with

return

 

your

to

for

 

re

sharpening.

 

Have

 

your

 

knives

 

re

sharpened

 

when

 

you

 

fi

rst

 

no ce

 

some

 

dullness.

 

This

 

gives

 

op mal

 

performance

 

and

 

maximum

 

life

 

span

 

out

 

of

 

the

 

knives.

  

 

Molding

 

knives

 

should

 

be

ground

 

on

If

 

you

 

send

 

them

 

to

 

us

 

for

 

regrinding,

 

we

 

will

 

use

 

the

 

best

 

method

 

that

 

will

 

prolong

 

the

 

use

 

of

 

your

 

knives.

 

Planing

 

knives

 

may

 

be

 

ground

 

on

 

the

 

surface

 

or

 

on

 

the

 

bevel.

  

 

Both

 

molding

 

and

 

planing

 

knives

 

have

 

an

 

edge

 

angle

 

of

 

57

 

degrees

 

measured

 

o

ff 

the

 

back

 

of

 

the

 

knife.

  

The

 

use

 

of

 

dull

 

knives

 

will

 

put

 

a

 

strain

 

on

 

the

 

feed

 

mechanism

 

and

 

will

 

result

 

in

 

your

 

need

 

of

 

a

 

repair.

 

Any

 

problems

 

created

 

due

 

to

 

the

 

use

dull

 

knives

 

are

 

not

 

covered

 

under

 

the

 

warranty.

 

 

HOW

 

TO

 

MOLD

 

You

 

will

 

normally

 

use

 

the

 

guide

 

sub

plate.

 

When

 

using

 

the

 

op onal

 

jig

 

you

 

will

 

take

 

it

 

o

.

 

Always

 

use

 

your

 

sub

plate

 

on

 

any

 

job

 

where

 

the

 

knife

 

is

 

designed

 

to

 

cut

 

below

 

the

 

bo om

 

of

 

the

 

stock.

 

This

 

type

 

of

 

knife

 

will

 

hit

 

the

 

base

 

of

 

the

 

machine

 

if

 

a

 

sub

plate

 

is

 

not

 

used.

 

An

 

example

 

of

 

this

 

situa on

 

would

 

be

 

the

 

molding

 

of

 

half

 

or

 

quarter

 

rounds.
