SECTION 2: CIRCUIT REQUIREMENTS 110V Operation The motor supplied with the G1037 is a dual volt- age motor, prewired for 110V. Under normal use, the motor draws approximately 17 amps @ 110V, 8.5 @ 220V. We recommend using a 20 amp cir- cuit breaker or a 30 amp slow blow fuse for 110V or 220V operation.

The time you invest before you begin to use your Model G1037 will be time well spent. DO NOT operate this machine until you are com- pletely familiar with the contents of this manual.
Save the containers and all packing materials for possible inspection by the carrier or its agent. Otherwise filing a freight claim can be difficult. Caution: The G1037 is a heavy machine (ship- ping weight-240 lbs). DO NOT over-exert yourself while unpacking or moving your machine – get assistance.
Clean up The column and other unpainted parts of the Model G1037 are coated with a waxy oil that pro- tects them from corrosion during shipment. Remove the protective coating with mineral spir- its and paper towels. Do not use gasoline or other petroleum based solvents because of their extremely low flash points.
Please examine the edges of all die- cut metal parts before handling them. Figure 3. Overview of stand parts. G1037 Planer / Moulder Locate the four legs and the long upper and lower stand braces. The square mounting holes on either side of the legs are not the same.

Adjust accordingly on the infeed and outfeed side until the moulding knife and stock are lined up. When properly adjusted, firmly tighten the clamps securing the bed guides. G1037 Planer / Moulder Figure 10. Figure 11. Figure 12.
Now tighten the gibs in 4-5 stages to assure that the clamping pressures are evenly distributed through all the gibs. Do not over tighten the setscrews to prevent stripping the threads in the gibs. G1037 Planer / Moulder...

If noises occur that cannot be found by visual inspection, feel free to contact our service depart- ment for help. G1037 Planer / Moulder Thickness Planing Thickness planing is the sizing of material to a desired thickness, while creating a smooth sur- face parallel to the opposite side of the board.
Always feed the board in a direction that allows the planer knives to cut with the run-out of the grain. This aids the knife in severing the wood fibers rather than lifting and tearing the fibers.
4. Periodically check all the chains and sprock- ets for wear. When worn, replace as a set. G1037 Planer / Moulder Lubrication 1. The recommended lubrication for roller chains used in medium to slow speed operation is to simply wipe the chain clean.
