Pulley Alignment
Proper pulley alignment prevents premature V-belt
wear and unnecessary load on the motor. The
pulleys are properly aligned when they are parallel
and in the same plane as each other.
Tools Needed Qty
Straightedge 3' .................................................. 1
Hex Wrench 6mm .............................................. 1
Wrenches or Sockets 14mm ............................. 1
To check/re-align pulleys:
1. DISCONNECT PLANER FROM POWER!
2. Remove both cabinet covers and the belt
cover, then use the straightedge to check pul-
ley alignment, as shown in Figure 52.
— If the pulleys are not in the same plane,
loosen the cap screw or hex bolt securing
the pulley to the shaft, then adjust the pul-
leys in or out until they are aligned.
— If the pulleys are not parallel, loosen the
four motor mount hex nuts, then rotate the
motor on its mount until the pulleys are
parallel.
3. Re-check the pulleys and repeat Step 2 if
necessary.
4. When your are satisfied with the pulley align-
ment, re-tighten all fasteners, then replace
the belt cover and cabinet covers.
