Surface Planing

OPERATIONS

The purpose of surface planing on the jointer is to make one flat face on a piece of stock (see Figures 30–31) to prepare it for surface planing on a thickness planer.

NOTICE

If you are not experienced with a jointer, set the depth of cut to 0", and practice feeding the workpiece across the tables as described below. This procedure will better prepare you for the actual operation.

To surface plane on the jointer, do these steps:

1.Read and understand Safety, beginning on Page 6.

2.Make sure your stock has been inspected for dangerous conditions as described in the Stock Inspection & Requirements instructions, on Page 20.

3.Set the cutting depth for your operation. (We suggest 1⁄32" for surface planing, using a more shallow depth for hard wood species or for wide stock.)

4.Make sure your fence is set to 90˚.

5.If your workpiece is cupped (warped), place it so the concave side is face down on the surface of the infeed table.

6.Start the jointer.

7.With a push block in each hand, press the workpiece against the table and fence with firm pressure, and feed the workpiece over the cutterhead (Figure 30).

Note: When your leading hand (with push block) gets within 4" of the cutterhead, lift it up and over the cutterhead, and place the push block on the por- tion of the workpiece that is on the outfeed table. Now, focus your pressure on the outfeed end of the workpiece while feeding, and repeat the same action with your trailing hand when it gets within 4" of the cutterhead. To keep your hands safe, DO NOT let them get closer than 4" from the cutterhead when it is moving!

8.Repeat Step 7 until the entire surface is flat.

Failure to use push blocks when sur- face planing may result in cutterhead contact, which will cause serious per- sonal injury. Always use push blocks to protect your hands when surface planing on the jointer.
