The depth of cut on a planer means the amount of
material that is removed from the top of the workpiece as
it passes underneath the cutterhead.
The depth of cut is set by adjusting the distance of the
table below the cutterhead. This distance is the thickness
of the workpiece minus the depth of cut. The planing
depth of cut is controlled by using the table height
handwheel (see
Figure.19
). Rotating the handwheel
clockwise raises the table.
Although the correct depth of cut varies according to
wood hardness and workpiece width, we recommend the
maximum depth of cut (per pass) be no more than
1
⁄
16
".
A series of light cuts will give better end results and put
less stress on the planer than trying to take off too much
material in a single pass.
The depth of cut can be referenced directly from the
table height scale on the right side of the machine, as
shown in
Figure.19
.
Note:.
The scale functions as a general guide only, and is
not intended for low-tolerance, precision results.
