Make sure to cut your workpiece to the correct width for
the knife being used (Figure 39). To improve knife life
and workpiece results when cutting in very hard woods,
use a table saw to rabbet out some of the profile before
running the workpiece into the planer/moulder.

Never cut into moulding that is wider than the knife.
Otherwise, the knife will overheat, burn the wood, and
dull rapidly.

Make sure to use the guide rails (Figure 40), so the
moulding profile can be cut with maximum safety and
without wander, twisting, or profile misalignment.

Do not attempt to cut moulding without using the guide
rails. Otherwise the workpiece could shift and be ejected
from the machine and cause severe injury, or the mould-
ing pattern could be inconsistent from one strip of mold-
ing to another.
