—If your outfeed table is correctly set, no adjustments are necessary.

—If the knife lifts the straightedge off the table or the table is below the straight- edge, adjust the outfeed table height with the handwheel until the straightedge just touches a knife at its highest point of rota- tion.

5.Lock the outfeed table, reinstall the cutterhead guard, and close the rear access panel.

Test Run

Once the assembly is complete, test run your machine to make sure it runs properly.

If, during the test run, you cannot easily locate the source of an unusual noise or vibration, stop using the machine immediately, then review the Troubleshooting on Page 32.

If you still cannot remedy a problem, contact our Tech Support at (570) 546-9663 for assistance.

To test run the machine:

1.Make sure you have read the safety instruc- tions at the beginning of the manual and that the machine is setup properly.

2.Make sure all tools and objects used during set up are cleared away from the machine.

3.Connect the machine to the power source.

4.Turn the machine ON.

5.Listen for abnormal noises or actions and watch for vibration. The machine should run smoothly.

—Strange or unusual noises must be inves- tigated and corrected before operating the machine further. Always disconnect the machine from power when investigating or correcting potential problems.

6.Turn the machine OFF.

Adjustments

For your convenience, the adjustments listed below have been performed at the factory and no further setup is required to operate your machine.

However, because of the many variables involved with shipping, we recommend that you at least verify the following adjustments to ensure the best possible results from your new machine.

Step-by-step instructions for these adjustments can be found in SECTION 7: SERVICE.

Factory adjustments that should be verified:

1.Knife Settings (Page 34).

2.Depth Scale Calibration (Page 36).

3.Fence Stop Accuracy (Page 37).

Tighten V-Belt

The final step in the setup process must be done after approximately 16 hours of operation. During this first 16 hours, the V-belt will stretch and seat into the pulley grooves. After this 16 hours, you must retension the V-belt to avoid slippage and burn out. Refer to Page 31 when you are ready to perform this important adjustment.

Note: Pulleys and belts can get hot. This is a nor- mal condition. Allow them to cool before making adjustments.

A small amount of black belt dust at the bottom of the belt housing is normal during the life of the machine and does not indicate a problem with the machine or V-belt.
