TROUBLESHOOTING
SYMPTON
POSSIBLE CAUSE(S)
1. Low voltage
2. Short circuit in line cord or plug
3. Short circuit in motor
4. Open circuit or loose connection in
motor
5. Incorrect fuses or circuit breakers
6. Defective switch
7. Motor overload results in circuit
breaker tripped
SOLUTIONS
1. Check power supply for proper voltage
2. Inspect line cord and plug for faulty
insulation or shorted connection
3. Inspect connection on motor
4. Inspect connection on motor
5. Replace with correct fuses or circuit
breakers
6. Replace switch
7. Turn the machine off and reset overload
protection.
Frequent tripping of circuit
breaker
Motor stalls or fails to reach
full speed
1. Power overload
2. Low voltage from power supply
3. Undersized line cord
4. Motor overload
5. Short circuit or loose connection in
motor
6. Incorrect fuses or circuit breakers
7. Wood chips clogged
1. Reduce workload on the power supply
2. Check power supply for proper voltage
3. Use line cord of adequate size or reduce
length of wiring
4. Reduce load on motor
5. Inspect the connection in motor for loose or
shorted connection
6. Replace with correct fuses or circuit breakers
7. Inspect chip blower assembly and fan belt.
Remove excessive wood chips
Motor overheats
1. Motor overloaded
2. Excessive dust build-up results in
decreased air circulation
1. Reduce load on motor. Turn off the machine
until motor cools down
2. Remove dust build-up
1. Motor overload
2. Inadequate capacity of circuit
breaker
3. Circuit overload
4. Blades are dull
1. Reduce load on motor
2. Replace with correct circuit breaker
3. Reduce circuit load
4. Sharpen or replace blades
Snipe
1. Inadequate support of workpiece
2. Blades are dull
3. Uneven force on cutterhead
4. Rollercase is not level with planer
base
5. Workpiece is not butted properly
1. Support long workpiece with additional
platform
2. Replace blades
3. Push workpiece gently during operation
4. Adjust table and rollercase level properly
5. Butt end to end each workpiece as it passes
through planer
Surface not smooth
1. Blades are dull
2. Fuzzy grain due to high moisture
content in wood
3. Torn grain due to blades cutting
against grain
4. The cut is too deep
1. Replace blades
2. Use dry wood
3. Change direction and feed workpiece along
grain
4. Decrease depth of cut
Uneven thickness from side to
side
Rollercase is not positioned level with
planer base
Adjust table and rollercase level properly
