Material Removal Gauge
O
FIG.7
(Fig. 7)
Your planer is equipped with a material
removal gauge (O). It is used to indicate
the amount of wood that will be removed in
one pass with the carriage set at its current
height.
TO USE THE MATERIAL REMOVAL GAUGE
1. Slide approximately 3" (75mm) of your ma terial under the middle
of the carriage.
2. Be sure the wood is lying flat against the base of the planer.
If the material is inserted at an angle, the reading may be
inaccurate.
3. Crank the carriage down on the ma terial until the material removal
bar engages the wood. You will see the red arrow begin to move
up the scale indicating the amount of material to be removed with
the carriage at that height.
4. Adjust the carriage height until the desired depth of cut appears
on the gauge.
5. Pull the material out from under the carriage.
6. Turn the unit on and feed your material into the cutter head.
NOTE: Do not exceed the recommended depth of cut for various
widths of material recommended on the material removal gauge.
WARNING: DO NOT switch the unit on with the material
positioned under the carriage. Serious injury could result.
