Setting Infeed Table
The infeed table on the Model G0495X has positive stop bolts that, when properly set up, allow the operator to quickly adjust the infeed table between finish/final cuts and shaping/heavy cuts.
We recommend setting the minimum depth of cut to 1⁄32" and the maximum depth of cut to 1⁄8" for most operations. DO NOT exceed 1⁄8" cut per pass on this machine or the risk of kickback and serious injury will be greatly increased!
Each positive stop bolt (Figure 56) controls the top or bottom range of the table movement. The jam nuts lock the positive stop bolts in position so they won't move during operation.

Calibrating Infeed
Table
The depth scale on the infeed table can be cali- brated or "zeroed" if it is not correct.

Straightedge | 1 |
Wrench 12mm | 1 |
To calibrate the depth scale:
1.Set the outfeed table height as described in
Setting Outfeed Table Height on Page 15.
2.Move the cutterhead guard out of the way.
3.Place a straightedge across the infeed and outfeed tables.
4.Adjust the infeed table until it is level with the outfeed table, as illustrated in Figure 57.
