Fence Adjustment

1.To laterally adjust the aluminum fence plates, loosen the two fence locking levers (refer to C, Figure 8), slide the fence plates to the required positions and tighten locking levers.

The aluminum fence plates should be adjusted inward so that the opening at the spindle is just enough to clear the cutter.

2.The right fence plate (infeed) can be moved independently, in or out, depending on the type of shaping operation that is being performed. To move the right fence plate in or out, loosen the locking knob (A, Figure

23)and turn the adjusting knob (B, Figure

23). Precise movements are possible by using the dial indicator beneath the knob. When finished, re-tighten locking knob (A, Figure 23).

3.The entire fence assembly can be rapidly positioned on the table by slightly loosening both locking handles (C, Figure 23) and moving the fence assembly to desired position by rotating the handwheel (D, Figure 23). Use the dial indicator for more precise measurement. Re-tighten the handles (C, Figure 23) when finished.

Sliding Table Adjustment

There are six adjustable eccentric rollers (A, Figure 24) on the sliding table. Wherever the sliding table is unstable or not traveling in line, adjust the sliding table as follows:

1.Loosen the roller (A, Figure 24) with a hex wrench (C, FIgure 24).

2.Use open end wrench (B, Figure 24) to rotate the rollers as needed.

3.Lock the setting of the roller by using the hex wrench (C, Figure 24).

To operate the sliding table (F, Figure 24) pull down on the knurled knob (D, Figure 24) and rotate it 180 degrees until the opposite hole engages the pin. The sliding table can then be moved back and forth.

To lock the sliding table in centered position, move the sliding table flush with the main table. Pull down on the knurled knob (D, Figure 24) and rotate it 180 degrees until it engages the pin.
