INFEED & OUTFEED ROLLER
SPRING TENSION
The infeed roller (B, Fig. 22) and outfeed roller
(E, Fig. 22) are those parts of your planer that
feed the stock while it is being planed. The infeed
roller and the outfeed roller are under spring
tension and this tension must be sufficient to feed
the stock uniformly through the planer without
slipping but should not be so tight that it causes
damage to the board. The tension should be
equal at both ends of each roller.
To adjust the spring tension of the infeed and
outfeed rollers, turn screws (Fig. 23) with a hex
wrench. Turn screws on both ends of
infeed/outfeed rollers in the same manner.
HEIGHT OF INFEED ROLLER,
CHIPBREAKER, & OUTFEED ROLLER
The infeed roller, chipbreaker and outfeed roller
are adjusted at the factory. The height
relationship between these items and the
cutterhead is crucial for accurate and safe
planing. The infeed roller, chipbreaker, and
outfeed roller should each be set at 0.02"
(0.5mm) below the cutting circle. See Fig. 24.
If any adjustments are necessary for the infeed
roller, chipbreaker, or outfeed roller, they should
be done carefully. Use the following steps as an
example of procedure.
