Introduction
The wood hand plane is a simple tool that is
designed to shape wood or clean up edges for
joinery.
Your hand plane features a hardwood body, a
steel blade (also called an iron) and a brass frog
with a knurled lock knob for locking the blade in
place. To achieve the best results when using
your specific type of hand plane, we recommend
reading books and magazines, and researching
the internet.

and lock knob.
2. Orient the bevel of the blade for the type of
planing you intend, insert the blade below the
frog, then set the blade below the sole of the
plane (see
Figure 1) for the initial cut.
3. Tighten the knurled lock knob to secure the
blade.
4. Verify that the blade is parallel with the sole—
so an even amount of the blade protrudes
from one side to the other.
— If the blade is not parallel to the sole,
loosen the lock knob and adjust the blade
as needed. One side will cut more than
the other if the blade is not parallel to the
sole.
To reduce the risk of injury when using this
tool:
•
Use care when handling the plane blade.
It is sharp and can cause lacerations.
•
Protect your eyes from flying chips by
wearing safety glasses.
•
Make sure the workpiece is properly
secured.
•
Use both hands to guide the plane over
the workpiece.
•
Keep the plane away from children.
