See Figure 3-21.
This initial setting will only be an approximation; for now, we are mainly setting the second
right side fence. Once this second right side fence is set, you will be able to accurately
measure the desired width.
SETTING THE LEFT SIDE PRESSURE ROLLERS
There are two pressure rollers on the infeed arm and one on the outfeed side of the mov-
able cutter head. The pressure rollers hold the board against the side cutter fence.
The infeed pressure rollers are mounted on a bracket attached to the movable side cutter.
It moves with the side cutter.
The pressure roller bracket fits into a groove just in front of the side cutter and can be
moved in or out as needed to allow for varying width boards. Where this bracket is placed
also determines the widest board the machine will accept. The pressure rollers should be
set to approximately 1/8" less than the board width.
