    NOTE: Do not get solvent on any painted portion of the machine. WAHUDA spiral cutterheads are machined with a film of oil that may be left over from the process. Removal of this oil residue, if apparent, should be done before you use your new machine.
  • Page 17 CLEANING SPIRAL CUTTERHEAD & TIPS (cont.) 7) Separate the tips from the screws and place in separate containers with a bit of mineral spirits or non-chlorinated brake cleaner. 8) Once all are removed, wipe down the bare cutterhead using rags with whichever solvent you chose mentioned above.

  • Page 18: Operations

    OPERATIONS NOTE: This operations section was designed to give instructions on the basic operations of this planer. However, it is in no way comprehensive of every planer operation. It is strongly recommended that you read books, trade magazines, or get formal training to maximize the potential of your planer while minimizing the risks.
  • Page 19 OPERATIONS (cont) RAISING AND LOWERING HEAD ASSEMBLY The cutterhead assembly consists of the cutterhead, insert tips, feed rollers, roller chains, gearbox, and cutterhead dust chute. Raising and lowering of the head assembly controls the depth of cut on the planer. To raise the cutterhead assembly, turn the adjusting crank handle clockwise.
  • Page 20 OPERATIONS (cont) DEPTH-OF-CUT INDICATOR The Depth-Of-Cut Indicator, located on the front of the machine, is a convenient way to quickly determine how much material is being planed off in one pass. With the machine powered OFF, and the cutterhead raised, insert your workpiece just under the indicator arrow.
  • Page 21 OPERATIONS (cont.) THICKNESS PLANING Thickness planing sizes the workpiece to a desired thickness, while at the same time creating a smooth and level surface. The thickness of each cut will depend on the type of wood, width of the workpiece, and condition of the lumber (i.e. dryness, grain composition, straightness, etc). Always make thin test cuts on a scrap piece of wood prior to performing final cuts.
  • Page 22 OPERATIONS (cont.) GENERAL TIPS AND GUIDELINES Thickness planing always works best when at least one side of the workpiece has a flat surface. If both sides of the workpiece are rough, feed one face of the board through the planer until the entire surface is flat. ALWAYS plane both sides of the workpiece to reach the desired thickness.

  • Page 23: Maintenance
