  1. Surfacer

  2. 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.

  3. 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…….

  14. Surface Plane • Surface Plane is defined as cutting a thin layer of material off the top face of the material to create uniform thickness

  15. Operation Procedure 1 • 1. Set the material on the depth scale to have the top of the material read “0” (zero)

  16. 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.

  17. 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.

  18. 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

  19. Operation Procedure 5 • 5. Repeat step 4 until you have reached your specified thickness.

  20. Adjusting for depth of cut.
