ASSEMBLY & ADJUSTMENTS
FEED SPEED CONTROL
Your Planer is equipped with a spiral, serrated infeed roller and a solid steel
outfeed roller. When the feed rollers are engaged, they turn to feed stock.
The feed rollers slow down automatically when the Planer is under heavy
load. The feed rollers are driven by chains (D) Fig. 27 and the sprockets
(E), which take power directly from the cutterhead through the oil gear box
(F).
There are two feed speeds in the gear box, they are controlled by using the
speed shift lever (G) Fig.27. When the speed shift lever is completely
pushed in (A) Fig.28, the feed speed rate is 20 ft./min., when it is
completely pulled out (C) the feed speed rate is 16 ft./min. and the center
position (B) is a neutral setting.
RETURN ROLLERS
The two return rollers (A) Fig. 29 on the top of the Planer serve as a
convenient stock rest. When planed lumber is returned to the infeed side,
it saves time and motion.
4” DUST COLLECTOR HOOD
This standard accessory dust collector hood (B) Fig.29 is assembled to the
rear of the Planer using hex. screws and washers. Connecting a dust
collector to your Planer provides an efficient means of maintaining a clean
and safe work area.
