4. Make sure the precision straightedge and the

table surface are free of debris, then place
the straightedge on the back of the outfeed
table and across the cutterhead.

Note: In the following steps, the process
of checking the outfeed table for the cor-
rect height above the cutterhead is different
between knife-style and spiral cutterheads.

Knife-Style cutterhead: the correct outfeed
table height is

3

64

" (1.3mm) above the

cutterhead Body, as measured with a feeler
gauge (see

Figure 69). rotate the cutterhead

to make sure the knives do not interfere with
proper measurement.

Spiral cutterhead: the outfeed table is
at the correct height above the cutterhead
when an insert is at the top-dead-center or
at its highest point of rotation just touches
the straightedge without lifting it, as shown
in

Figure 69. rotate the cutterhead pulley to

properly position an insert below the straight-
edge.

5. if the outfeed table surface is not at the right

height, use the handwheel to bring the table
to the correct height above the cutterhead,
then tighten the table lock to secure the set-
ting.

6. to check the outfeed table parallelism with

the cutterhead body, place the straightedge
on the front of the table and measure the
height above the cutterhead, as instructed in

Step 4.

— if the measurements of the front and back

of the table are within 0.002" or less of
each other, no further adjustments to the
outfeed table are required. proceed to

Step 12.

— if the front table measurement is Not cor-

rect and within the tolerance of the back
measurement, continue to

Step 7.

7. remove the front table cover to expose

the table adjustment bolts, as shown in

Figure 70.

Note: For Models G9953, G9953ZX, and
G9953ZXF, you will need to remove the
brake handle and hub before removing the
cover.
