WARNING:
Before performing any adjustment, make sure the
tool is unplugged from the power supply and the
switch is in the OFF position. Failure to heed this
warning could result in serious personal injury.
THICKNESS SCALE ADJUSTMENT
See Figure 15.
Located on the right front of the planer, the thickness scale
shows the depth of the finished workpiece. Inaccurate cuts
can be prevented by routinely checking the alignment of
the thickness scale.
Table extensions must be level with planer table.
Plane a scrap piece of wood then measure the depth of
the finished piece.
If properly adjusted, the depth of the finished piece should
be the same as indicated on the thickness scale.
If out of adjustment, loosen the scale indicator screws
holding the scale indicator and adjust the thickness
indicator to the correct setting.
Retighten screws securely.
BLADE ADJUSTMENT
See Figure 16.
Tiny nicks may appear on the blades as a result of picking
up sand or other particles on a workpiece and then run-
ning the workpiece through the planer. Slight adjustments
can be made to one or both blades to offset such planing
imperfections.
Unplug the planer.
Lower the cutterhead assembly.
Remove the dust hood knobs holding the dust hood in
place; remove hood and set aside.
WARNING:
To avoid injury, NEVER rotate the cutterhead by
hand.
Using the hex key, loosen the blade locking screws that
secure the blade in the cutterhead.
Push the notched end of the cutter blade on either the
left or right side to shift the blade as desired. The blade
can be shifted up to 3/64 in.
Retighten the blade locking screws securely.
Replace the dust hood and reinstall dust hood knobs to
secure.
