 Small Plow Plane is a joinery plane, perfect for cutting grooves, such as 

used for drawer and box bottoms, cabinet backs, and frame-and-panel construction. 
It is also capable of cutting small rabbets (grooves with one open side).

The ductile cast iron body is accurately machined with a 45° blade bed. The plane 
comes with a

 wide blade; other blade widths (

) are 

available separately. All blades are A2 tool steel and come with the face lapped. 
The fence has been sculpted to fi t the hand for comfort and proper registration of 
the plane to the workpiece.

No tools are required for any of the settings – blade installation, fence or depth 
stop. The unique depth stop clamp provides spring pressure to hold the stop when 
making adjustments (up to

). The large brass knobs (with locking collets) make 

setting the fence fast and easy.

Blade Installation

Caution:

 Be aware that the blade is sharp; careless handling can result 

in serious injury.

To install a blade, back off the lever 
cap knob and the blade guide knob. 
Slide the blade (bevel down) into 
position on the machined bed such 
that the slot at the top engages the 
disc on the blade adjustment knob. 
Turn the blade guide knob in until 
it just contacts the side of the blade. 
(This will ensure that the blade is 
positioned against the machined bed 
side and properly aligned with the 
skate.) Lightly clamp the blade with 
the lever cap knob.
