4. Move gage block (B) Fig. 39, directly under chipbreakers
(A) as shown. The bottom of chipbreakers (A) Fig. 39, should
just touch gage block (B).
5. If an adjustment to the chipbreakers is necessary,
loosen two hex nuts (E) Fig. 37, and turn adjustment
screws (F) until chipbreakers (A) touch gage block (B) at
both sides of the table.
ADJUSTING PRESSURE BAR
The pressure bar is located directly behind the cutterhead
and rides on the planed surface of the stock, pressing the
stock downward on the table. The pressure bar must be
parallel to the knives and tangent to the table and set .010
below the cutting circle. To check and adjust the pressure
bar, proceed as follows:
1. MAKE CERTAIN THE MACHINE IS DISCONNECT-
ED FROM THE POWER SOURCE.
2. Make certain the knives are adjusted properly as
explained in the section "CHECKING, ADJUSTING AND
REPLACING KNIVES."
3. Place gage block (B) Fig. 40, on the table surface and
directly under the cutterhead as shown. Using a .010 feel-
er gage (C) Fig. 40, placed on top of the gage block, raise
the table until cutterhead knife (D) touches the feeler gage
when the knife is at its lowest point. DO NOT MOVE THE
TABLE ANY FURTHER UNTIL THE ADJUSTMENT HAS
BEEN COMPLETED.
4. Move gage block (B) Fig. 41, under pressure bar (D) as
shown. The bottom of pressure bar (D) Fig. 41, should just
touch the top of gage block (B). Check the opposite end
of the pressure bar in the same manner.
5. If an adjustment to the height of the pressure bar is
necessary, loosen lock nut (E) Fig. 42, and turn adjustment
screw (F) until the bottom of pressure bar (D) Fig. 41, just
touches top of gage block (B). Repeat the adjustment at
the other end of the pressure bar in the same manner.
