General safety rules
Read all safety warnings
and all instructions. Failure to follow the
warnings and instructions may result in
electric shock, fi re and/or serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for
future reference.
The term “power tool” in the warnings refers
to your mains-operated (corded) power tool
or battery-operated (cordless) power tool.
1 WORK AREA SAFETY
a) Keep work area clean and well lit.
Cluttered and dark areas invite accidents.
b) Do not operate power tools in explosive
atmospheres, such as in the presence of
fl ammable liquids, gases or dust. Power
tools create sparks which may ignite the dust
or fumes.
c) Keep children and bystanders away
while operating a power tool. Distractions
can cause you to lose control.
2 ELECTRICAL SAFETY
a) Power tool plugs must match the
outlet. Never modify the plug in any
way. Do not use any adapter plugs
with earthed (grounded) power tools.
Unmodifi ed plugs and matching outlets will
reduce risk of electric shock.
b) Avoid body contact with earthed
or grounded surfaces, such as pipes,
radiators, ranges and refrigerators.
There is an increased risk of electric shock if
your body is earthed or grounded.
c) Do not expose power tools to rain or
wet conditions. Water entering a power tool
will increase the risk of electric shock.
d) Do not abuse the cord. Never use the
cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging
the power tool. Keep cord away from
heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts.
Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk
of electric shock.
e) When operating a power tool outdoors,
use an extension cord suitable for
outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable for
outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.
f) If operating a power tool in a damp
location is unavoidable, use a residual
current device (RCD) protected supply.
Use of an RCD reduces the risk of electric shock.
3 PERSONAL SAFETY
a) Stay alert, watch what you are doing
and use common sense when operating a
power tool. Do not use a power tool while
you are tired or under the infl uence of
drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of
inattention while operating power tools may
result in serious personal injury.
b) Use personal protective equipment.
Always wear eye protection. Protective
equipment such as dust mask, non skid safety
shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used
for appropriate conditions will reduce personal
injuries.
c) Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure
the switch is in the off-position before
connecting to power source and/or
battery pack, picking up or carrying the
tool. Carrying power tools with your fi nger
on the switch or energising power tools that
have the switch on invites accidents.
3
d) Remove any adjusting key or wrench
before turning the power tool on. A wrench
or a key left attached to a rotating part of
the power tool may result in personal injury.
e) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing
and balance at all times. This enables
better control of the power tool in unexpected
situations.
f) Dress properly. Do not wear loose
clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair,
clothing and gloves away from moving
parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair
can be caught in moving parts.
g) If devices are provided for the
connection of dust extraction and
collection facilities, ensure these are
connected and properly used. Use of dust
collection can reduce dust-related hazards.
4 POWER TOOL USE AND CARE
a) Do not force the power tool. Use the
correct power tool for your application.
The correct power tool will do the job
better and safer at the rate for which it was
designed.
b) Do not use the power tool if the switch
does not turn it on and off. Any power tool
that cannot be controlled with the switch is
dangerous and must be repaired.
c) Disconnect the plug from the power
source and/or battery pack from
the power tool before making any
adjustments, changing accessories, or
storing power tools. Such preventive safety
measures reduce the risk of starting the power
tool accidentally.
d) Store idle power tools out of the reach
of children and do not allow persons
unfamiliar with the power tool or these
instructions to operate the power tool.
Power tools are dangerous in the hands of
untrained users.
e) Maintain power tools. Check for
misalignment or binding of moving
parts, breakage of parts and any other
condition that may affect the power
tool‘s operation. If damaged, have the
power tool repaired before use. Many
accidents are caused by poorly maintained
power tools.
f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.
Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp
cutting edges are less likely to bind and are
easier to control.
g) Use the power tool, accessories and
tool bits etc. in accordance with these
instructions taking into account the
working conditions and the work to
be performed. Use of the power tool for
operations different from those intended could
result in a hazardous situation.
5 SERVICE
a) Have your power tool serviced by
a qualified repair person using only
identical replacement parts. This will
ensure that the safety of the power tool is
maintained.
Planer Safety rules
Wait for the cutter to stop before –
setting the tool down. An exposed cutter
may engage the surface leading to possible
loss of control and serious injury.
Use clamps or another practical way to –
secure and support the workpiece to a
stable platform. Holding the work by hand
or against your body leaves it unstable and
may lead to loss of controll.
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY,
USER MUST READ INSTRUCTION MANUAL.
Various dust created by power
sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling and other
construction activities contains chemicals
known (to the State of California) to cause
cancer, birth defects or other reproductive
harm. Some examples of these chemicals
are:
• Lead from lead-based paints,
• Crystalline silica from bricks and cement and
other masonry products,
• Arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated
lumber.
The risk from these exposures varies,
depending on how often you do this type of
work.
To reduce your exposure to these
chemicals work in a well ventilated area and use approved safety
equipment, such as dust masks
that are specially designed to fi lter
out microscopic particles.

Use for intended purpose
The HL 850 E planer together with the available
Festool accessories is designed for processing
wood, soft plastics and similar materials.
The user shall be liable for damages
and accidents due to incorrect use.
5
Electrical connec-
tion and operation
The supply voltage must comply with the voltage given on the ratings plate.
The switch (1.2) is used as an on/off switch.
For your safety this is equipped with a switchon interlock (1.1 ). In order to run the planer
the switch-on interlock must fi rst be pressed
and then the switch.
Extension cable
If an extension cable is required, it must have
a suffi cient cross-section so as to prevent an
excessive drop in voltage or overheating. An
excessive drop in voltage reduces the output
and can lead to failure of the motor. The table
shows the correct size to use, depending on
cord length and tool‘s ampere rating. Use only
U.L. and CSA listed extension cables. Never
use two extension cables together. Instead,
use one long one.

Electronic control
The devices are fi tted with a full-wave elec-
tronic control with the following functions:
Smooth start-up
The electronically-controlled smooth startup ensures that the machine starts without
jolts.
Idling speed
The electronic circuit limits the idling speed.
This means that the noise level also remains
low during idling.
Constant speed
The speed of the planer shaft is electronically
regulated to a constant value, thus also providing a constant cutting speed under load.
Temperature protection
Extreme overload in continuous running will
cause the motor to overheat. An electronic
6
temperature monitoring device is fi tted to
provide protection against overheating (burning-out of the motor). The electronic safety
device switches off the motor before a critical
motor temperature is reached. After a cooling
period of approx. 3-5 minutes, the machine
is once again ready for use at full load. If the
machine is kept running (idling), the cooling
period is reduced.
Do not work with the planer if the electronic
control is defective, since this may lead to excessive speeds. A defect in the electronic control is indicated by the absence of a smooth
run-up, a higher noise level at idle or the fact
that no speed control is possible.
Machine settings
Always disconnect the plug from
the power supply before making any adjustments to the machine or installing or removing any accessory!

Chip thickness adjustment
After the interlock (2.2) has been released by
pushing it backward, the chip thickness can be
infi nitely adjusted between 0 mm and 3.5 mm
by turning the supplementary handle (2.3).
The chip thickness which has been set can be
read in the scale window (2.1). One division
corresponds to a chip removal of 0.1 mm.
If a constant chip thickness is to be set the
interlock must be pressed forward again after
the chip thickness has been adjusted. If the
chip thickness has to be varied during operation (fi tting work) the interlock should be left
open.
The supplementary handle can be turned
beyond the 0 mm mark to reach the P (=
Park) position, in which the spiral cutter is
completely retracted. This is, however, not
the case with the rustic planer heads.
Always ensure, therefore, that
when setting the machine down on a surface
the parking device (1.8) at the end of the
planer platen is correctly extended.

3.1
Planer heads and spi-
ral cutters
Use only cutters which are sharp
and undamaged. Blunt cutters increase the
danger of kick-back and reduce the planing
quality obtained.
The planer is equipped with planer head HK
82 SD as standard series. The planer head
has inclined, fi tted cutters, which is why the
cutters cannot be reground.
a) Changing the planer head
Use the spindle stop (3.5) to lock the planer
shaft and unscrew the allen bolt (3.1) from
the planer head (3.4) using the allen key
(3.6). Remove the planer head from the
planer shaft.
Before fi tting the new planer head clean the
planer shaft to remove any dust residues.
The planer head can be fi tted to the planer
shaft in reverse order using the clamping
fl ange (3.3), washer (3.2) and allen bolt
(3.6).
4.5
b) Changing the planer blade
4.2 4.3 4.44.1
Use the allen key (4.1) to loosen the three
allen bolts (4.5) in the planer head until the
planer blade can be removed.
Before the new blade is fi tted the cutter slot
must be cleaned. This ensures that the cutter is automatically correctly adjusted after
fi tting.
Push the new planer blade (4.4) into the
groove in the tool carrier with the labelled
side facing towards the rear planer platen.
Before you retighten the clamping screws use
a ruler (4.2) to align the blade in such a way
that its face lies fl ush with the front and rear
planer platen (4.3). Finally tighten fi rst the
centre clamping screw and then two outer
clamping screws.
Fitting the guides
The scope of delivery of the planer includes a
5.2

5.1
rebating depth guide and a parallel guide.
a) Rebating depth guide
The rebating depth guide (5.1) is mounted
in the threaded hole (5.2) on the front right
of the machine. The stop can be infi nitely
adjusted to between 0 mm and 30 mm in accordance with the scale. The rebating depth

which has been set can be read against the
notch (5.3) in the housing.
b) Parallel guide
The parallel guide (6.2) is fi 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 righthand ejector aperture. Both these ejector
apertures allow the fi 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 SBHL) is fi 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 fi 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 produce 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).
9
8.1
o
8.2
The following basic rule applies for planing
wood: Optimum surface quality will be obtained by pressing on the front planer platen
when starting to plane and on the rear planer
platen (end of workpiece) when continuing or
fi nishing planing.
If the parking device should be found obstructive during special planing work it can
be swung back out of the way and locked in
position (8.2).
Always ensure, that when setting
the machine down on a surface the parking
device is correctly extended (8.1).
n
Rebating
9.1
9.2
9.3
The planer head is supported by a bearing on
one side only, thus allowing rebates of unlimited size to be cut with the planer. For this
purpose, the protective cover (9.2) must be
folded away. To do this, press the lever (9.1)
fi rst forwards and then to the left. This raises
the protective cover over the planer head to
the machine‘s housing, thus exposing the face
of the planer head.
At the end of work the protective cover automatically returns to its position over the
planer head.
Chamfering
The front planer platen is equipped with a
90° V groove (9.3) to allow the chamfering
of workpiece edges. This V groove is 2 mm
deep, thus producing a 2 mm edge chamfer
with the chip thickness setting 0 mm.
10
Bench-mounted operation
The planer can be operated bench-mounted in
conjunction with the bench-mounting device
SE-HL and the angle guide WA-HL. Detailed
instructions are supplied with each of these
accessories.
The angle guide can also be fi tted in place of
the parallel guide, supplied as standard with
the machine, and can be used for hand-guided
operation. The angle guide can be swivelled
to between 0° and 45°.

11.1
Rustic planer heads
(accessories)
The planer can also be used to create rustic
surfaces. Three rustic planer heads are available for this purpose:
• HK 82 RG: creates a surface with a coarse structure.
• HK 82 RG: creates a surface with a fi ne struc-
ture.
• HK 82 RW: creates an uneven, wavy surface.

11.2
The blades on the rustic planing head (HK 82
RF, HK 82 RG, HK 82 RW) protrude approx.
1.5 mm over the planer foot. When using
rustic planing heads on the planer, set the
cutting depth to 0 mm. Otherwise there is a
risk that the blades on the head will cut into
the planer foot and destroy the planer.
The cutting depth limiter (11.2) prevents the
cutting depth from increasing inadvertently
while planing work is performed.
Always attach the cutting depth limiter to the
planer before working with a rustic planing
head:
- Set the cutting depth on the planer to 0 mm,
- Attach the cutting depth limiter by inserting the
rotary knob (11.1) through the limiter and into
the threaded hole (11.3).

Systainer
Many Festool products are shipped in a
unique system container, called "Systainer".
This provides protection and storage for the
tool and accessories. The Systainers are
stackable and can be interlocked together.
They also can be interlocked atop Festool CT
dust extractors.
- Place one systainer on top of the other.
- Release all four latches on the lower systainer
by pulling back at their top edges (12.1).
- Slide all four latches upward (12.2).
- Snap all four latches back to their fl at position
(12.3) so they engage the stacking tabs of the
upper systainer.
Maintenance and service
Always disconnect the mains plug
from the socket before carrying out any maintenance work on the machine.
Any maintenance and repair work
requiring an opening of the motor housing
11
may only be carried out by an authorised
customer service workshop.
The planer platen is made of a high-quality
magnesium alu minium alloy. Any corrosion
which may occur can be removed by buffi ng
using a fi ne elastic fi bre mat „V lies quality“
(grit S800). To prevent corrosion of the chromated planer head any cleansant used must
have a pH value of between 4.5 and 8.
Keep the ventilation slots in the motor housing
clean and free of obstructions at all times to
ensure an adequate circulation of air.
The planer is fi tted with special motor brushes
with an automatic cut-out. When the brushes
become worn the power supply is shut off
automatically and the planer comes to a
standstill.
Accessories, tools
For safety reasons, only use origi-
nal Festool accessories and tools!
Three rustic planer heads are also available
as accessories. The planer head HK 82 RG
provides a coarse rustic texture and the HK
82 RF a fi ne rustic texture. The planer head
HK 82 RW provides an irregular undulated
surface. All rustic planer heads can only be
fi tted with the HSS spiral cutters provided for
this purpose. No interchange is possible.
The accessory and tool order number can be
found in your Festool catalogue or on the Internet under www.festool-usa.com.
