The gear box has two feed speeds. These are set
by pulling out or pushing in the shift lever (Fig.
30). Always change feed speed while the machine
is running. A label showing the lever positions is
affixed just above the lever. It is also shown in
Figure 31.
CAUTION: Do not attempt to change
feed speed while stock is passing
through the machine. Damage to the
gearbox may result.
STOCK RETURN ROLLERS
The two rollers on top the machine serve as a
convenient rest for stock. They save time and
motion for the operator as the stock is returned to
the infeed side.
DEPTH OF CUT
The cutting depth scale is a combination
inch/metric scale (Fig. 32), with a cutting range
from 0 to 6" (152.4mm). A manual scale is
mounted directly to the front column. The model
15S planer also features a digital scale for easier,
more precise depth readings.
The distance of upward or downward movement
is controlled by the handwheel (Fig. 32). Before
moving the table up or down, loosen the locking
handles (Fig. 32). After obtaining proper table
position, tighten the locking handles.
Maximum depth of cut is 3/16". A limiter (Fig. 30)
on the front of the head casting limits the depth of
cut on full width planing under 1/8".
The digital scale should be calibrated before
operating the planer. Refer to page 24 for
instructions on calibration and function of the
digital scale.
