4. Setup

4.1 Blade Selection and Installation

The wall planer comes with different blade configurations optimized for specific wall types:

• Cement Type: Features 21 blades for a more delicate scraping effect, ideal when the surface needs to be very smooth for subsequent putty application and painting.
• White Plaster Type: Features 17 blades, which may leave a slight concave-convex effect on the wall. This is suitable if the final finish does not require absolute smoothness.

To install or change blades:

1. Ensure the machine is unplugged from the power source.
2. Locate the blade housing cover.
3. Use the appropriate tool (usually an Allen key or screwdriver, not explicitly shown but implied) to loosen the screws securing the blade cover.
4. Carefully remove the old blades.
5. Install the new blades, ensuring they are correctly seated and oriented.
6. Secure the blade cover by tightening the screws.

4.2 Dust Collection System

For dust-free operation, connect a dust collection system to the planer's dust extraction port.

1. Locate the dust extraction port on the side/rear of the planer.
2. Attach a compatible dust collection hose securely to the port.
3. Connect the other end of the hose to a vacuum cleaner or dust extractor.
