of one or all blades not being parallel to the

surface of the rear base (Fig. IV).

• Gouging at start – as caused by the edge of one or all blades not protruding enough in

relation to the surface of the rear base (Fig. V).

• Gouging at end – as caused by the edge of one or all blades protruding too far in relation

to the surface of the rear base (Fig. VI).

(b) Fixed Rear Base (6)

Drive belt replacement

1. Replace the drive belt by ﬁrst taking out the three cross-head screws that secure the Drive

Belt Cover (8) on the left-hand side of the planer when viewed from the rear (Image N)

Note. The front screw is longer than the other two. Take care to replace this screw in the same

hole when replacing the cover.

2. Remove the damaged belt by pulling it sideways off the top pulley and turning the bottom

pulley by hand. Use a soft brush to clean the pulleys and the surrounding area

Note: Wear eye protection when cleaning out the pulley area.

3. With the six continuous ‘v’ proﬁles on the inside, place the new belt over the bottom

pulley. Half-ﬁt the other end of the belt on the top pulley, then roll the belt in place whilst

turning the pulley
