Why choose the M4P FS 305 S with spiral cutterblock
The M4P FS 305 S is designed for advanced hobbyists, artisan woodworkers, and small workshops seeking a compact, 230V-powered planer-thicknesser with a 305 mm working width. Compared to smaller 250 mm models, it offers greater working capacity while maintaining manageable dimensions and an approximate weight of 41 kg.
A key technical feature is the spiral cutterblock with 28 carbide inserts. This configuration reduces noise levels, improves surface finish quality, and allows for the replacement of individual inserts in the event of wear or localized damage. Carbide inserts are particularly useful when working with various types of wood, as they ensure smoother planing and a cleaner finish.

Krollit technical tip
To achieve a smooth finish, it is recommended to connect the machine to a compatible dust extractor with a Ø 100 mm nozzle and to work using progressive passes. Although the maximum stated material removal is 2 mm, it is preferable to reduce the depth of cut when working with hard, knotty, or irregular wood to improve surface quality and reduce strain on the motor.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does the M4P FS 305 S have a spiral cutterhead?
Yes, the M4P FS 305 S is equipped with a spiral cutterhead featuring 28 carbide inserts. This configuration reduces noise levels and helps achieve cleaner surfaces compared to traditional straight-blade systems.
What is the working width of the M4P FS 305 S?
The planing width is 305 mm in both surface planing and thicknessing modes.
Does the M4P FS 305 S operate on 230 V?
Yes, the machine operates on a 230 V power supply. It is therefore suitable for environments where a three-phase line is not available, provided the electrical system is correctly sized.
What is the maximum thickness planing height?
The thickness planing height ranges from 5 to 150 mm.
What motor does the FS 305 S use?
The M4P FS 305 S is equipped with a motor rated at 1.8 kW for S1 (100%) duty and 2.5 kW for S6 (40%) duty.
Is the stand included with the M4P FS 305 S?
No; the standard equipment specified by the supplier includes a spiral cutterblock with 28 carbide inserts, 5 spare inserts, a dust extraction hood, and a push stick. The stand is not listed as part of the standard equipment for this model.
Is a dust extractor required to use this planer?
Yes, it is recommended to connect a dust extractor to the Ø 100 mm port. Dust extraction helps remove chips and dust, improving cleanliness, visibility, and safety during operation.
