Which of the following is NOT a method to help prevent accidents with planing machines?

Ensuring all guarding is removed

Ensuring all operators are trained

Carrying out regular maintenance on machines

What is essential for operators to do to help prevent accidents with planing machines?

Follow current safe working practices at all times

Follow outdated working practices

Only perform maintenance occasionally

What should planing and thicknessing machines always be connected to in order to control wood dust?

Fixed or mobile dust extraction

Under COSHH, what are employers (including contractors) required to do?

Carry out a suitable and sufficient risk assessment and take steps to ensure they prevent or adequately control exposure

Provide health insurance for workers

Offer training on how to use personal protective equipment

Install air conditioning systems in the workplace

According to COSHH, when is it necessary to control exposure to a hazardous substance?

When it is not reasonably practicable to prevent exposure

Only when the substance is in a liquid form

At all times, regardless of the level of risk

What are the two main types of thicknessing machines?

Thicknesser and combination planer and thicknesser

What is the function of the part labeled 'D' on the typical thicknesser?

It is the start and stop switch for the machine.

It is the machine bed where materials are placed.

It controls the feed speed of the material.

It is used to adjust the height of the table.

What effect does feeding the timber faster across the cutters have on the quality of finish?

It decreases the quality of finish

It improves the quality of finish

It has no effect on the quality of finish

It varies the color of the finish

Why is it beneficial to produce small pitch marks during the operation of the thicknesser?

It saves time in sanding and finishing later

It increases the speed of the machine

It requires less power consumption

It enhances the color of the timber

How does the speed at which you feed the material affect the pitch marks?

Slower feed results in smaller pitch marks

Faster feed results in smaller pitch marks

Slower feed results in larger pitch marks

The speed of feeding the material does not affect the pitch marks

What is the function of a thicknesser in architectural joinery?

To plane the timber to the required finished size

To join pieces of timber together

To cut timber into smaller pieces

To polish the surface of the timber

Why should materials be brought to the finished width before being passed through the thicknesser?

To enable greater stability while the timber passes through the machine

To reduce the time needed for thicknessing

To increase the efficiency of the machine

To prevent the machine from overheating

What can happen if more than one piece of timber is fed into a thicknesser with one fixed serrated feed roller at a time?

The timber can be forcefully thrown back at the operator

The machine will operate more efficiently

The timber will be planed more smoothly

The timber will be cut into smaller sections

What should a thicknesser have if it allows for the thicknessing of more than one piece of timber at a time?

A label stating whether or not this can be done

According to the diagram, how should workpieces be kept when using a thicknesser?

Well apart to ensure roller contact

Close together with no space in between

What is the purpose of fitting machines with anti-kickback fingers in architectural joinery?

To help prevent the ejection of material being forcefully thrown back at the operator

To increase the speed of material processing

To measure the thickness of the timber being processed

To hold the timber in place while it is being fed into the machine

What happens when the timber is forced back towards the operator?

The timber digs into these anti-kickback fingers, preventing further backward movement

The machine automatically shuts down

The anti-kickback fingers cut the timber into smaller pieces

The operator needs to manually remove the timber from the machine

What is the function of the out-feed roller in a thicknesser feed system?

To apply pressure to the timber as it exits the cutter block

To cut the timber to the desired thickness

To feed the timber into the cutter block

To collect chips produced during the cutting process

Where is the timber located in the section through a thicknesser feed system diagram?

Between the out-feed roller and the out-feed pressure bar

Between the feed roller and the cutter block

What is the correct order for feeding timber into the thicknesser?

Thicknessing uppermost, face side and face edge

Thicknessing uppermost, face edge and face side

What is the purpose of the pressure bar in a thicknesser?

To force the timber onto the machine bed and reduce the size of the chippings

To feed the timber through the machine

What helps to ensure a smooth passage of timber through the machine?

Anti-friction rollers on the machine bed

Which of the following is NOT a result of using the recommended maximum depth of cut on the thicknesser?

Increased risk of machine breakdown

Clearer finish to the components

Enabling the extraction to deal with the waste better

How is the depth of cut adjusted on a thicknesser machine?

Electronically or by a hand wheel

Automatically without any adjustment

What should be adjusted to cope with different species of timber and the required pitch mark finish?

The height of the outfeed table

When feeding timber into the thicknesser machine, how should the material be fed in relation to the grain?

The grain direction does not matter
