Resumen del manual
When used on its side, you will want to adjust the rollers so the leading wheel is about 1/4" closer to the table than the trailing wheel. There are three important factors to consider when using the power feeder with a table saw; pinching, binding and blade height. If you are ripping boards 4" or wider, place the power feeder between the fence and blade with the rollers turned slightly toward the fence. If you are ripping materials less than 4", set the rollers as close as possible to the fence. It is important, in this case, that you don’t set the rollers so the waste side of your material binds or pinches the blade. The rollers should be angled with no more than 1/8" of variation between the leading and trailing wheels. IMPORTANT: It is essential, when ripping narrow materials, that the blade height on your table saw be at, or just slightly below the bottom of your rollers. See Figure 9. If the material you are cutting requires you to place the saw blade directly below you rollers, set your saw blade slightly below the full thickness of your workpiece. Figure 9 - 9 B. FEED RATES The optimum feed rate for the Model G1778 Power Feed will vary depending on a number of factors, including; the thickness of the material to be cut, the hardness of the workpiece, the speed of the cutting tool and the configuration of the cutting tool (number of teeth, shape of cutter, etc. Generally, the following rules can be followed with a good level of success. • The thicker the material to be cut, the slower the feed rate. • The harder the material, the slower the feed rate. • The faster the cutter speed, the faster the feed rate. • The greater the number of teeth or cutting surfaces, the faster the feed rate. X. GEARING The Model G1778 Power Feed gearbox allows you to tailor your feed rate to match individual projects. Feed rates range from 16 to 52 feet-per-minute. See Figure 11. To change gears: 1. Remove the gearbox cover by unscrewing the knurled knob on the front of the power head. 2. Determine the speed you desire, based on your material and cutter configuration. 3. Locate the desired feed rate on the chart shown in Figure 11. 4. Remove the hex nuts which hold the drive gears in place. See Figure 10. 5. Remove the existing gears and replace with the new gears. 6. Replace the hex nuts and attach the drive gear cover. Hex Nuts Figure 10 - 10 XI. MAINTENANCE A. GEARBOX The internal gearbox holds 65cc of SAE 30W gear oil. The oil should be drained and replaced after every 500 hours of operation. A drain plug at the bottom of the gearbox provides access for removal of old oil. Re-fill to within 3/4" of the filler plug. B. ROLLERS Each of the three roller wheels is fitted with a grease fitting. Lubricate after every 200 hours of use. C. CHAINS AND GEARS Lubricate drive gears and chains with grease after every 200 hours of operation. Clean and lubricate all the machined surfaces with light machine oil. XII.
