ANTI-KICKBACK FINGERS
Anti-kickback fingers are provided to prevent kickback. These fingers operate by gravity and it is
necessary to inspect them occasionally to make sure they are free of gum and pitch so that they
move independently and operate correctly.
1. Disconnect and lockout power to the machine.
2. Raise the cutterhead height enough to allow for
both physical and visual inspection of the anti-
kickback fingers.
3. Visually inspect the fingers for any damaged,
broken, or bent fingers. Also check for any
accumulation of dirt, gum, or pitch and clean as
needed.
4. Move the finger up and down. The fingers
should raise and lower freely. They should drop
to the down position with their own weight.
IN-FEED ROLLER ADJUSTMENT
The in-feed roller should be set 0.02
” below the lowest point of knife. Make sure the knives are
set properly. See the
“Setting / Changing Knives” section prior to making any adjustments.
1. Disconnect and lockout power to the machine.
2. Place a hard wood gauge (A, Fig 14) under a
knife in cutterhead.
3. Place a 0.02
” feeler gauge (B, Fig 14) on top of
wood block and raise table until feeler gauge
contacts the knife in its lowest position.
4. Remove feeler gauge and place wood block
under the left side of in-feed roller. The top of
wood gauge should just contact the in-feed
roller.
WARNING:
Always disconnect and lockout power before perfoming any
service work. Anti-kickback fingers are sharp. Wear gloves to prevent injury.
