Setup of Feed Rollers, Chipbreaker and
Pressure Bar
WARNING!
Disconnect machine from the power source
before performing any adjustments or
maintenance. Failure to comply may cause
serious injury!
The planer comes set up from the factory and
shouldn’t need any adjustment.
If you find adjustment is necessary, follow the
below listed sections for setting the in-feed roller,
chipbreaker, pressure bar and outfeed rollers.
Make a hardwood block to the specifications in
drawing Figure 13. You can use this wood
gauge along with 0.02” feeler gauge to set the
planer up as shown in Figure 12.
Figure 12 shows setup for general planing
applications. Depending on the stock and
cutterhead you may find that a different setup
may work better for your particular planing
operation.
