10 USING THE RABBETING DEPTH GUIDE
The rabbeting depth guide can be adjusted anywhere from 0 to 18mm above the
base of the planer. To attach the rabbeting depth guide:
1. Disconnect the planer from the power source.
2. Attach the rabbeting depth gauge to the right-hand side of the planer using the
lock knob (Fig. J - 1). Position the rabbeting depth gauge to the desired height
against the depth indication mark on the side housing. Tighten the lock knob.
3. If desired, use the parallel guide fence in conjuction with the rabbeting depth
guide to create a straight rabbeting cut.
4. Make multiple progressive cuts to achieve the total cutting depth. The required
rabbeting depth is achieved when the depth gauge is flush with the unplaned
section of the workpiece to the right-hand side of the tool (Fig. K).
NOTE: The rabbeting depth gauge allows only approximate depth settings. If it is
necessary to rabbet to a precise depth, plane a scrap piece of wood, measure the
rabbeted depth, and adjust the setting as necessary.
ADJUSTMENTS
WARNING : To avoid injury from accidental startups, always ensure that the tool is
switched OFF and unplugged from the power supply before making adjustments or
installing or removing blades.
REMOVING OR INSTALLING PLANER BLADES
WARNING: Planer blades are sharp and fragile. Wear protective gloves to protect
your hands. Handle the blades carefully to avoid personal injury or damage to the
blades.
WARNING: Do not attempt to sharpen or use resharpened blades of any kind. Use
only blades desig-nated for use with this model. Other blades may not clamp
securely in the blade holder, causing vibration and a decrease in performance.
Condition of blades will affect the precision of cuts. Observe the quality of the cut
that the planer produces to check the condition of the blades. Dull blades will tear
wood fibers and produce fuzzy surfaces. Raised grain will occur on the wood when
the cutting blades are dull or nicked.
NOTE: Blades on this planer are reversible and should always be reversed or
replaced as a matched set. Unbalanced blades can cause vibration and poor planing
action while shortening the life of the blade and the tool. Keeping a spare set of
blades on hand is recommended.
