Speed Change Knob
Thread the black plastic knob onto the speed change shaft located on the right hand side of the machine. See Figure 4. Note that speed changes should only be done with the motor running. See the Operations section.

Extension Rollers
The infeed and outfeed extension rollers support the work as it goes through the machine.
TO MOUNT THE EXTENSION ROLLERS:
1.Thread three (3) 8mm setscrews into the mounting bracket of the extension rollers. The setscrew holes are located just below the mounting holes. Just start them into the holes for now.
2.Use three (3) hex bolts and washers to mount the extension rollers. See Figure 5. Make sure the roller assembly is oriented as shown in Figure 6.
3.Position a straightedge on the table bed, so it lays on the table and suspends over the extension rollers. See Figure 6.

4.Move the edge of the mounting bracket which is closest to the table bed up or down until the first roller is even with the straight- edge. Tighten the mounting bolts just enough to hold that position. Now adjust the three setscrews until the roller which is furthest out is even with the straightedge. It may require various combinations of loos- ening and/or tightening the setscrews and bolts to level the extension rollers with the table.
