Knife Setting (cont.)
Adjusting the Outfeed Table
1. Once the knives are set it is now time to set
the outfeed table. For proper operation the
height of the outfeed table must be set to the
highest point of the cutting circle. To do this,
set a straight edge on the outfeed table as
shown in Figure 13.
2. Carefully adjust the table height by turning
the handwheel (A, Figure 14) while rocking
the cutterhead back and forth as shown by
the arrow in Figure 13. The table will be at
it’s correct height when the knife, at it’s
highest point of the cutting circle, just
scrapes the bottom of the straight edge.
3. Once set, lock into place with the height lock
knob (B, Figure 14).
Note
: Failure to adjust the outfeed table will
result in either a curved or sniped work piece.
Method 2: Jack Screws (when using this
method remove the springs and place in
storage)
Note: As described in the previous method, align
the knives with the rabbeting ledge.
1. With the knife in the slot, turn the jack
screws using an allen key (Figure 15) so
that the bevel plus an additional 1/32” of
knife is protruding from the cutterhead.
Note that this 1/32” need not be exact.
4. Next set a straight edge on the outfeed table
as shown in Figure 15 and adjust the
outfeed table height with the handwheel (A,
Figure 14) so that it is level with the knives
5. When properly adjusted, the knife should
just scrape the bottom of the straight edge at
it’s highest point of it’s cutting circle. Use
the jack screws to finely adjust the knife
height at both ends.
6. Once the knife is at the correct height back
the knife lock bolts out into the cutterhead in
order to put pressure onto the knife. Work
from the center bolts outward. Do this in two
steps. First loosely, then firmly the second
time.
7. Repeat the above for all knives.
