• Attach the dust chute to the machine using two thumb
screws. The dust chute can be mounted to direct chips
to either side of thickness planer.

with a dust extraction system for a cleaner and safer
working environment. Using a dust extraction system will
also help prevent clogging of the dust chute. An adapter
