Instructions
It is important that the fence be held
firmly against the face of the workpiece
being planed in order to get accurate
results. This ensures that the fence will
govern the plane’s orientation, not the
sole. Press the fence firmly against the
workpiece with your forward hand and
push the plane with your other hand.
Angles less than 45°
For angles less than 45°, attach a
bevelled piece of wood to the fence using
#10 flat-head screws through the
countersunk holes
Note: What is important is the relationship of the blade to the fence, not the
blade to the sole. You can fine tune the angle by setting the lateral adjustment
of the blade.
Tip: When planing a workpiece with the fence set to a 45° angle, and the
desire is to plane right to the edge, a wooden sub-fence may be used. Without
it, a small flat will be left on the edge that does not get planed by the blade.
