For more precise adjustment, use a dial indicator. Place the gauge
on the outfeed table and adjust the dial to “0” on the indicator.
Outfeed Table
Place the dial indicator on the outfeed table with the flat indicator
point touching a knife edge.
Infeed Table
Outfeed Table
Cutter
Head
Adjust the table height. When the pointer reaches “0”, the knife edge
and outfeed table are even.
Caution
After the outfeed table has been set at the correct height, it should
not be changed except for special operations or after replacing
knives.
Step 4:
Align and Adjust Infeed Table
The depth of cut is determined by the distance between the infeed
table surface and the knife edge at its highest point on the cutting
circle.
For an accurate depth of cut, make sure the gauge on the side of
the table reads “0” when the table surface is exactly level with the
knives at their highest point of revolution.
Confirm table height.
To check table height:
1. Place a straight edge on the infeed table and over a knife tip on
the cutterhead. Be careful not to damage the carbide inserts.
Verify blade height
with straight edge.
2. Carefully turn the cutterhead by hand.
• If a knife tip makes contact with the straight edge, but the
straight edge does not move, the table is set properly.
• If a knife tip does not touch the straight edge, the table is
too high.
• If the straight edge lifts slightly when the knife makes
contact, the table is set too low.
To adjust the infeed table height:
1. Loosen the table lock lever.
2. Move the adjustment handle up or down.
3. Tighten the table lock lever.
When the table surface is even with the knife edges, make sure the
red gauge indicator is at “0”. If it is not:
1. Loosen the indicator with a screwdriver.
2. Adjust the indicator to “0”.
3. Retighten the screw.
Step 5:
Set Depth of Cut
1. Loosen the infeed table lock handle.
2. Move table adjustment arm to raise or lower the infeed table.
The gauge indicates the distance that the table has been raised
or lowered from the “0” point.
3. Tighten the table lock handle.
