WORKING HINTS FOR
YOUR PLANER
WARNING: Danger of
kickback! Apply the
machine to the work piece only
when switched on.
1. STANDARD SURFACE
PLANING
Set the desired cutting depth.
Position the front part of the base
plate flat onto the work surface.
Switch the machine on and push
your planer forward and it will
start cutting, always maintain all
of the base plate flat on the work
surface to prevent the cutting blade
jumping. Move the plane evenly
over the work surface. It is best to
use small depths of cut and repeat
the planing process.
2. EDGE CHAMFERING
Using the V-groove (10) in the base
plate (9) you can make a chamfer
on the work piece edge (See G).
Guide the planer along the edge
and maintain a constant angle and
force to produce a good finish. You
can control the angle of the chamfer
with your hands. Make a test
chamfer on a scrap piece of wood.
Ensure your work piece is clamped
and supported near the edge.
