ADJUSTMENTS
FIG. 18
CHIP BREAKER ADJUSTMENT
The chip breaker is the plate under the top cover
that keeps woodchips from falling onto the outfeed
roller. The bottom edge of the chip breaker helps hold
the stock flat on the table. It should be parallel with the
cutterhead and set 0.020" (0.5mm) below the carbide
cutters.
1. Unplug the planer from the power source.
2. Place a gauge block (A-Fig.19) on the table directly
under the cutterhead. Place a 0.020" (0.5mm) feeler
gauge on top of the gauge block. Lower the head
assembly until one of the knives touches the feeler
gauge.
NOTE: See " PLANER TABLE HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT" ,
Figure 8, page 10 on how to lock the head in postion. Do
NOT move the head until all steps are complete.
3. Place the gauge block without the feeler gauge under
one side of the chip breaker. The bottom of the chip
breaker (A-Fig.20) should touch the top of the gauge
block.
4. To adjust the height of the chip breaker, remove the
Upper Cover (#1) and Dust Port (#2).
5. Loosen the locking nuts (A-Fig.21) and turn the
adjusting set screw at that end until the desired height
is reached.
6. Place the gauge block on the other side of the chip
breaker and check the height. Repeat step 5 and
tighten the lock nuts to retain the adjustment.
7. Replace the Upper Cover and Dust Port.
