OPERATION
PLANING
See Figure 32.
Planing is removing wood from the widest surface or face
of a board so as to make it flat and smooth.
Planing on a jointer will not necessarily make the face that
is planed square or parallel to any other surface. Planing on
a jointer only smooths and flattens. If you are planing and
jointing a board, the planing operation should be performed
first. This allows the jointed edge to be cut square to the face
which was previously planed flat and smooth.
JOINTING
See Figure 33.
Jointing is the removal of wood along the edge of a piece of
wood so as to make that edge straight, smooth and square
to the wood face which is against the fence. To ensure a
square cut, the workpiece face must be held flat against the
fence throughout the entire cut.
BEVELING/CHAMFERING
See Figure 34.
WARNING:
Always use push blocks when beveling or
chamfering. Failure to heed this warning could
result in serious personal injury.
 Adjust fence to desired angle. Lock fence in position using
fence tilt knob and fence sliding knob.
 Make a test pass to assure you have control of the
workpiece.
NOTE: Removing only the corner on the edge of a board is
known as chamfering while beveling is removing the corner
or the edge of the board down to the board's surface.
Normally a chamfer is made with one cut and only the corner
of the wood is cut off. Therefore, a cut deeper that 1/16 in.
may be made.
WARNING:
Do not contact the cutting knives or the guard with
the push blocks. Failure to heed this warning could
result in serious personal injury.
