moves freely, and re-set the lock nuts on the
gib screws.
If table will still not line up:
Remove gib screws (A, Figure 20) and table
locking handle (B) and remove gib. Check gib to
see that set screws do not go all the way
through the gib or dimple the opposite side. If
either of these conditions exist, replace with a
new gib.
Also, check to be sure the ways are clean and
free of pitch and sawdust. Lubricate gib and way
with a good grade of non-hardening grease.
Re-install the gib, making certain that the punch
mark lines up with the locking screw holes. Re-
install gib screws. Repeat steps 3 through 6
above.
Adjusting Depth of Cut
Refer to Figure 21.
Depth of cut is determined by the height of the
infeed table relative to the cutterhead. Setting
the infeed table is achieved with both a rapid
adjust and a fine adjust.
Rapid Adjust:
1. Loosen the lock screw (A) and the locking
handle (B).
2. Raise or lower the height adjustment handle
(C) until the scale (D) reads just under the
correct depth of cut.
Fine Adjust:
3. Rotate the locking handle (B) until it is snug,
then fine-tune the adjustment by rotating the
height adjustment handle (C) until the scale
reads exact. (Clockwise raises the table,
counter-clockwise lowers the table.) A full
rotation of the fine adjustment handle equals
1/16" travel of the infeed table.
4. When set, re-tighten lock screw (A).
Periodically check the accuracy of the depth of
cut scale (D, Figure 21) by raising the infeed
table until it is flush with the peak of the
cutterhead arc (using a straight edge across
table and cutterhead). The scale should read
zero depth. If it does not, re-adjust the pointer
above the scale.
Infeed Table Depth Stop
The infeed table depth stop (A, Figure 22) limits
the cut to a maximum depth of 1/8”. For normal
operations, the depth of cut should never
exceed 1/8".
1. Lower the infeed table to 1/8", which will
cause the depth stop limiter to engage.
2. Pull out on the stop handle (B).
