SET UP

Tables, Level & Set Scales
• Firstly let’s set up the planing (top) parts of the
machine, the tables including the depth of cut
scale & the all important fence.
• Place a straight edge or clean spirit level at least
3ft long on the outfeed table, ensure that it is in the
middle of the table and is just off centre towards the
outfeed table, see fig 19.
Fig 19
• Raise the infeed table up to meet the underside
of the straight edge, see fig 20 this should come to
a positive stop bringing both tables level with each
other. If the infeed table stops higher or lower than
the outfeed table then adjustment can be made via
the bolt stop, see fig 21-22.

• Once the infeed and outfeed tables are level then
