anti-Kickback Fingers
the anti-kickback fingers are an important safety
feature of your planer. the fingers hang from a rod
suspended across the head casting and in front of
the infeed roller, as shown. this design allows the
workpiece to easily enter the planer but reduces
the risk of kickback by digging into the workpiece
if it moves backward.
Check the anti-kickback fingers regularly to ensure
they swing freely and easily. if the fingers do not
swing freely and easily, first clean them with a
wood resin solvent, then inspect them for dam-
age. if any of the fingers are damaged, the device
must be replaced before using the machine.
do not apply oil or other lubricants to the anti-kick-
back fingers that will attract dust and restrict free
movement of the fingers.
Proper operation of anti-kickback fingers
is critical for safe operation of this planer.
DO NOt operate planer if anti-kickback
fingers are not operating correctly. failure
to heed this warning could result in serious
personal injury.

to adjust table height chain tension:
1. diSConnECt MaChinE FroM poWEr!
2. remove motor access panel to access table
height to chain (see
figure 64).
3. loosen the two chain tension lock bolts, then
push idler sprocket against chain with mod-
erate pressure to eliminate slack in chain.
While maintaining pressure on idler sprocket,
re-tighten lock bolts (see
figure 64).
NOTICE
DO NOt let chain fall off sprockets. it can
be very difficult to return chain to its proper
location on sprockets without changing
table adjustments.
4. Clean and lubricate chain and sprockets
(refer to
table height chain & Sprockets
on
Page 36 for detailed instructions), then
re-install motor access panel.
