ADJUSTMENTS
Location of Controls
Take the time to familiarize yourself with the
controls of your new planer. They will be
frequently mentioned throughout the
instructions in this manual, and the better you
know your machine, the better you can make it
perform. Figure 8 points out the key controls
and their locations.
As with all precision machinery, adjustments to
the planer require very close tolerances. The
adjustments described in this section will be
factory set. However, during the life of the
machine it will necessary to make these
adjustments yourself. Many of these
adjustments require the use of an indicating tool
such as a dial indicator or a Rotacator
® to
achieve accurate results.
