Is there anything I should know before I get going too far? I've
never used a planer before, and while operation seems simple enough, I
don't want to miss something important.

Hey, did you guys know the exhaust really blows? I put a hose on the
output and directed it in to a 5 gallon bucket. Then, I ran a board
through... Those planer shavings are just like confetti! I had no idea
directing the output to a can like that was such a bad idea!

No wonder the home made chip collectors all had covered cans.
