SCALE AND POINTER
A dual English/Metric scale (D) Fig. 17, and pointer (E) is
conveniently located on the front of the machine and in-
dicates the thickness of the finished workpiece. Adjust-
ment to the pointer can be made by running a piece of
wood through the machine. Measure the thickness of
the workpiece and if an adjustment is necessary, loosen
two screws (F) and adjust pointer accordingly. Then
tighten two screws.
RECOMMENDED
DEPTH OF CUT
NOTE: One revolution of the raising and lowering handle
will move the cutterhead up or down 3/32 of an inch.
A 3/32" depth of cut can be made in soft woods on
stock up to 8" wide and in hard woods on stock up to 7"
wide; see chart in Fig. 18.
For 10" and 12" wide soft wood, we recommend a maxi-
mum depth of cut of 1/16". For 10" and 12" wide hard
wood, a maximum depth of cut of 3/64" is recommended;
see chart in Fig. 18.
IMPORTANT: A 3/32" DEPTH OF CUT CAN BE MADE
IN 10" AND 12" WIDE SOFT AND HARD WOODS;
HOWEVER, CONTINUOUS OPERATION AT THIS DEPTH
CAN CAUSE PREMATURE MOTOR FAILURE.
LEVELING
TABLE EXTENSIONS
For optimum performance, the table extensions, one of
which is shown at (A) Fig. 19, must be level with the
planer table. To check and adjust if necessary, proceed
as follows:
1. DISCONNECT TOOL FROM POWER SOURCE.
2. Place a straight edge (B) Fig. 19, on the planer table
with one end of the straight edge extending out over the
infeed table extension (A) as shown. Check to see if the
table extension is level with the planer table on both
ends of table extension.
3. If an adjustment is necessary, loosen locknut (D) and
adjust stop screw (E) on each end of the table (A) until
table extension is level with planer table. Then tighten
locknut. Recheck and make certain inside edge of table
extension is level with planer table. NOTE: If necessary,
loosen two screws (C), adjust table extension and
tighten two screws.
4. Adjust opposite end of table extension (A) in the
same manner. Make sure table is solidly supported in
the level position even with downward pressure on the
table.
5. Check and adjust outfeed table extension in the
same manner.
