Know the Transmitting Rollers of Your Planer

A – Anti-Kickback Fingers

B – Infeed Roller

C – Chipbreaker

D – Cutterhead

D – Pressure Bar

E – Outfeed Roller

The infeed roller (B, Fig. 23) and outfeed roller (F, Fig. 23) are those parts of your planer that feed the stock while it is being planed. The infeed and outfeed rollers are under spring tension and this tension must be sufficient to feed the stock uniformly through the planer without slipping but should not be so tight that it causes damage to the board. The tension should be equal at both ends of each roller.

Anti-Kickback Fingers

The anti-kickback fingers (A, Fig 23) help prevent kickback of stock. They operate by gravity and it is necessary to inspect them occasionally to make sure they are free of gum and pitch, so that they move independently and operate correctly.

Adjusting Infeed & Outfeed Roller Spring Tension

To adjust the spring tension of the infeed and outfeed rollers, turn screws (G & H, Fig. 24) with a hex wrench. Turn screws on opposite end of infeed/outfeed rollers in the same manner.
