Surface Planing

The purpose of surface planing on the jointer is to make one flat face on a piece of stock (see Figures 22 & 23) 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. This procedure will better pre- pare you for the actual operation.

To surface plane on the jointer:

1.Read and understand SECTION 1: SAFETY, beginning on Page 7.

2.Inspect your stock for the dangerous con- ditions described in Stock Inspection & Requirements instructions, beginning on Page 21.

3.Set the cutting depth for your operation.

Note: We suggest 1⁄32" for surface planing, using a more shallow depth for hard wood species or for wide stock.

4.Set the fence to 90˚ and place the workpiece on the jointer.

—If your workpiece is cupped (warped), place it so the cupped or concave side is face own (Figure 23) on the surface of the infeed table.

5.Start the jointer.

The step below requires you to use push blocks. Failure to use push blocks when surface planing may result in cutterhead contact, which will cause serious personal injury. Always use push blocks to protect your hands when surface planing on the jointer.

6.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 22).

Note: If 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 portion of the workpiece that is on the outfeed table. Now, focus your pres- sure 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!

7.Repeat Step 6 until the entire surface is flat. -23-
