Planing
WARNING:
• Remove all foreign objects. Do not plane wood
with loose knots. Do not plane wood that is
severely knotted or warped.
• Your DW733 works best with at least one
flatsurface.
• For optimal results, plane both sides of your
workpiece to reach the desired thickness.
WARNING: Feed the workpiece in the direction of the
grain (Fig. G).

Snipe
Snipe is a depression made when the ends of the workpiece
contact the cutters. To avoid snipe:
• Make sure the extension tables are level with the
maintable.
• Keep the workpiece level throughout the
planingoperation.
• Feed the workpiece flat against the tables.
Warping (Fig. H1–H4)
If your workpiece is only slightly warped, plane both sides to
produce the desired thickness.
Bowed workpieces (Fig. H1, H2)
The feed rollers and cutterhead will temporarily flatten the
workpiece (Fig. H1). The bowed shape, however, will return
after planing (Fig. H2).
To remove the bow, use a jointer.

Cupped workpieces (Fig. H3, H4)
1. Rip the cupped workpiece in the middle (Fig. H3).
2. Plane the pieces separately to eliminate waste.
3. Alternatively, plane the top flat
37
first, then turn the
workpiece over and plane the bottom flat
38
(Fig. H4).

Dust Extraction (Fig. A, I)
WARNING: Whenever possible, connect a dust
extraction device designed in accordance with the
relevant regulations regarding dust emission. The
air velocity of externally connected systems shall
be 20 m/s +/- 2 m/s velocity to be measured in the
connection tube at the point of connection, with the
tool connected but not running.
1. Mount the dust extraction adaptor
