ADJUSTMENTS
DEPTH OF CUT
The distance of upward or downward movement is
controlled by handwheel.
One evolution: .059” (exactly 1,5 mm).
For more accuracy, always finaladjust with upward
movement.
NOTE: before moving table upward or down-
ward, loosen the lock nuts. After choosing the
proper position, tighten the lock nuts.
NOTE: Your planer was carefully adjusted at
the factory. However any inaccuracies due to
rough handling in transit can easily be cor-
rected by following these instructions. In order
to check the adjusments you will need a
straight edge, feeler gage and a homemade
gage block made of hardwood as shown.
TABLE ROLLERS
The machine is supplied with two rollers (A) which aid in
feeding the stock by reducing friction and turn as the stock
is fed through the planer. It is not possible to give exact
dimensions on the proper height setting of the table rollers
because each type of wood behaves differently.
As a general rule, however, when planing rough stock, the
table rollers should be set at high position. When planing
smooth stock the table rollers should be set at low
position.
In the case you need to minimise the snipe at the
beginning or the end of the board, rollers table should be
set at the low position.
NOTE : the raising range between .003” - .006” when
raising the roller higher above table as shown.
The table rollers on your planer are set for average
planing and are parallel to the table surface.
NOTE:
Be sure heigh of front and rear rollers are
same.
The table rollers must alway be set parallel to
the table.
1. Lay a straight edge across both rollers, loosen the
set screws.
