Surfacer
General Safety
Wear your safety glasses at all times
Take off all jewelry
Do not wear loose clothing
Make sure you are the only person in the safety zone when operating the surfacer.
General Safety continued
Never set material on the tables of the surfacer
Never force your material into the surfacer
Never look into the surfacer while it is in operation
If the material gets “jammed”in the surfacer, do not lower the wheel so it will finish the rest of the cut, simply shut the machine off…….

Surface Plane
Surface Plane is defined as cutting a thin layer of material off the top face of the material to create uniform thickness
Operation Procedure 1
1. Set the material on the depth scale to have the top of the material read “0” (zero)
Operation Procedure 2
2. Check for loose knots, foreign material, and other defects in the material.
Make sure the material is longer than 11” If not, a back-up board is required.
Place the flat or cupped side down on the in-feed table. The surfacer will cut the top of the material.
Operation Procedure 3
3. Turn on the machine
Stand to the left or right of the table, not in line with the material.
Send the material through. If more than one piece needs surfacing at the same setting, more than one CAN be sent through at the same time.
Operation Procedure 4
4. Remove the material from the out-feed table.
Return to the in-feed table.
Turn the depth wheel 1/2 turn clockwise. This is the MAXIMUM safe cut.
Feed material into the surfacer again
Operation Procedure 5
5. Repeat step 4 until you have reached your specified thickness.
Adjusting for depth of cut.
Before operation
