W1754 20" Planer With Mobile Base

To adjust the height of the infeed and outfeed rollers, chip breaker and pressure bar using wood blocks and a feeler gauge, do these steps:

1.Build the wood blocks by cutting a straight 6' long 2x4 in half.

Note: Having the wood blocks at an even height is critical to the accuracy of your overall adjustments. For best results, remove board warpage by squaring the 2x4 with a jointer and table saw before cutting in half.

2.DISCONNECT THE PLANER FROM THE POWER SOURCE!

3.Lower the bed rollers below the table.

4.Place one wood block along the left side of the table, and place the other wood block along the right side of the table, as illustrated in Figure 33.

5.Remove the dust hood, top cover, and V-belt cover.

6.Adjust the table and use the feeler gauge until you have a 0.040" gap between the edge of a knife at bottom dead center (find by rocking cutterhead pul- ley) and the wood blocks.

7.Lock the table height in place, as the wood blocks will now be your reference points for the rest of the adjustments.

8.Loosen the infeed roller adjustment jam nuts (Figure 30, Page 32) and turn the adjustment set screws on each end to raise the feed roller above the wood block (if necessary), then bring it back down so it just touches the wood block on both sides.

9.Lock the infeed roller adjustment set screws in place with the jam nuts, making sure they do not move while tightening.

10.Without moving the table, adjust the chip breaker (Figure 32), pressure bar (Figure 31), and outfeed roller (Figure 30) in the same manner, using the wood blocks as your reference point.

11.When you are finished with the adjustments, replace the top cover, dust hood, and V-belt cover.
