INFEED TABLE

POSITIVE STOPS

D I S C O N N E C T M A C H I N E F R O M

POWER SOURCE.

Positive stops are provided to limit the height and depth of the infeed table. To adjust the stops, loosen two locknuts (F) and (G) Fig. 37, and turn the two adjusting screws (J) and (K) as required. Then retighten the locknuts (F) and (G). A good suggestion is to set the upper positive stop (J) for your finish or final cut. This means that you will be able to rapidly set the infeed table for a finish or final cut without checking the scale and pointer. Also the lower positive stop (K) can be set for the maximum depth-of-cut or if you desire to limit the depth-of-cut, adjust the stop screw (K) accordingly.
