Anti-Kickback
Fingers
The Model G0603X provides an anti-kickback
system as a safety feature. The anti-kickback
fingers hang from a rod suspended across the
cutterhead casting. The anti-kickback fingers
should be inspected regularly.
Check the anti-kickback fingers (see Figure 40
)
to ensure that they swing freely and easily. If the
fingers resist easy movement, clean them with a
wood resin solvent.
Do not apply oil or other lubricants to the anti-
kickback fingers. Oil or grease will attract dust,
restricting the free movement of the fingers.
Proper operation of the anti-kickback fin-
gers is essential for the safe operation of
this machine. Failure to ensure that they
are working properly could result in serious
operator injury.

Proper pulley alignment prevents premature belt
wear. The pulleys are properly aligned when they
are parallel and in the same plane as each other.
Looking down across the outside faces of the pul

leys, use a straightedge, visual sight or a laser tool
on the edge of the pulleys to judge alignment.
To adjust V-belt pulley alignment:
1. DISCONNECT THE PLANER FROM
POWER!
2. Remove the top left, bottom left, and bottom
rear access panels.
