Assembly and setup
- Check components: Verify all loose components are present as shown in the diagram.
- Initial alignment: Loosely align the components to understand their positioning.

Usage and adjustment
After assembly, always test the plane on a piece of scrap wood. If the cut is not satisfactory, loosen the screws slightly to adjust the blade position as required, then re-tighten.
