8.2 Adjusting the chip thickness
Fig. 8-1: Bridge guard
Note: The maximum chip thickness per work cycle is 5 mm.
The maximum depth of cut is directly related to the following factors:
• Workpiece width
• Type of wood (hardwood or softwood
• Wood dampness
• Feed rate
• Cutterblock (2 or 4 Cutterblock Possibilities)
• Cutterblock Possibilities (SS, HS, HW)
• The motor power of your machine
The depth of cut is adjusted with the adjustment wheel on
the feeder-side of the planer table
Move the lever until the desired value has been achieved

8.2.1 Adjusting the joint
Note: The machine is set by the manufacturer so as to produce an open joint of 0.2 to 0.5 mm with a workpi-
ece length of 2 m (Standard setting). The position of the in-feed planer table must be adjusted with regards to
the flight of the knife to achieve particular requirements (extremely splayed, open or straight joints): Contact
service technician
Warning! Risk of injury! Improper adjustment and setup work can lead to serious physical injury or material
damage. For this reason, this work may only be carried out by authorised, trained personnel who are familiar
with how to operate the machine and in strict observance of all safety instructions.
