SETTING THE KNIFE HEIGHT
To obtain a knife projection of 1.5mm, place the knife setting gauge (E) on the
cutterhead with both guides resting firmly against the knife.
Loosen the assembly by turning the seven screws (A) clockwise with an open
end wrench.
When the knife is set to the correct height using the guides on the gauge,
retighten the assembly by turning the screws anticlockwise. Make sure all seven
lock screws are tightened properly.
WARNING
The knife edge is very susceptible to chipping. Use caution when handling
the gauge near the knives to avoid damaging them.
WARNING
The assembly must be tightened securely to prevent accidents during planing.
ADJUSTING THE TABLE EXTENSION ROLLER
The table extensions are mounted at the front and rear
ends of the main table.
Raise the cutterhead assembly so that you can get a clear
view and work comfortably adjusting the extensions.
Place a straight edge across the main table and table
extension to be adjusted.
If the main table and table extension roller are not aligned,
adjust the table extension by loosening the nut holding it in
place and turning the screw until the table extension just
touches the straight edge. Adjust the right and left sides of
the table extension this way.
The roller has been factory set to align with the table extension and requires no further adjustment.
MAKING THE CUTTERHEAD AND WORKTABLE PARALLEL
Underneath the main table, loosen the "C" circlip.
Disengage the bevel gear next to the circlip
Turn the bevel gear to adjust the height of that side of the cutterhead. One tooth of turn anticlockwise gives 0.12mm
raising thickness.
After adjustment, re-engage the bevel gear and replace the "C" circlip.
