Bedboard Due to the high relief nature of the moulding cut- ters, it is essential that a bedboard be used to ensure that the knives do not come into contact with the planer bed. The bedboard also needs side rails or fences to guide the stock through the machine. Always use a bedboard so the knife does not come into contact with the cast iron bed of your Planer/Moulder. Before installing the moulding knives, construct and install a bedboard and fence system as described below. Figure 10. WARNING:
