Page 12: Operation
OPERATION This machine is intended for surface thickness planing of natural, solid woods to a desired thickness, while creating a smooth, level surface. Thickness of each cut will depend on type of wood (hardwood versus soft- wood), width of workpiece, straightness, dryness, and grain composition. Whenever working with a new type of wood, make thin test cuts on a scrap piece of wood first to determine potential problems with the work- piece. - Page 13 OPERATION POWER SWITCH The planer is turned on by flipping the switch into the up position and it is turned off by flipping the switch in the down position. This planer is also equipped with a special lockout toggle switch that prevents unauthorized use.
