3. using a straightedge as a guide, rotate set
screws until extension tables are in plane
with main table, then fully tighten hex bolts
installed during Step 1 on Page 19.
Note: Bed rollers will give you a false read-
ing with your straightedge if they are raised
above table. Move them down or work around
them when leveling extension wings (refer to
Bed Roller Height on Page 27 for details).
4. insert key into keyway on handwheel shaft on
top of planer.

Dust collection

this machine creates a lot of wood chips/
dust during operation. breathing airborne
dust on a regular basis can result in perma-
nent respiratory illness. Reduce your risk
by wearing a respirator and capturing the
dust with a dust-collection system.
Minimum cfM at Dust Port: 400 cfM
Do not confuse this CFM recommendation with
the rating of the dust collector. To determine the
CFM at the dust port, you must consider these
variables: (1) CFM rating of the dust collector,
(2) hose type and length between the dust col-
lector and the machine, (3) number of branches
or wyes, and (4) amount of other open lines
throughout the system. Explaining how to cal-
culate these variables is beyond the scope of
this manual. Consult an expert or purchase a
good dust-collection "how-to" book.
to connect the machine to a dust-collection sys-
tem, fit a 4" dust hose over the dust port, and
secure in place with a hose clamp (see figure 15).
tug the hose to make sure it does not come off.
Note: A tight fit is necessary for proper
performance.
