TABLE ROLLERS

Your planer is supplied with two table rollers (A) Fig. 21,

which aid in feeding the stock by reducing friction be-

tween the stock and the table and rotate as the stock

is fed through the planer.

1. To raise the table rollers, loosen locking lever (B) Fig.

21, and pull control lever (C) upward to the desired

height setting.

2. To lower the table rollers, loosen locking lever (B) Fig.

21, and push control lever (C) downward to the desired

height setting.

3. After adjusting height of the table rollers, tighten

locking lever (B) Fig. 21.

CHECKING AND ADJUSTING TABLE

ROLLER HEIGHT

It is not possible to give exact dimensions on the proper

height setting of the table rollers because each type of

wood has different behavioral patterns. As a general

rule, when planing rough stock, the table rollers should

be set high (.003" to .005") above the table surface.

When planing finish stock, the table rollers should be set

low (.001") above or level with the table surface.

To check and adjust the height of the table rollers,

proceed as follows:

Fig. 23

Fig. 24

1. DISCONNECT MACHINE FROM

POWER SOURCE.

2. With the table rollers in the lowest position, lay a

straight edge (A) Fig. 22, across both table rollers (B) on

the left side of the table as shown.

3. With a feeler gage (B) Fig. 23, measure the gap

between the table surface and the straight edge (A) near

the infeed roller (C).

4. If an adjustment to the infeed table roller is necessary,

loosen locknut (D) Fig. 24, which is located under the table

and below the infeed roller and rotate adjustment nuts (E)

as necessary to raise or lower the height of the infeed

roller. NOTE: It will be necessary to raise the table to gain

access to the adjustment nuts. Tighten locknut (D) after

adjustment is made.

5. Check and adjust the height of the infeed table roller

on the other side of the table in the same manner.
