The Guide:1. The Guide (64) can be used to adjust the width of cut, support the Planer, and
keep the Planer from drifting away from the cut line (i.e., the edge of a door).
The Guide may be attached either to the right side of the Planer or on its left
side. To do so, position the Planer on the wood stock that is to be cut. Loosen
the Screw (47) located at the front of the Planer. Insert the Guide into the mount-
ing hole located on either side toward the front of the Planer. Slide the Guide in
until it contacts the edge of the wood stock. Then, lock the Guide in place by
retightening the Screw. (See Figure F.)

Then, depress the Safety Lock Button (17) and squeeze the Trigger (16) to start
the Planer. IMPORTANT: Do not allow the Blades (57) of the Planer to contact
the wood stock until the Blades are spinning at full speed.
(See Figure G, next page.)
