OPERATE THE PLANER MACHINE
• Always use protective safety wear and observe safety
rules.
• Never stand directly in the pathway of the workpiece,
including infeed and outfeed, to avoid injury. The
operator should stand on the side of the elevation crank
handle.
• Feed the workpiece “WITH The Grain” as much as
possible. That is, at the contact point, the grain points to
the same direction as that of rotating cutterhead. For
this planer machine, the grain direction on the top of
workpiece should point toward the front of the machine.
• Place the workpiece on the infeed table. The surface to
be planed should be faced up.
• With the planer properly set up, turn the machine on.
• Hold the workpiece firmly and advance toward the
infeed roller slowly.
• Stop pushing or pulling the workpiece once it is
engaged by the infeed roller.
• The infeed roller will move the workpiece automatically
through the planer.
• For long workpiece, gently support the weight of the
workpiece while it is moved into and out of the planer to
stabilize the workpiece and decrease snipe.
• Move to the back of machine to receive the workpiece.
Do not pull.
• Use the return roller on top of planer to help transport
big workpiece back to infeed side.
• Use the entire width of the cutterhead to avoid uneven
wear of knives.
• For precision woodworking, measure thickness with
calipers after each planing.
