2 forum posts | Hi all ! I'm completely new ta all this (the forum that is not woodworking) I need your help I've just gotten an old elektra beckum hc260e I know very little about. It's the same as Kevin's with the side mounted motor. It seems in good shape considering its age it was sitting in an old shed with a few dogs (the smell not good ) it needs a good clean and some tlc. Any advice you can give me eg blade set up, cleaning, belts, etc would be greatly accepted as I said I know very little about any of this. Thanks for having a look |

1594 forum posts 73 photos | Derek, it's a planer thicknesser. There easy enough to set up and maintain. Click here to go to a page of instruction manuals for the HC260, have a look and download the one you need as it will give you help in setting up and maintaing your machine. As for cleaning, usually a degreaser, spray oil, wire wool and a lot of elbow grease. Al Edited By Big Al on 22/02/2013 13:04:05 |

2 forum posts | Cheers lads. The elbow grease has started will put up a few pic's later. It came on a botched home made stand that I have dismantled. In my head is a great bench/base with adjustable height but the great ideas in my head don't always work in the real world. I'll try to sort out a bit of an album as well showing some of my latest projects I managed to complete (I'm easily distracted and start something new without finishing the first thing. As the wife's only too happy to point out. ) |

3 forum posts | Hi I have tried to click on the link to see the manuals for the HC 260 but I can only get as far as a small window requiring a password. Could you tell me if this is part of this forum or something different Thanks |

3 forum posts | Hi Steven Thanks for your reply. I must admit I cannot see any point in a link being provided if it cannot be accessed by everyone, or at least an explanation as to who can / cannot click on it. Thanks anyway. |

Moderator 143 forum posts 11 photos 367 articles | Hi again David, Fair point, it may be that at the time of posting, 4 months ago, that particular site required no login. Forum posts are made with good intentions but sometimes links to other websites become out of date quite quickly. Hang in there I'm sure help will be offered soon enough. Steven |

3 forum posts | Derek It looks very close. Mine is actually the Electra Beckum brand from around 1992/3 but this looks the closest I have seen. Thanks very much. (Next task will be to try to get the dust collector connector and chip shoot to attach to my extractor) |

1 forum posts | Hi All... new to the forum and have been very happy to find a link to a usable manual for my newly acquired (second hand) HC 260 (E) Realising the manual linked is for the HC 260 C it is however better than nothing at all. Am curious to find out if there are any links to spares and accessories for the Elektra as Metabo UK have responded with no records on their system. Having acquired the HC 260 E from a deceased estate it is apparent that there are a few attachments missing such as the chip chute and the surface plane guard. Would be glad to receive any information around the operation, spares, maintenance and attachments for this unit as I see it as a very useful weapon in my workshop arsenal. Cheers Wayne |

11 forum posts | Hello Wayne The Metabo 260 planer is almost identical to your old HC260 from Elektra Beckum. I have found Metabo UK to be extremely helpful and so ask them if they stock equivalent spares. I recently received a spare for my old Elektra Beckum chip extractor from them. From the photographs of the HC260 on the Metabo UK web site I would say that both the parts that you seek will be almost identical to the ones on the Metabo machine. Peter |
