MAKE SURE THE MACHINE HAS BEEN TURNED OFF AND UNPLUGGED FROM THE POWER SOURCE BEFORE PERFORM-
ING ANY MAINTENANCE OR ADJUSTMENTS.
The pre-set depth gauge is adjusted at the factory, but in some rare cases it may eventually be necessary to re-
adjust, for example after an important maintenance. Any misalignment can be fixed as follows:
1.
Set the pre-set depth stop to the maximum value
1 3/4".
3.
Measure the thickness of the board. If the thickness
of the board does not match the value indicated
by the pre-set depth stop, go to the next step.
5.
Loosen the jam nut D.
6.
Turn the stop E a 1/4" turn in the required direction
in order to re-adjust the stop and retighten the jam
nut D.
Note: Lower the stop nut E if the board is thicker than the
pre-set value. Raise the stop E if the board is thinner than
the pre-set value.
7.
Set the depth stop to the next smaller thickness
1 1/2", then plane the board until the cutter head
can not be lowered.
8.
Measure the thickness of the board to verify that it
matches the pre-set value. If needed, repeat opera-
tions 5 to 8 until the stop is adjusted correctly.
9.
Once the adjustment is finished, re-install the cover,
then re-install the selector.
2.
Plane a board thicker than the pre-set depth stop
value until the stop prevents you from lowering the
cutter head.
4.
Pull back the stop selector to remove it. Remove
the screw C with the supplied Allen key, then put
a finger in the opening and pull back the cover to
remove it.
