which has been set can be read against the
notch (5.3) in the housing.
b) Parallel guide
The parallel guide (6.2) is tted in the threaded
hole (6.1) next to the rear planer platen .
This same point can be used to mount the
swivelling angle guide WA-HL, available as
an accessory.
Dust extraction and
chip ejection
The planer is equipped as standard with a
connection for chip and dust extraction.
The shift lever (7.2) can be used to select
chip ejection (7.3) via the left- hand or right-
hand ejector aperture. Both these ejector
apertures allow the tting of either a chip
collection bag SB-HL or a Festool 36 mm dia.
suction hose.
The chip collection bag SB-HL is connected
by means of an adapter (7.5). The adapter
(included in the scope of delivery of the SB-
HL) is tted by inserting its lug (7.4) into the
lower edge of the chip ejector and is secured
by means of the screw (7.6) in the threaded
hole (7.1). The 36 mm dia. suction hose can
be tted either by clamping it directly into the
chip ejector aperture or by inserting it into the
adapter in the SB-HL.
If used with materials which pro-
duce hazardous dusts the electric tool should
be connected to a suitable extractor.
Working with the machine
The surface to be planed must
be free of metallic objects. Never plane over
screws, nails, etc.
When using the rustic planer
heads (HK 82 RF, HK 82 RG, HK 82 RW) work
with setting 0 mm since the rustic cutters
automatically project 1.5 mm beyond the
planer platen.
The planer is equipped with two handles to
enable it to be guided precisely. Place the front
platen onto the workpiece but do not allow
the planer head to come into contact with the
wood. Switch on the planer and bring it into
contact with the workpiece by pressing lightly
on the supplementary handle (1.7).
