8. Note: Do not stand behind the end of
the board during planing. Plane dry,
unwarped, clean boards only. Avoid
planing boards that have knots;
loose knots can jam the machine or
become a projectile. Do not plane
boards that have foreign objects
(nails, staples, etc.) in them.
9. Do not plane material:
thinner than 1/8” 
narrower than 3/4”,
wider than 12” 
shorter than 15”
10. The planer has a maximum depth cut
of 3/32” per pass. The Planer will
operate best when the depth of cut is
less than 1/16”. It is recommended
to make a series of shallow cuts
rather than a single deep cut.
Note: Always keep the boards being
planed level. Support long boards at
both ends.
11. Plane along the grain of the wood.
12. Plane alternating sides of the
board until the desired thickness is
achieved.
13. When planing multiple boards to
same thickness, place ends so they
are touching (butting) for best results.
14. An assistant can return the boards to
the operator using the Rollers (13) on
top of the Planer.
