DeWalt DW675 - Rabetting; Adjustment of Rabbet Width; Edge Chamfering; Parking Foot

Rabetting (See Figure 9)
Install the Depth Stop and secure it using the Depth Stop Knob.
(Both of these parts are in the plastic bag packed with your planer.)
UNPLUG PLANER
To set depth of rabbet, loosen knob “A,” set depth stop “B” to
desired dimension (Measure from bottom of fixed shoe, to bottom
of depth stop). Tighten knob “A" (Figure 9). Before doing any
finishing work, make several practice cuts on scrap lumber until
you feel comfortable with the planer and rabbeting guide.
(Remember that several shallow cuts are better than one deep
cut.) Maximum rabbeting depth is 7/8“ (22mm). Maximum removal
in one pass is 9/64" (3.75mm) therefore several cuts will be
required to obtain maximum rabbeting depth of 7/8“ (22mm).
Adjustment of Rabbet Width
For proper rabbeting, it is necessary to use the fence. Refer to
Figure 11. Adjust to desired cutting width by loosening fence
clamping knob, move fence to preferred setting, then retighten
knob.
Edge Chamfering
Your planer has 3 precision machined grooves in the center of the
front of the shoe for planing along the edge of the wood. The widths
of the grooves are 1.5mm, 2mm and 2.5mm. Here, again, it’s a
good idea to try a piece/of scrap wood before doing finish work.
(Figure 12).
Parking Foot
Your planer is equipped with a parking foot that automatically
falls down into place when the tool is lifted from the work surface.
