Example, when “1” is next to the pointer on the front of the planer, the depth of cut is approximately 1mm. 3. If it is necessary to accurately determine the depth of cut, plane a scrap piece of wood, measure the difference in thickness and adjust the setting if necessary. Switching on and off CAUTION.
