IMPORTANT: When removing or rotating inserts, clean saw dust from the screw,
the insert, and the cutterhead platform. Dust accumulation between these elements can prevent
the insert from seating properly, and may affect the quality of the cut.
2. Before installing each screw, lightly coat the screw threads with machine oil and wipe off any
excess.
3. Securely tighten each screw which holds the knife inserts before operating the planer. Knife
inserts should be torqued to approximately 50 to 55 inch pounds.
Jointer Table Lock Handle Adjustment
For best performance, the jointer table lock handles (A2) should be approximately in the fully
down position when in the locked position. If adjustment is required:
1. Disconnect machine from power source.
2. Unlock the lock handle (A2) and raise the table to the upright position.
3. Loosen locking nut (C2) with an 18mm wrench.
4. Adjust the table locking shaft (C1) in increments of 1/4 turns or less. Turn clockwise to
tighten the lock handle performance and counterclockwise to loosen.
5. Tighten the locking nut (C2).
6. Test the locking function and repeat if necessary.
Belt Replacement
To replace the cutterhead drive belt and/or the planer feed-roller belt, the jointer fence assembly
and two back panels must first be removed as described below. A 4mm hex wrench and two
13mm wrenches are required.
WARNING:
Make sure all knife insert screws are tightened securely.
Loose inserts can be propelled at high speed from a rotating cutterhead, causing
injury.
WARNING:
Make sure the electrical disconnect is OFF before working on
the machine. Blades are extremely sharp! Use caution when cleaning or changing.
Failure to comply may cause serious injury!
