4.1. PLANER TABLE HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT

Per pass a maximum of 1/8" material can be removed.

Workpieces of max. 8" thickness can be planed.

Height adjustment is made with a handwheel (B, Fig.10). One

full turn of the crank changes the height of the planer bed (C,

Fig.10) by 5/32".
· Clockwise turning = raises the planer bed
· Counter-clockwise turning = lowers the planer bed. The planing

thickness is indicated on the scale (D, Fig.10).

4.2. INFEED TABLE HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT

The infeed table (E, Fig,11) is adjusted by using adjusting lever
(G, Fig.11) for edge jointing and surface planing.

· The scale (F, Fig.11) next to the adjusting lever (G, Fig.11)
corresponds to 1/32" material removal.

- After adjustment, tighten ratchet lock lever (H, Fig.11)

- Per pass a maximum of 1/8" material can be removed.

4.3. JOINTER FENCE ADJUSTMENT

The jointer fence (I, Fig.12) provides lateral support for the
workpiece when surface planing.

· After loosening the ratchet lock lever (J, Fig.12) the jointer
fence can be adapted to the workpiece width.
· After loosening the ratchet lock lever (K, Fig.12) & lock pin

(L, Fig.12) the jointer fence extrusion can be tilted to the angle
