SECTION 5: ADJUSTMENTS

Overview

Once assembly has been completed, your G1021 15" Planer requires just a few adjustments to ready it for use in your shop.

Many adjustments have already been made at the factory, yet we recommend you familiarize yourself with all of the following procedures to gain a better understanding of the Planer’s con- struction and operation.

General control and adjustment locations are shown in Figure 10.

A.The switch is thermally protected and mag- netically controlled and features push but- tons to turn the planer on and off.

B.The handwheel raises and lowers the table and controls the depth of cut. Turning the handwheel clockwise raises the table and counter-clockwise lowers the table.

C.The bed rollers ease stock movement through the planer and are adjustable.

D.The three position feed rate change knob shifts planer feed speed from neutral to 16 and 20 feet per minute.

E.The table lock knob secures the table in a fixed position.
