1. Infeed and outfeed tables must be coplanar. 2. Knives or knife inserts must be set in the cutterhead so that the highest point of their arc is level with the outfeed table. 3. On the standard cutterhead, knives must be parallel with the outfeed table across the entire length of the knives.

E) as far as it will go, or remove it from the machine entirely. 4. otate the cutterhead to avoid knife interference. 5. Place a straight edge (D) across the front of the outfeed table (F) and extending over the infeed table (G). Note the position of the infeed table (G). Note the position of the straight edge in Figure 6 with respect to the fence (H).

1. Disconnect machine from the power source. 2. emove the cutterhead guard (B, Fig. 8). eferring The knife inserts on the model TJ-X300C are four-sided. When dull, simply to Figures 11 and 12: remove each insert, rotate it 90° for a fresh edge, and re-install it. Use the provided star point Torx screwdriver to remove the knife insert screw.

Place the power feed handle (J) in the down (off/disengaged) position, which provides belt slack for the next step. 8. emove the feed-roller belt (G) from around the feed-roller pulley (K) and motor pulley (M). 9. Loop the new belt around the smaller (inner) motor pulley (M) and feed-roller pulley (K).
5. ith the handwheel (G), gently raise the table (C) until the gauge block (B) makes slight contact with the tip of the knife blade, then lock the table. 6. Move the gauge block (B) to opposite end of table (E). If the distance from the table to tip of the knife blade is the same at both ends, the table is parallel to the cutterhead.

eferring to Figure 16: At the start of the cut, the left hand holds the workpiece firmly against the infeed table and fence while the right hand pushes the workpiece in a smooth, even motion toward the cutterhead. After the cut is under way, the new surface rests firmly on the outfeed table.
2. Inspect stock for soundness and grain direction (refer to Direction of Grain on previous page). 3. et the infeed table for a cut of approximately1.5mm. 4. If the board is bowed (curved), place the concave edge down on the infeed table. 5.

a level surface has been created, flip the lumber and create parallel sides. Plane alternate sides until the desired thickness is obtained. hen half of the total cut has been taken from each side, the board will have a uniform, moisture content and additional drying will not cause it to warp.
4. est the board end on the infeed roller plate and direct the board into the planer. 5. lide the workpiece into the infeed side of the planer until the infeed roller begins to advance the workpiece. 6. Let go of the workpiece and allow the automatic feed to advance the workpiece. 7.
3. o protect the infeed table from scratches, partially cover the sharpening stone with paper (Figure 22). 4. Lay the stone on the infeed table. 5. Lower the infeed table and turn the cutterhead by turning the cutterhead pulley. he infeed table height is set properly when the stone's surface is flush with the knife bevel.
