OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
8. Rabbeting
Rabbeting is creating a step on the edge of a
workpiece.
When rabbeting, the rabbet-depth guide (G) will
contact the unplaned portion of the workpiece and
help you avoid planing more deeply than needed.
The width of the rabbet is controlled by the edge
guide (P)
The nal depth is achieved by repeating the planing
procedure until the rabbeting-depth guide contacts
the workpiece. Plane the board using multiple
passes,as needed.
Maximum rabbet distance is 5/16”.
9. Chamfering Edges
NOTE: This technique requires experience to
accomplish properly.
Practice on a piece of scrap wood before
attempting to chamfer a workpiece.
This planer has a V-groove in the front base of the
tool for cutting a 45° angle along a corner, called a
chamfer. Place the groove on the corner edge that
you wish chamfer. The planer should be held at
45° and the corner should be seated securely into
the groove.
Keep the corner securely seated in the groove
from the beginning all the way through the cut.
