STARTING AND STOPPING THE PLANER
LOCKING THE PLANER USING THE SAFETY KEY
OPERATION
Make sure that the switch is in the "OFF" position before plugging cord into outlet. Do not touch
the plug’s metal prongs when unplugging or plugging in the cord.
In the event of a power outage (such as a breaker or fuse trip), always move the switch to the
"OFF" position until the main power is restored.
The ON/OFF switch (A), indicated in Figure 3, is located on the front of the cabinet. To turn the machine “ON,” move the
switch to the up position. To turn the machine “OFF,” move the switch to the down position.
FIGURE 3
1. This machine uses a safety key (B), shown in Figure 3,
that enables you to lock the tool in the “OFF” position
when not in use.
IMPORTANT: When the machine is not in use, the
switch should be locked in the "OFF" position to prevent
unauthorized use.
2. To lock the machine, remove the safety key by pulling
it straight out. With the safety key removed, the
switch will not operate.
3. Should the safety key be removed while the tool
is running, the machine can be turned "OFF,"
but cannot be restarted unless the safety key is
re-inserted.
RESETTING THE ON-BOARD CIRCUIT BREAKER
As an additional safety feature, the DELTA
®
22-555 has an on-board
circuit breaker (C), shown in Figure 3. Should the motor become
overloaded or should a power surge occur while the machine is
operating, the circuit breaker will trip, cutting power to the machine.
In the event the breaker trips, do the following:
1. Turn the machine off and unplug the power cord.
2. Raise the cutterhead and remove the workpiece from the machine.
3. Wait 2 to 3 minutes or until the motor housing is cool to the touch,
then depress the on-board circuit breaker reset.
4. Plug the power cord in and restart the machine using the ON/OFF
switch.
5. If the machine fails to start, allow the motor to cool further and
attempt to reset the breaker again.

ADJUSTING CUTTING HEIGHT
Refer to Figure 4
Your DELTA
®
22-555 Bench Planer can accept stock up
to 6” in height and has a maximum cutting depth of 3/32”
per pass. To adjust the height of the cutterhead:
1. Rotate the Height Adjustment Handle until the Height
Indicator (A) is pointing to the desired height. Turning
the handle clockwise raises the cutterhead while
turning it counterclockwise lowers it. One complete
revolution of the Height Adjustment Handle moves
the cutterhead 1/16”.
