  • Page 14: General Operating Instructions

    General Operating Instructions 1. Make sure all handles on the stock feeder and the feeder mounting assembly are tight before operating. 2. The stock feeder should be used in conjunction with a fence on your auxiliary machine. The fence should be securely fixed.
  • Page 15: When Used With A Table Saw

    2. To ensure that the workpiece is held firmly against the fence, set the stock feeder at a slight angle toward the fence in the direction of feed. In other words, the outfeed roller should be approximately 3/16” (5mm) closer to the fence than the infeed roller.
  • Page 16: Roller Removal/Replacement

    2. Some woodworkers prefer to place the feeder so that all rollers are over the outfeed table, as shown in Figure 22. The infeed roller should be approximately 3/16” away from the lip of the outfeed table at the cutterhead area. 3.
  • Page 17: Lubrication

    NOTE: These cones are subject to high torque and it may be necessary to periodically re- tighten the handle until the cone surfaces become securely seated. Exposed metal areas, such as the column and the over arm, should be kept clean and free of rust.
