Guide means for manual planing tools

摘要

A manual planing or milling tool having a rotary driven cutter is displaceable longitudinally along a fixedly arranged guide rail. The tool is connected with a holder which carries a running part sliding on the guide rail. The holder may be guided pivotingly or nonpivotingly with respect to the guide rail. The guide rail may be fastened to a workpiece support bar rotatable by 180 DEG so that the processing tool may be used in two different positions. The workpiece support bar may have two different surfaces, one being smooth for the working of large workpieces, while the other having grooves to receive smaller workpieces.
