FOR THE CORRECT PLANER BLADE SETTING
Your planing surface will end up rough and uneven, unless the blade is set properly and securely.
The blade must be mounted so that the cutting edge is absolutely level, that is, parallel to the
surface of the rear base. Refer to some examples below for proper and improper settings.
A Front base (Movable shoe)
B Rear base (Stationary shoe)
Correct setting
Nicks in surface
Gouging at start
Gouging at end
Although this side view cannot show it, the edges
of the blades run perfectly parallel to the rear base
surface.
Cause: One or both blades fails to
have edge
parallel to rear
base line.
Cause: One or both blade edges
fails to protrude
enough in
relation to rear base line.
Cause: One or both blade edges protrudes too far
in relation to rear base line.
DUST BAG (ACCESSORY)
