breaker.
To adjust the height of the infeed and outfeed rollers, and the chip breaker using wood blocks and a feeler gauge:
1.Make 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 over- all adjustments. For best results, remove board warpage by squaring the narrow sides of 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 32.

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