SECTION 5: ADJUSTMENTS
Keep loose clothing out of the way of machinery and keep hair pulled back.
Disconnect power to the machine when perform- ing any adjustments or maintenance. Failure to do this may result in seri- ous personal injury.
Wear safety glasses dur- ing the entire adjustment process. Failure to com- ply may result in serious personal injury.
Cutting Depth
Cutting depth is controlled by moving the infeed table up/down in relation to the cutterhead and outfeed table. The infeed table can be controlled by turning the adjustment knob beneath the infeed table. To adjust the cutting depth:
1.Place a straightedge evenly on the surface of the outfeed table so the straightedge extends over the cutterhead and across the infeed table as shown in Figure 6.
2.Measure the distance from the infeed table to the bottom of the straightedge as shown in Figure 7. This measurement will be the depth of cut.
3.Adjust the infeed table to the desired depth of cut. The maximum depth of cut for this machine is 5⁄64". However, we recommend cutting at 1⁄16" depths for increased safety.

Do not exceed a cutting depth of 5⁄64". Failure to follow this caution will seriously increase the risk of kickback and possible injury!
