3. Then gradually transfer pressure to the
rear shoe, and continue planing to the end
of the cut.
4. Feed the planer at a uniform and
reasonable rate that does not put
excessive strain on the motor or blades,
(do not pull the planer back over the
surface already cut.)
DEPTH OF CUT & FEED RATE
The cutting depth (planing depth) is
determined by the difference in height
between the adjustable front shoe and the
fixed rear shoe of the planer. The depth knob
adjusts the front shoe, which retracts and
exposes the blade and determines the
amount of material removed from the
workpiece. The cutting depth range is from 0
to 3/32" or 2.6 mm per pass. (Fig. 1)
The appropriate depth of cut and feed rate
depends on the workpiece material:
To avoid clogging and/or damage to the
motor, a more shallow (thin) cut and/or a
slower feed rate may be needed if the
material has any of these characteristics:
hardness; gumminess, sappiness, moisture,
paint, varnish and/or knots. Also, when
planing against the grain or across the grain
rather than with the grain, a shallower cut
and/or slower feed rate is required.
Whenever possible, test by planing a similar
piece of scrap material.
Use multiple, progressive cuts to achieve the
total desired depth.
Start with a shallow cut. If the plane moves
freely through the workpiece with no
excessive load on the motor, the depth
setting can be increased before the next cut.
(Do not change depth of cut while planing.)
When near the desired total depth, re-adjust
the planing depth to a shallow setting for the
final cut to obtain a good surface finish.
Adjusting the Depth of Cut: Rotate depth
adjustment knob clockwise until the indicator
is aligned with the desired cutting depth on
the depth scale (Fig. 1).
PARK REST STAND
The park rest stand automatically springs
down to help keep the blade from coming in
5. Use progressive cuts until you are near the
desired depth, and then re-adjust to a
shallow cut for the final pass to obtain a
good surface finish.
The motor may stall if

itself when the back of the plane crosses the
leading edge of the workpiece (Fig. 10). It will
also swing up when planing begins in the
middle of the work piece (in from the edge of
the work piece).

WARNING
source if it becomes
necessary to manually remove chips. The
blades are hidden from view and you may be
cut if contacted.
To minimize the possibility of clogging, make
sure:
1. Chip eject lever is all the way forward (left
eject) or back (right eject).
2. The depth of cut is reasonable for the
material.
3. The feed rate is reasonable for the
material.
(See FEED RATE & DEPTH OF CUT)
If clogging occurs, stop the planer and move
the chip eject lever back and forth. If this
does not break up the clog, unplug the planer
and carefully insert a screwdriver or similar
object into the dust port to break up the clog.
