Wood warped lengthwise - Feed rollers will
flatten a lengthwise warped board as if it were flat,
but the board will spring back to its original shape
once out of the planer. A lengthwise warped board
must be jointed flat on one side on a jointer before
being thickness planed.

Twisted wood - Twisted lumber or lumber twisted
lengthwise is difficult to thickness plane. The wood
may be so twisted that it cannot be thickness
planed. One possible solution may be to saw the
board into smaller sections and see if the sections
can be thickness planed.

11.2 Wood Grain
For an improved surface finish with minimal
tearout, always plane the work piece with the grain.
tearout, always plane the work piece with the grain.
The work piece should be fed into the
planer/molder so that blades are traveling with the
grain as they finish the cut. The grain should be
angled up toward the rear of the work piece as it is
fed into the planer/molder.

12.1 Installing molding cutters
Cutterhead knives are sharp.
Use extreme caution when working in close

7. With a marking pen, label each knife slot on
the cutterhead one, two, and three for easy
identification.
