Introduction to planers
The planer is designed
to give you years of
safe service. Read this
owner’s manual in its
entirety before
assembly or use.
The planer is generally
defined as a machine
that cuts planks of
wood smooth and
parallel. There are
many types of cutter
head, and this machine
uses an inserted cutter
type. The insert cutters
main advantage is to
reduce tear out of the
grain, but the finish is
not as smooth as the
parallel blade system. It
is well within the
capabilities of a belt
sander to give a
professional finish to
the jointed plank.
The parallel blade system, gives a finish without the lines that the insert cutter
system gives, but, is susceptible to tear out, especially on planks with knots. On
balance, it is better to use a machine with the insert cutters than the parallel blades,
as it greatly reduces the risks of having to scrap valuable wood, or spending
excessive time sanding tear out marks.
Additional Instructions for the use of planers
Like all machines, there is danger associated with the machine. Injury is frequently
caused by lack of knowledge or familiarity. Use this machine with respect. If normal
safety precautions are overlooked or ignored, serious personal injury may occur.
1. Supporting the work.
Only make cuts if the work piece is stable and never attempt to cut unstable planks,
or injury may occur.
2.Cutting depth .
Never exceed the maximum cutting depth as stated in the specification for your
machine. It is far better to take several small cuts, rather than large cuts.
3. Direction of cut .
Planning against the grain is dangerous and could produce chatter or excessive chip
out. Always plane with the grain.
