Spatially resolved profiles of the Hα, and [NII] lines have been obtained with the Manchester echelle spectrometer combined with the 2.1 m San Pedro Mártir telescope over the bipolar lobes, the symmetric low ionization knots and the bright core of the planetary nebula KjPn 8. The lobes of this galactic bipolar nebula have the largest angular extent, 14′ × 4′, yet discovered.
