Rabbeting
Rabbeting is creating a step on the edge of a
workpiece. Rabbeting is typically used in door and
window jambs. When rabbeting, the Rabbet Depth
Gauge will contact the unplaned portion of the
workpiece and help prevent planing too deeply.
1. Carefully set the Rabbet Depth Gauge (33) to
the desired rabbet depth. Use a straightedge
(sold separately) to adjust the Rabbet Depth
Gauge to the desired distance from the
Rear Base Plate, see
Figure I
. Tighten the
Knob (31) securely after adjustment.

2. Set the Fence to determine the
width of the rabbet cut.
3. Follow the General Operating Instructions on
page 14, with the Rabbet Depth Gauge
positioned over the unplaned portion of the
board. Plane the board using multiple passes,
if needed. The Rabbet Gauge presses against
the unplaned portion of the board and helps
the planer cut only to the specified depth.
chamfering Edges
This planer has grooves in the Adjustable Base Plate for
cutting a 45° angle along a corner, called a chamfer.
Note:
This technique takes requires experience to
accomplish properly. Practice on a piece of scrap
wood before attempting to chamfer a workpiece.
1. Place the center groove on the corner edge to be
cut. Hold the Planer at a 45° angle and seat the
corner of the workpiece securely into the groove.
2. Follow the General Operating Instructions
on page 14. Keep the corner securely
seated in the groove from the beginning
all the way through the cut.
