Investigate and correct the source of any
problems before further operation.
DO NOT attempt to investigate or adjust the planer while it is running.
Wait until the planer is turned off, unplugged and all working parts have come to a
complete standstill.
Changing Mode of Operation
When changing the operating mode (planer to jointer and back) the machine must be turned off and
at a complete standstill. To change the mode of operation, see sections Jointer to Planer Setup
and Planer to Jointer Setup.
Jointer Operations
Correct operating position
The operator must be positioned offset to the infeed table (Figure 16).
Referring to Figure 16:
At the start of the cut, the left hand holds the workpiece firmly against the infeed table and fence
while the right hand pushes the workpiece
in a smooth, even motion toward the cutterhead. After the cut is under way, the new surface rests
firmly on the outfeed table. The left hand is transferred to the outfeed side (Figure 16) and presses
down on this part of the workpiece, at the same time maintaining flat contact with the fence. The
right hand presses the workpiece
forward and before the right hand reaches the cutterhead it should be moved to the work on the
outfeed table.
Surfacing
The purpose of planing on a jointer is to produce
one flat surface (Figure 17). The other side can
then be milled to precise, final dimensions on a
thickness planer resulting in a board that is
smooth and flat on both sides and each side
parallel to the other.
If the wood to be jointed is cupped or
bowed, place the concave side down, and
take light cuts until the surface is flat.
Never surface pieces shorter than 12 inches
or thinner than 3/8 inch without the use of a
special work holding fixture.
Never surface pieces thinner than 3 inches without the use of a push block.
Cuts of approximately 1/16" at a time are recommended, which provides for better control over
the material being surfaced. More passes can then be made to reach the desired depth.
