20” PLANER Thank you for choosing this planer. This unit is carefully tested and inspected before shipment and if properly used and maintained, will provide you with 1 year of reliable service. To ensure optimum performance and trouble free operation a reasonable amount of care and attention is required.
ASSEMBLY EXTENSION TABLE Ask another person provide assistance to hole on the extension table. To lock up screws into the holes (Fig. 4) then place straight edge through machine let it lies across both table and extension table (Fig.5). If they are not aligned, loosen screws and adjust them until they are aligned then tighten all of screws.

PARTS LUBRICATION REQUIRED POSITION GREASE OIL WORM GEAR GEAR BOX CHAIN CHAIN CHAIN BRACKET LEAD SCREW COLUMN CLEAN & OIL Fig. 10 Fig. 8 - Worm Gear is used to adjust the table up or down. (Fig. 9) - The oil in Gear Box must be changed after 2500 hours of work.
CONTROL THE DEPTH OF CUTTING The cutting depth scale is a combination of inch / metric scale, the cutting range is from 0 to 8" (204 mm). The distance between upward or downward of driving handle is 0.059" (1.5mm) one complete turn. Before adjusting the table upward, or downward;...

FEED ROLL SPEED RATE The rate of speed is transmitted by shift gears located in gear box. The shift gear handle (Fig.19) performs with three different methods of speed by using the shift handle to pull or push. Fig.20 Position A: feed roll is functioning on 20-FPM speed rate.

ADJUSTMENT TRANSMITTING ROLLER Verify that roller and table are both at the same height. (Fig.24) ADJUSTING TABLE ROLLER To reduce friction between stock and table, two table roller have been assembled on machine. Adjustments will be needed when planning with the different types of wood.
ASSEMBLING CHAIN If head casting is not parallel to table, tilt planer on it’s side. Remove bolt C and loosen bolt (D) (Fig.27). This will enable you to move the idler sprocket assembly (E) this procedure will release the tension of the chain. Remove chain from sprocket on the end that must be adjusted.

ADJUSTING INFEED AND OUTFEED ROLLER Before starting with the adjustment, you must check the position of the cutting head. You will need; 1. Thickness gauge 0.5m/m 2. Home made gauge block - First turn the wheel handle to make table upward. - Use hand to turn cutting head left and right, to make blade contact with the gauge block.

CHECKING OUTFEED ROLLER 1. Place gauge block under outfeed roller. ( Fig.34) 2. Loosen nut no.(3) and screw no.(4), this will allow for the outfeed roller to move upwards, or downwards. 3. Make the roller touch the top of gauge block. 4.

CHECK HEIGHT OF CHIPBREAKER When adjusting the chipbreaker, the correct position of wooden gauge and 0.1m/m thickness gauge must be, as shown in (Fig.37). Adjust process of screw and nut as shown in (Fig. 38). Fig. 37 Adjustments 1. Place wooden gauge and thickness gauge as shown in (Fig.37) 2.
DIGITAL READOUT The digital scale equipped with 20” planer can serve many applications, however for wood planning we need only concern ourselves with the ON/OFF, SET, and mm/in buttons. When set properly the digital readout will display the thickness of the finished product. Calibration: In order to calibrate the unit first run a board through the planer and measure the finished thickness with a set of vernier calipers.
