TABLE ROLLERS (Fig.16)
The planer is equipped with two-table rollers (A); which aid infeeding the
stock. This will reduce friction between the stock and the table and will
rotate as the stock is fed through the planer.
1.
To raise the table rollers, loosen locking level (B) as illustrated in
Fig.16 and pull control lever (C) upward to the required height
setting.
2.
To lower the table rollers, loosen locking lever (B) and push
thecontrol lever (C) downward to required height setting.
3.
After adjusting height of the table rollers, tighten the lock lever (C) in
order to lock in position.
CHECKING AND ADJUSTING TABLE ROLLERS’S HEIGHT
It is not possible to give the exact dimensions on the proper height setting
of table rollers because each type of wood has different behavioral
patterns. As a general rule, when planning rough stock, the table rollers
should be set high (.003” to .005”) above the table surface. When planning
finish stock, the table rollers should be set low (.001”) above or level with
the table surface.
To verify and adjusting the height of the table rollers, proceed as follows:
1.
Disconnect the machine from the power resource.
2.
With the table rollers in the lowest position, place a straight edge (A)
Fig.17, across both table rollers (B) or the left side of the table as
shown.
3.
With a feeler gauge (B) Fig.18, measure the gap between the table
surface and straight edge (A) near the infeed roller.
4.
If adjustment to the infeed table roller is necessary, loosen the
locknut (D) Fig.19;
located under the table and below the infeed roller
and
rotate adjustment nuts (E) as required to raise or lower the
height of the infeed roller.
NOTE: It will be necessary to raise the table in order to gain access to the
adjustment nuts. Tighten locknut (D) after adjustment is made.
5.
Verify and adjust the height if the infeed table roller or the other side
of the table in the same manner.
6.
To check the height of the
outfeed table roller, proceed
as follows: with a feeler
gauge (B) Fig.20, measure the
gap between the table
surface and straight edge (A)
near the outfeed roller (F).
