Before assembling, read the manual thoroughly, familiarizing yourself with correct assembly and maintenance procedures and proper safety precautions.
INSTALLATION and ASSEMBLY WARNING: FOR YOUR OWN SAFETY, DO NOT CONNECT THE MACHINE TO THE POWER SOURCE UNTIL THE MACHINE IS COMPLETELY ASSEMBLED AND YOU READ AND UNDERSTAND THE ENTIRE INSTRUCTION MANUAL. IMPORTANT: Consider the following when looking for a suitable location to place the machine: •...
ELECTRICAL CAUTION: HAVE ELECTRICAL UTILITIES CONNECTED TO MACHINE BY A CERTIFIED ELECTRICIAN! Check if the available power supply is the same as listed on the machine nameplate. WARNING: Make sure the grounding wire (green) is properly connected to avoid electric shock. DO NOT switch the position of the green grounding wire if any electrical plug wires are switched during hookup.
• Check with a qualified electrician or service personnel if the grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if in doubt as to whether the tool is properly grounded. • Use only 3-wire extension cords that have grounding type plugs and receptacles that accept the tool’s plug.
ASSEMBLE MOTOR PULLEY and MOTOR AND BELTS. 1. Assemble motor pulley (H) to motor shaft. Make sure key is inserted into keyway of motor shaft and motor pulley, and tighten the pulley lock screw (J) and two screws in motor pulley, using allen wrench. 2.
DEPTH OF CUT ADJUSTMENT The depth of cut on your planer is controlled by raising or lowering the head assembly (A), which contains the cutterhead and feed rolls. The head assembly (A) raises and lowers on four precision ground steel columns.
FEED ROLL SPEED CONTROL This machine is equipped with a spiral, serrated infeed roll and a smooth outfeed roll. When the feed rolls are engaged, they turn and feed the stock. The feed rolls show automatically when the machine is under heavy load for best planing under all conditions. The feed rolls are driven by a chain and sprocket drive, which takes power directly from the cutterhead through the oil bath gear box.
Adjusting Belt Tension 1. Disconnect and lockout power to the machine. 2. Remove belt and pulley cover from the machine. 3. Place a board under the motor plate as shown. 4. Loosen two bolts (B), and pry up on the motor plate until correct belt tension is obtained.
CHECKING and ADJUSTING KNIVES 1. Disconnect and lockout power to the machine. 2. Remove four screws (A), (three visible), and remove top cover (B). Note : The knife screw hold the knives in position by expanding into the cutterhead slot so that the head of the screw is tight against the slot wall.
REPLACING KNIVES 1. Disconnect and lockout power to the machine. 2. Remove four screws (A), (three visible), and remove top cover (B). Note : The knife screw hold the knives in position by expanding into the cutterhead slot so that the head of the screw is tight against the slot wall.
IMPORTANT: At this time, only tighten the knife into the slot just enough to hold knife into position. 12. Replace and reset the other two knives in the same manner. 13. After all three knives are set with screws just snug, back out and tighten the five screws (D), against the slot starting with the end screws first then the center screws until the knife is securely held in the cutterhead.
ADJUSTING HEIGHT OF OUTFEED ROLL The outfeed roll is adjusted at the factory to be set 1mm below the cutting circle. To check and adjust the outfeed roll, proceed as follows: 1. Disconnect and lockout power to the machine. 2. Make sure the knives are adjusted properly. See “CHECKING and ADJUSTING KNIVES”.
ADJUSTING CHIPBREAKER The chipbreaker is located on top of the planer and extends down around the front of the cutterhead. The chipbreaker raises as stock is fed through and "breaks or curls" the chips the same as a plane iron cap on a hand plane. The bottom of the chipbreaker must be parallel to the knives and set 1 mm below the cutting circle.
ADJUSTING TABLE ROLLS This planer is supplied with two table rolls (A) which aid in feeding the stock by reducing friction and rotate as the stock is fed through the planer. It is not possible to give exact dimensions on the proper height setting of the table rolls because each type of wood behaves differently.
MAINTENANCE WARNING: Make sure the electrical disconnect is OFF before working on the machine. Maintenance should be performed on a regular basis by qualified personnel. Always follow proper safety precautions when working on or around any machinery. Maintenance on your planer should be done at periodic intervals to ensure that the machine is in good working order.
Parts Lubrication Required Position Grease Worm Gear Gear Box Chain Chain Chain Bracket Lead Screw Column Clean & Oil • Worm Gear is used to adjust the table up or down. (Fig. 29) • The oil in Gear Box must be changed after 2500 hours of work.
Change Lubricant When lubrication needs to be changed: 1. UNPLUG OR DISCONNECT PLANER FROM POWER SOURCE AND LOCK OUT POWER. 2. Remove the gear box and chain drive cover. 3. Place a suitable container under the drain plug (A). 4. Remove the drain plug (A) and allow the old lubrication to fully drain.
