the thicknesser.
To remove the workpiece from the
machine, position yourself offset to
one side of the outfeed opening.

Workpiece dimensions
• Length: min. 200 mm.
• Width: max. 309 mm.
• Thickness: min 5 mm;
max. 200 mm.
Tips and Tricks
• Plane stock with the grain, if possi-
ble.
• Use roller supports on both sides of
the planer/thicknesser when work-
ing long stock.
• When thickness planing it is better
to make several passes with little
chip removal, than making only few
passes with a high depth of cut.
• Keep surfaces of planing beds clean
– in particular, remove resin residue
with a suitable cleaning and mainte-
nance spray (optional accessory).
• Apply an anti-seize compound (for
example WAXILIT) to all planing
bed surfaces afterwards. This
makes feeding easier and provides
for a smoother surface finish.
