Test Run
To get familiar with this planer, and to ensure everything is well-calibrated, it’s advised to run the
following tests before production work.
Step 1: Verify all electrical components are functional.
1. Remove all tools and debris from the planer bed and the extension wings.
2. Press the OFF button.
3. Connect the machine to the power source.
4. Press the ON button. The machine should be running with no excessive noise and vibration.
5. Press the OFF button to stop the machine.
6. Press the ON button to restart the machine. Disconnect the machine from the power source while
the machine is running, then reconnect the machine to power. The machine should NOT restart.
Step 2: Verify planer is functional and calibrated.
1. Connect planer to a dust collection system.
2. Lower carriage all the way down. It should stop at 5/32" above the planer bed, or the height set
by the depth stop.
3. Raise carriage all the way up. It should stop approximately 6” above the planer bed.
4. Turn on the DRO and check its readings. It should reflect the movements of the carriage.
5. Prepare a piece of good quality, straight grain wood board with a flat bottom for a test run. It is
advised to choose a board that is close to 12-1/2” wide and at least 2 feet long.
6. Start the dust collection system.
7. Set depth of cut to approximately 1/32” for a test pass.
8. Lower carriage lock lever. The carriage should not move when attempting to adjust its height.
9. Turn on the planer and begin feeding the workpiece. Feed rollers should pull the workpiece
through the planer. Verify the entire top surface is cut.
10. Turn off the planer and inspect the workpiece for any defective finish.
11. Using a caliper, check workpiece thickness is uniform side-to-side. This ensures the cutterhead is
parallel with the planer table.
12. Check the cutterhead height scale. It should point at the same value as shown on the caliper.
13. Check for excessive snipes. A minimum amount of snipe may occur at the ends of the board, and
it is expected.
Congratulations! You have completed the test run and your planer is ready for production work. If you
discover any issues from the tests, please refer to the troubleshooting section and maintenance section
to diagnose issues and make adjustments.
