Operational Tips NOTICE ALWAYS lock down cutterhead lock knobs before planing or moulding The cutterhead can move and create snipe at the ends of the boards Carefully inspect any workpiece that you plan to run through the Planer Moulder Each workpiece must have at least one flat surface to slide along the Planer Moulder table To create a flat surface pass the workpiece over a jointer first see Figure 26 Defects such as twisting loose knots or severe cracks may make the stock unusable Only use clean lumber see Figure 27 Scrape off all glue from joined boards before processing Remove all dirt nails staples imbedded gravel etc from any workpiece you plan on using Metal or gravel in a workpiece will instantly damage the knives Avoid processing a workpiece with a high moisture content Wood with more than 20 moisture or wood that has been exposed to rain or snow will mill poorly and cause unnecessary wear on the knives and motor Excess moisture may also cause rust or corrosion problems Use ONLY natural wood fiber Never process wood composites such as particle board plywood or MDF Never process laminates Formica or other synthetic materials Feed wood in the same direction as the grain Never feed end cut or end grained lumber into the Planer Moulder 19 Figure 27 Only mill a clean workpiece Portion Removed With Jointer Figure 26 Face joint the concave side of cupped
