Set Cap-iron about one - sixteenth of an inch from edge of Plane-iron. Adjust plane iron for coarse or fine shavings by using the thumb on the brass adjusting-nut (thumb-screw) while resting the "heel" on the bench. Move lateral adjustment so as to make edge of Plane-iron appear even.

Fig. 6.

Grasp the plane by the handle and press and guide firmly with the other hand on the "knob," taking special care not to tip the plane at the ends of the wood.

When planing with right hand place left foot forward in direction of working force. Keep legs and back straight, but not in a constrained position.

When end planing on bench hook is to be done, set cap back about one-eighth of an inch, and hold side of plane firmly on the bench close to bench hook.

If plane clogs with shavings remove iron to clean it. Never take out shavings with knife or any other tool. In grinding or whetting plane-iron keep cutting-edge and bevel straight, rounding the corners a little.
