FEED ROLLER SPEEDS
Your planer is equipped with feed roller speeds of 20 and 30 feet per minute depending on belt placement on the pulleys. As a rule, a faster feed rate is used for gen- eral planing operations, while a slower feed rate (because it provides more cuts per inch of stock) gives a finer and smoother finish to the workpiece.
1.To engage the feed rollers, simultaneously push but- ton (A) Fig. 16, and pull downward on handle (B).
2.To disengage the feed rollers, simultaneously push button (A) Fig. 17, and move handle (B) to the raised position, as shown.
3.To change feed roller speeds, disengage the feed rollers as explained in STEP 2.
