SERVICE

To adjust the table parallelism, do these steps:

1.DISCONNECT THE PLANER FROM THE POWER SOURCE!

2.Remove the motor access panel and locate the chain on the underside of the table.

3.Loosen the lock bolts and idler sprocket (see Chain Tension instructions on Page 28).

4.Mark the location of one tooth in the sprocket that you are adjusting.

5.Move the chain away from only the sprocket you want to adjust so only that sprocket can be turned independent of the chain.

Note: If the left side of the table is too high, the left two sprockets will need to be adjusted. Each tooth on the sprocket represents 0.016" of vertical movement as the cogs are turned. Make sure, as you turn the sprockets, to keep an accurate tooth count to ensure that the table is adjusted equally.

6.Carefully turn the sprocket (clockwise to raise the table; counterclockwise to lower the table) just enough to position the next tooth at the marked location, then fit the chain around sprocket again.

7.Repeat Steps 4–6with each sprocket that needs to be adjusted until the table-to-cutterhead clearance is within 0.016" from one side to the other.

8.Make sure the chain is properly fitted on the sprock- ets, and tighten the idler sprocket and lock bolts.

9.Micro-adjust the table position by loosening the cap screws (Figure 24) using a 6mm wrench, and lifting the table upward or downward until the table and cutterhead are in alignment.

Note: This process may require adjusting the col- umns on both the left and right hand sides until you find the correct combination.

10.Replace the motor access panel.
