11. When finished with the pass, lift the planer away
from the workpiece. Wait for the blade to come
to a complete stop before setting down.
12. Continue using progressive cuts until near the
desired depth. Set the adjustment knob to a
very shallow depth for the final passes. This
will ensure a smooth finish.
13. Empty and clean the dust bag thoroughly when
it becomes about half-full and upon completion
of a job.
Types of Cuts
Rabbeting, Shiplapping
Rabbeting, or shiplapping, is a type of step cut
achieved by making repetitive passes. Use the
guide fence to ensure a straight cut.
1. Align the blade edge with the cutting line and
secure the guide fence against the side of the
workpiece.
2. Keep the edge of the fence against the workpiece
as the planer is moved through the workpiece.
3. Repeat until the desired depth is reached. Maxi-
mum rabbeting depth is 13 mm (1/2") .
Chamfering
Chamfering is a type of angle cut. Use the guide
fence to ensure the same angle is cut during each
repetitive pass.
1. Align the chamfer groove in the front shoe with
the edge of the workpiece at the desired angle.
2. Secure the guide fence against the side of the
workpiece, using the bevel thumb screws.
3. Keep the edge of the fence against the workpiece
as the planer is moved through the workpiece.
4. Repeat until the desired chamfer is reached.
