FAQs

What is the diameter of the attachment rods?

The attachment rods measure 8mm in diameter.

Does this fit all rebate planes?

No, this is specifically designed for 778 Rebate Planes.

What is the distance between the hole centres?

The hole centres measure 139.5mm apart.

Are the screws included in the package?

Yes, the kit includes the necessary screws for attaching the fence to the rods.

How do I ensure the fence remains square?

Use a small square against the plane sole and the fence face while tightening the rods to ensure a 90-degree angle.

Troubleshooting

Fence does not slide smoothly on the rods

Check the rods for burrs or debris; apply a light coat of machine oil to the rods to improve movement.

Fence feels loose or wobbly

Ensure that the mounting screws are tightened securely and the rods are fully seated within the plane body.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Direct fit for 778 rebate planes
  • Includes all necessary mounting hardware
  • Improves accuracy for edge-work
  • Cost-effective restoration solution

Cons

  • Limited to specific 778 model compatibility
  • Requires manual adjustment during installation
  • Does not include the plane itself

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To install the kit, first ensure your 778 plane is clear of debris. Insert the two 8mm attachment rods into the pre-drilled holes on the side of the plane body. Slide the fence onto the rods and secure it using the provided screws. Periodically check the tightness of these screws, as vibration during extended use may cause them to loosen. To maintain the components, lightly oil the attachment rods to prevent corrosion and ensure the fence slides without binding. Always verify the 139.5mm hole centre measurement against your specific plane model before attempting installation to prevent misaligning the fence guide.
