Door Thickness
The Easers allow both 1-3/8” and 1-3/4” doors to pass through the 555
machining a 45-degree bevel on both edges of the door. Carefully adjust the
Easers so that the 1-3/8” door barely opens them. If the 1-3/8” door opens
the Easers, too much a 1-3/4” door will hit the leading Easer Guide and mar
the door or jamb the 555. Always make a test cut before beginning
production.
Adjustment should allow both the top and bottom Easer Guides to ride
on their respective edges of the door. The Bottom Easer rarely, if ever, needs
adjustment.
1.
UNPLUG THE ROUTERS
2. Roll 1-3/8” door into the 555 until the door is between the
two Easer Guides.
3. Easers should open approximately 1/4” when the 1-3/8”
door is between the two Easers.
4. Turn the Jackscrew out to decrease the space between the
Easers.
NOTE
: If the Easers are properly adjusted for a 1-3/8” door, the 555
will also accommodate 1-3/4” doors.
Adjusting for 2-1/4 Doors
1. Turn the Jackscrew on the top Easer clockwise until Easer
Guides open enough for the door thickness.
2. Loosen the chuck on the top Easer, (bottom Easer should
not need adjustment).
3. Slide router bit out far enough to allow the cutting surface
to reach the edge of the door.
4. Re-tighten the router chuck.
