REPLACING PLANER KNIVES

1.

Remove top cover and dust chute.

2.

Loosen 2 screws Fig. 5 (A) and pivot motor

assembly for ward.

3.

Loosen the screws that hold knife locking bar in

place Fig. 6 (B).

4.

Remove all 3 knives, locking bars and screws from

the cutterhead.

5.

Clean the knife slots and bars,removing all traces

of sawdust and resin.

6.

Replace the locking bars and put all three new

knives in position, tightening the locking bar

screws just enough to prevent the knives from

falling out.

7.

To adjust the height of the knives, you will need

the knife setting gauge Fig. 7 (C). Place it on top of

the cutterhead.

8.

To adjust the height of the blades, turn the allen

key screws located at each end of the knife locking

bars Fig. 7 (E) anticlockwise to lower and clockwise

to raise them. The tip of the blades should just

brush the bottom of the setting gauge, this should

be even along the length of the blade.If there is no

movement of the blade when the adjustment

screws are moved, the screws holding the knife

locking bars in place may be too tight to allow the

blades to move.

9.

All three blades must be the same height, if not,

this will result in end snipe. (A dip at the end of

the board.)

10.

Tighten the locking bar screws evenly. Double

check that all of them on all three blades are tight.

11.

Replace top cover and dust chute and return

motor to correct position.

ADJUSTING HEIGHT OF CHIP DEFLECTOR

1.

Access the inside of planer (see previous

instructions).

2.

Loosen of f the three slotted screws Fig. 7 (D)

that hold the nylon chip breaker in place.

3.

Slide the chipbreaker down until it is about

0.5mm from the full arc of the blades in the

cutter block.CHECK THAT THE CHIP BREAKER

DOES NOT MAKE CONTACT WITH THE BLADES.

4.

Tighten the screws and replace the top cover and

dust chute.

FEED ROLLER SPEED CONTROL

Your planer has 2 feed roller speeds 16 fpm and

30 fpm. For general purpose planing on softer woods,

the faster speed is suitable, but for hard timbers, the

slower feed rate is more ef fective. A slower speed puts

less strain on the motor. A slower feed rate will also

give a better finish as there will be more cuts per inch.

When changing the setting of the feed roller speed Fig.

8 (A) it is essential to have the machine running. Pull

the speed control lever all the way out for the slow

speed, 16fpm. The middle position is neutral,and push-

ing the lever all the way will give a feed roller speed of

30fpm.
