Adjusting the table parallel to the cutter head.
Chain tension bracket Sprocket
The table is factory set parallel to the cutter head and should not need adjustment. If
the machine is producing a tapered cut, adjustment can be made as follows.
Disconnect the power from the machine. Never conduct any maintenance or
fitting of cutters with the power connected to the machine.
1.
Place a piece of parallel hardwood approxiimately 1-inch wide on the table at one
side under the cutter head.
2.
Raise the table so that the wood just touches the cutter head (not the blade).
3.
Remove the wood and check the other end of the cutter head. Both ends should
be the same.
4.
If both sides are the same, then no adjustment is required and, in all probability,
the blades have been installed correctly. If they are different, loosen the chain
tension bracket and move back.
5.
Remove the chain from one sprocket and turn the sprocket. Only a small
adjustment should be required, and it is suggested that the sprocket should be
turned two teeth at a time.
6.
Replace the chain.
7.
Re-tension the chain and lock the adjuster in place.
8.
Recheck the table to cutter head.
Note.
Mark the sprocket positions before removing the chain, or you could end up
confused as to what the original setting was.
