PLANING
WARNING:
Use two hands on the
planer when practical.
WARNING:
Where possible,
clamp the workpiece to a stable
platform such as a work bench.
1. Adjust depth of cut.
2. Rest the front sole plate (1) on the
workpiece (2) (Fig. 3).
NOTE:
Make sure the cutting blades do
NOT contact the workpiece.
3. Turn the tool ON and wait for the
cutting blades to reach full speed.
4. While holding the tool firmly, slowly
move the tool forward while applying
slight pressure to the front of the tool.
5. As you near the end of the forward
planing stroke, use your right hand to
apply slight downward pressure to the
rear of the tool. This action will ensure
a smooth consistent cutting depth as
the cutting blades leave the
workpiece.
NOTE:
Do not allow the front of the planer
to tilt downward as the cutting blades leave
the workpiece. A deeper cut will result.
6. Push the planer forward until the
cutting blades move beyond the
workpiece.
NOTES:
a) For better control of the planer, incline
the workpiece slightly away from you
so you plane “downhill”.
