Parking Foot (Fig. 11)

Your planer is equipped with a parking foot (S) that automatically lowers into place when the tool is lifted from the work surface. When planing, the parking foot raises as the tool is pushed forward. When the parking foot is lowered, the planer can set on the work surface without the blade touching.

Edge Chamfering (Fig. 12)

Your planer has three precision machined chamfering grooves (T) in the front shoe for planing along a corner of the wood (Fig. 12). The width of the grooves are 1.5 mm, 2 mm, and 2.5 mm. It’s a good idea to try a piece of scrap wood before doing finish work.
