Question about the Dewalt 733 thickness planer
 

I picked one up for $150.00. It's in great shape and came with 2 extra sets of blades. I ran a couple of test pieces through it and checked the thickness and the flatness against each other. All looks good.

I have a question: Do I lift and lower the head lock lever every time I adjust the thickness?

Any thing else I should know about this machine?

Thanks!

Mike

Thanks, Ed! The answer is yes. Two extra steps each time to adjust the depth of cut.
