A wood planing machine having both manual and automatic planing wood function includes a fundamental base provided with a first working platform and a second working platform. The fundamental base has two sides respectively provided with a guide unit, and a wood planing device is combined with the guide units. Thus, when the wood planing device is pushed to move toward the second working platform from the first working platform, the wood positioned on the first working platform will be planed to form a first flat surface. Then, the wood planing device is positioned at the second working platform, and the wood is turned over to have the wood planing device automatically planing the wood to form a second flat surface. Therefore, this invention is able to integrate efficacy of a manual wood planer and an automatic wood planer and enhance safety in use of the wood planning machine.

A set-up gauge for precision alignment of the cutting knives in a cutter head. The set-up gauge utilizes a support bar extending laterally across the wood shaper. Also included is a bracket slidably secured to the support bar and a rod extending outwardly from the bracket, the rod further comprising first end and second ends. Further included is a magnetic disc secured to the second end of the rod, the magnetic disc for contact with a surface of the cutting knives to identify a common inset distance for each of the cutting knives relative to the guide fence.

The present invention relates to a shooting board jig device. The device is comprised of a body having a base plate and a guide fence. The guide fence can be repositioned at a plurality of angles within a 360-degree range of movement atop the base plate and secured in said position via a pin. A hand planer known in the art can further be positioned along any side of the base plate. The generally L-shaped guide fence can then receive a board. The board is then placed towards the hand planer at the selected angle, such that the planar can be used to plane the edge or the end of the board. In this manner, the device allows a user to plane a board at a plurality of desired angles.

An emergency stop device of a wood planing machine is fixed with a wood planing machine. The emergency stop device includes an elongated touch board, two push buttons and two elastic members. The elongated touch board covers the push buttons and the elastic members, and the push buttons are electrically connected with a power supply unit, while the elastic members have their elastic ends pressing against the elongated touch board. Thus, in normal state, the elastic members will press against the elongated touch board and in emergency, the elongated touch board can be pressed to compress the elastic members and further press the push buttons to stop the power supply unit and make the wood planing machine stop operating.

A working height adjustment device of a processing machine includes a slide seat mounted to a fixing frame seat. The slide seat is provided with an adjustment seat having a through hole. The through hole is inserted with a micro adjustment rod having a threaded section. The micro adjustment rod is pivotally connected with a rotatable handle. A control rod having a link rod is provided between the fixing frame seat and the slide seat. The adjustment seat has an accommodation hole which is provided with an elastic member, a movable member and a push knob. The movable member has an engaging hole. One side of the engaging hole is formed with a toothed portion. The threaded section of the micro adjustment rod passes through the engaging hole. One end of the movable member is inserted into the elastic member, and another end is connected with the push knob.
