INSPECTING KNIVES
The height of the knives can be easily and quickly inspected with the knife setting gauge. This
inspection will ensure that the knives are protruding equally and are parallel with the cutterhead
body.
4. UNPLUG OR DISCONNECT PLANER FROM
POWER SOURCE AND LOCK OUT POWER.
5. Remove the top cover and dust port.
6. Place the knife gauge on the cutterhead, directly
over a knife, as shown in Figure 20.
7. Carefully inspect how the gauge touches the
cutterhead and the knife.
If both outside legs of the gauge sit firmly on the
cutterhead and the middle pad just touches the
knife, then that knife is protruding the correct
amount. (Repeat this inspection with the other
knives.)
If the gauge does not sit firmly on the cutterhead and touch the knife edge as described,
then reset that knife. (Repeat this inspection with the other knives before resetting.)
WARNING:
Knife inserts are dangerously sharp. Use extreme caution
when working with or around the knife inserts.
