Page 19: 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 20 OPERATIONS (cont.) REPEAT CUT PRESET The REPEAT CUT preset, located on the right side of the planer, provides a simple way to preset the finished thickness of a work piece. The indicator can be set to various thicknesses. Move the lever to the desired finished thickness. Use this feature when thickness planing multiple work pieces to ensure a uniform thickness of all work pieces.
- Page 21 OPERTIONS (cont.) GETTING PREPARED It is always a good idea to use a piece of scrap wood for your first planing attempt. Also, before each use of the planer, make it a habit of checking for loose fasteners, fittings or hardware.
- Page 22 OPERTIONS (cont.) GENERAL TIPS AND GUIDELINES 1. Thickness planing always works best when at least one side of the work piece has a flat surface. If both sides of the work piece are rough, feed one face of the board through the planer until the entire surface is flat.
