Figure 7. Extension roller-to-table alignment.
Extension Rollers
The extension roller assemblies are identical for
both the infeed and the outfeed ends of the
table. To help minimize snipe, you may have to
adjust the extension rollers periodically so they
are approximately 0.030" above the table.
To mount the extension rollers, do these
steps:
1. Loosen the setscrews where the table
rollers mount to the planer body (on both
ends) as shown in Figure 6.
2. Use a wrench to lower the rollers on their
eccentric shafts
3. Position the extension roller assemblies on
the planer table, and install the M8-1.25 x
20 mounting bolts and washers finger tight.
4. Place a straightedge across the table and
the extension rollers as shown in Figure 7.
5. Turn the adjustment setscrews shown in
Figure 8, so the extension roller assemblies
are flush with the table surface as
indicated by the straightedge.
6. Tighten the mounting bolts to secure the
extension bar in place. See Figure 8.
The top of the rollers should now be
completely even with the top of the table.
Double-check to make sure that the rollers
did not move during the tightening process.
DO NOT adjust the table rollers you
previously retracted into the planer table,
because the final set of adjustments will be
explained in the ADJUSTMENTS section.
