The W1218 Rotacator® makes a planer setup process easier and more accurate for adjusting the table rollers, feed rollers, chip breaker, and the pressure bar if equipped on your planer. This tool is a rotating dial indicator on a magnetic base. Shown to the right, this handy device measures table-to-cutterhead alignment and the table roller height. The Rotacator® allows you to set your table within 0.001" from being parallel with the cutterhead.
