5.
Place straightedge on outfeed table so it
hangs over cutterhead, then lower outfeed
table until straightedge just touches
cutterhead body, as shown in Figure 34
(rotate cutterhead if necessary).
6.
Place straightedge in positions shown in
Figure 35. In each position, straightedge
should touch cutterhead body and sit flat on
outfeed table.
— If straightedge touches cutterhead and
sits flat across outfeed table in each
position, then outfeed table is already
parallel with cutterhead. Check infeed
table to make sure that it is parallel with
outfeed table.
— If straightedge does not touch cutterhead
and sit flat on outfeed table in any
positions, then outfeed table is not
parallel with cutterhead. Correct outfeed
table parallelism, then correct infeed table
parallelism.
Checking/Adjusting
Table Parallelism
If the tables are not parallel with the cutterhead
or each other, then poor cutting results and
kickback can occur.
