If a specific pre-set thickness is required, set the
depth stop to the desired final workpiece thick-
ness.

4.
Set the board aside, then insert the safety key in the
switch A and turn on the planer B.
6.
Align the board laterally so that it will be fed through
the planer in the general direction of the grain, and
allow the workpiece enough clearance to feed
properly without rubbing or catching on either side
of the machine.
NEVER PUSH, PULL OR OTHERWISE TRY TO MOVE OR
RE-POSITION THE WORKPIECE ONCE IT IS IN THE CON-
TROL OF THE AUTOMATIC FEED ROLLERS.
8.
Release the board allowing the feed roller to auto-
matically feed the board through the planer.

Slide the workpiece up to the cutter head and us-
ing the depth of cut adjustment handle, raise or
lower the cutter head as needed to obtain the de-
sired depth of cut.
TO LIMIT THE POTENTIAL FOR INJURY IN THE EVENT
OF A KICKBACK, AVOID STANDING DIRECTLY IN LINE
WITH THE FRONT OR BACK OF THE PLANER WHENEVER
A BOARD IS ENGAGED IN THE CUTTER HEAD.
5.
Stand to one side of the machine and set the
board back on the infeed table with the face to be
planed facing up.
7.
Slowly slide the workpiece forward until the infeed
roller "grips" the board.
9.
Step to the rear of the machine and recover the planed
board on the outfeed table once it has cleared the
outfeed roller and has stopped advancing.
Note: Repeat these steps as needed for all boards that
need to be planed to the same thickness.
