Feed Roller Adjustment Stock Pre-sizing

Make sure the powerfeed rollers are lowered from their stock setting. Do not lower the rollers past the point at which the center of the roller axle extends below the bottom edge of the headstock. It is also recommended to tighten the spring ten- sion adjusting nuts several rotations to firm-up the down force on the board. This will encourage smoother feeding and reduce the risk of kick back. Refer to Figures 20 & 21 for a diagram of the feed roller adjustment components.

CAUTION: Before turning on the Planer/Moulder to make a first cut, raise the table up high enough so that the board will be firmly pinched against the table by the infeed roller. Failure to observe this final step may create a potentially serious kick back hazard.

It is extremely important to pre-cut all material so that it is not more than 1⁄8'' wider than the finished profile. Attempting to cut more than 1⁄8'' off the overall width can overload and break the knives resulting in serious damage and/or injury. Stock should be planed down to within 1⁄16'' of final thick- ness.
