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).
(a) Movable Front Base (11) which is altered by the Depth Adjustment Knob (12)
(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
