Basic Operation
To use the planer:
1. DISCONNECT PLANER FROM POWER!
2. Make sure you read and understand this
entire manual before beginning the planing
operation.
3. Put on safety glasses or a face shield.
4. If your workpiece does not have one flat face,
use a jointer to create one.
5. Place the flat surface of the workpiece fac-
ing down on the infeed extension wing and
table, and under the cutterhead, as shown in
Figure 16.
Figure 16. Basic planing operation setup.
6. Use the elevation crank to lower the cutterhead
until the bottom edge of the cutterhead
assembly just touches the workpiece, as
shown in
Figure 16.
Note: Anytime you switch directions with the
cutterhead elevation crank, there will be a
small amount of backlash—the amount the
crank moves before the cutterhead begins
to move. However, as long as you move the
handle in the same direction during opera-
tion, backlash will not be a factor.
7. Rotate the elevation crank clockwise slightly
less than
1
⁄
4
turn to raise the cutterhead above
the workpiece surface approximately
1
⁄
32
" for
the first pass, then remove the workpiece
from the machine.
8. If the workpiece is longer than can be sup-
ported by the extension wings and table,
arrange for assistance or use roller acces-
sories to support the workpiece.
9. Connect the planer to power and turn it ON.
10. Stand to one side of the planer path, then,
with the flat surface of the workpiece facing
down, feed the workpiece into the planer until
the infeed roller grabs it.
Note: The infeed and outfeed rollers will con-
trol the feed rate of the workpiece through the
planer. Do not push or pull on the workpiece
during operation.
— If the depth of cut is too much and the
planer bogs down, immediately turn it
OFF. Allow the cutterhead to come to a
complete stop, then raise it to remove the
workpiece. Reduce the depth of cut and
repeat
Step 10.
11. Once the workpiece is clear of the outfeed
roller, measure the workpiece thickness.
— If further planing is needed, rotate the ele-
vation crank counterclockwise slightly less
than
1
⁄
4
turn (
1
⁄
32
") to lower the cutterhead,
then repeat
Step 10 until you are satisfied
with the results.
