Resumen del manual
RAISING AND LOWERING HEAD ASSEMBLY The head assembly (A) Fig. 15, contains the cutterhead feed rolls, chip deflector and motor. Raising and lowering the head assembly controls the depth-of-cut on your planer. To raise or lower the head assembly, rotate the raising and lowering handle (B). NOTE: One revolution of the handle will move the cutterhead up or down approximately 5/64 . An English/metric scale (C) and pointer (D) is located on the side of the planer for ease in setting the height of the cutterhead. RECOMMENDED DEPTH-OF-CUT A dual English/Metric scale and pointer, located at the right front of the machine, indicates the thickness of the workpiece. NOTE: One revolution of the raising and lowering handle (B) Fig. 15, will move the cutterhead up or down 5/64 . A 3/32 depth-of-cut can be made in soft woods on stock 8 wide and in hard woods on stock up to 7 wide. See chart Fig. 16. For 10 and 12 wide soft wood, we recommend a maximum depth-of-cut of 1/16 . For 10 and 12 wide hard wood, a maximum depth-of-cut of 3/64 is recommended. IMPORTANT: A 3/32. DEPTH-OF-CUT CAN BE MADE IN 10.AND 12.WIDE SOFT AND HARD WOODS. HOWEVER, CONTINUOUS OPERATION AT THIS CUTTING DEPTH CAN CAUSE PREMATURE MOTOR FAILURE.

To check the extension tables and adjust if necessary, proceed as follows: 1. Place a straight edge (B) Fig. 17, on the infeed extension table (A) with one end extending out over the extension table as shown. Check to see if the infeed table is level with the planer table on both ends of the extension table. 2. If an adjustment is necessary, loosen locknut (C) Fig. 17, and adjust stop screw (D) on each side of the extension table (A) until the extension table is level with the planer table (E); then tighten locknut (C). Recheck and make certain inside edge of table extension is perfectly level with the planer table. If necessary, loosen two screws (F), adjust extension table and retighten two screws (F). Adjust opposite side of the table in the same manner. Make certain the extension table is solidly supported when there is downward pressure on the table. 3. Check and adjust outfeed extension table in the same manner. STORING THE POWER CORD Wire hangers (A) Fig. 18, are provided on the underside of the outfeed extension table as shown, to store the power cord (B) when the planer is not in use and when transporting the machine. ADJUSTING KNIVES To check and adjust the knives, proceed as follows: 1. DISCONNECT THE TOOL FROM THE POWER SOURCE. 2. Lower the head assembly by turning handle (B) Fig. 15. 3. Remove chip deflector (A) Fig. 19. 4. Carefully place knife setting gage (B) Fig. 20, on the cutterhead so the rounded sections are directly over the knife as shown. When adjusted correctly, the knife should just contact the bottom of the center portion at each end of gage (B). Check the other knife in the same manner. 10 Fig. 17 A B E C D F A B Fig. 18 A Fig. 19 B Fig. 20 C C C C Fig. 21 Fig. 22 5. If an adjustment to one or both knives is necessary, slightly loosen the seven locking screws, six of which are shown at (C) Fig. 21, by turning the screws CLOCKWISE into the knife locking bar just enough to relieve stress in the cutterhead and not disturb the knife setting. 6. With setting gage (B) Fig. 20, in place, apply pressure to the knife being reset. Turn the seven knife locking screws (C) Fig. 21, CLOCKWISE until the knife locking bar becomes loose. Lift springs will automatically raise the knife until it comes in contact with gage (B) Fig. 20. Snug the knife locking bar by lightly turning the seven locking screws (C) Fig. 21, COUNTERCLOCKWISE. IMPORTANT: AT THIS TIME, ONLY TIGHTEN THE KNIFE LOCKING BAR JUST ENOUGH TO HOLD THE KNIFE IN POSITON INSIDE THE CUTTERHEAD SLOT. 7. If the other knife needs adjustment, repeat STEP 6. 8. After both knives are positioned in the cutterhead, turn each of the seven screws, six of which are shown at (C) Fig. 21, COUNTERCLOCKWISE until the knife is secure in the cutterhead. NOTE: When tightening knife locking screws, tighten the end screws first, then inward toward the center of the cutterhead. 9. Replace chip deflector (A) Fig. 19. REPLACING AND RESETTING KNIVES The cutterhead knives supplied with the machine are dual-edged. When one side becomes dull, they can be flipped over and reset in the cutterhead and used again. CAUTION: IF THE KNIVES ARE TO BE REMOVED FOR SHARPENING OR REPLACEMENT, EXTREME CARE SHOULD BE TAKEN AS THE KNIVES ARE VERY SHARP. TO REPLACE OR RESET THE KNIVES, PROCEED AS FOLLOWS: 1. DISCONNECT THE TOOL FROM THE POWER SOURCE. 2. Lower the head assembly by turning handle (B) Fig. 15. Remove chip deflector (A) Fig. 19. 4. Carefully place knife setting gage (B) Fig. 20, on the cutterhead so ...
