4.Set the wheel height between 1⁄16" and 1⁄8" below the height of the material you intend to mill. The wheels, when properly adjusted, will put consistent downward pressure on your workpiece. Figure 4.

The power feeder can also be set to support your work against a fence. Figure 5.
1.Raise the horizontal shaft so that when the power feeder head is turned, there will be no interference with the fence.
2.Loosen the lock handles on the pivot joint assembly.
3.Rotate head to the desired position.
4.Adjust the height and distance from the fence.

As with the previous arrangement, you will want to set the distance between the rollers and (in this case) the fence about 1⁄8" to 3⁄16" under the thick- ness of the material to be milled. The rollers should also be skewed slightly toward the direc- tion of feed to hold the workpiece against the table. Figure 6. When using the power feeder this way, it is essential to make sure that the fence is fastened tightly in place.
