Setting.Feed.Rate
The infeed and outfeed rollers move the workpiece
through the planer while keeping it flat and providing a
consistent rate of movement. The speed that these rollers
move the workpiece through the planer is the feed rate.
Generally, low feed rates are used for dimensioning, while
higher feed rates are used for finishing.
The figure below illustrates the three different positions
of the feed rate control knob:
• Push knob in to use high feed rate.
• Pull the knob out to use the low feed rate.
• Move knob to center position to place gearbox in
neutral.
High Feed Rate .......................................... 28 FPM
Low Feed Rate .......................................... 16 FPM

Adjusting/Replacing.
Knives.(W1864)
Setting the height of the knives correctly is crucial to the
proper operation of your planer and is very important in
keeping the knives sharp. If one knife protrudes higher
than the others, it will do the majority of the work, dull
much faster, and produce poor cutting results.
The knife-setting jig included with this planer is designed
to set the knives at a uniform distance of 0.070" above
the cutterhead surface.
Note:
If you need to replace or sharpen a knife, you can
remove the knife from the cutterhead during
Step 4
of
the following procedure. Thoroughly clean out any debris
from the knife slots before replacing the knives.
