Such tool as electric plane, is irreplaceable when performing the construction jobs connected with use of the raw boards. On the one hand such material is rather cheap, with another – demands additional treatment. The electroplane will help to solve this problem qualitatively and quickly.
Instruction
1. When choosing electroplane pay attention to its power which varies on different devices from 400 to 1000 W. The indicator of 450-600 W is inherent in amateur models, from 600 W – to the professional tool. Choosing device power, consider grade of wood which should be processed. Than high power, that more effectively it will cope with strong breeds.
2. The basis of electric plane is formed by drum (mill) on which knives fasten. Thanks to the powerful motor, it makes from 10 thousand revolutions per minute. Such rotational speed is noted at Black&Decker brand devices. At electroplanes of brands Interskol and Makita this indicator reaches 16 thousand turns, at devices of Bosh – 19 thousand. On the speed of eletrorubanka separate on stayers who plane more deeply and more slowly, and the sprinters working superficially and quickly.
3. Look at so-called sole of plane which consists of knives. That part that processes wood, is exposed to adjustment, and that that passes across initially processed site and smoothes it, remains motionless. Speed of the carried-out works depends on their quality. Therefore when choosing the device pay attention to metal of which the sole is made.
4. Do not forget to specify also such indicator as depth of cut or thickness of the possible most removed layer for once. The this parameter is higher, the tool will begin to work quicker and you receive the necessary thickness of board. At the professional tool this size 10 times more also reaches 3-4 mm while at amateur planes it varies from 0.6 to 2.5 mm.
5. Except technical characteristics of electroplane, consider usability, ergonomics and availability of additional spare parts of the tool. Planes with two handles by means of which they at the same time push are especially convenient and direct the tool. Devices with spiral edge plane wood with higher quality.
