a very smooth, level finish across the top is required.
Three sets of two blocks each are required, with height
H=3", 211/,6 '' and 213/,6 ''.
FEED ROLLER
ADJUSTMENT
Refer to Figures 20, 21, and 28, pages 11 and 18.
The planer/molder feed rollers can be raised or lowered
as needed. The infeed and outfeed rollers are set _6"
below the cutterhead (not the blades) at the factory for
planing operation. The infeed and outfeed rollers have
to be set %6"below the cutterhead for molding opera-
tion using the pattern knives. Feed rollers must be
adjusted properly for smooth feeding of the workpiece.
NOTE: Never lower infeed and outfeed rollers beyond
%6"lower than the cutterhead. This will cause severe
stress on the gearbox and roller system.
To adjust feed roller height for molding:
•
Make two 3 x 11/2x 3W' blocks and mark them as
cutterhead blocks.
•
Make two 21_6 x 11/2x 3W' blocks and mark them as
molding blocks.
•
Make sure the blocks are made to the mentioned
size.
•
Turn handwheel and lower the table to allow cutter-
head blocks to slide freely between the table and the
cutterhead. Cutterhead may have to be turned by
hand to rotate blade out of the way.
•
Place the 3" portion of cutterhead blocks beneath
the cutterhead, one on each side. Adjust table height
so the cutterhead block just makes contact with the
cutterhead.
•
Do not raise or lower the table from now on until all
other adjustments are made.
•
Place the 21_16 '' portion of molding blocks beneath
the infeed roller, one on each side.
•
Loosen the large hex nuts ( See Figure 20 and
Figure 28, Key No. 25) on both sides of the infeed
roller using the wrench provided.

Using the same wrench, turn threaded bushing
(Figure 28, Key No. 27) clockwise until the infeed
roller just makes contact with the block.

•
Tighten large hex nut and repeat this process with
the other side of the infeed roller.
•
Move molding blocks beneath the outfeed roller and
repeat the process.
•
Make sure that the large hex nuts are tightened after
adjustment.
•
Remove the cutterhead blocks and molding blocks
and retain them for future use.
The feed rollers should be raised to their original posi-
tion when the molding operation is done and at all
times when planing.
To raise rollers to original position:
•
Make two 2_ '' x 11/2"x 31/2" blocks and mark them
as planing blocks.
•
Adjust the feed rollers height in the same manner as
for the molding using 21%_ '' portion of the blocks.
•
Retain the blocks after adjustment for future use.
AUXILIARY
TABLE
Some of the cutting bits and pattern knives are designed
to cut all of the way through the workpiece and 'A_"
beyond the workpiece.
This produces a smooth edge and final sioing of the
workpiece. When using these bits or knives, an auxiliary
wood table must be mounted on the cast iron table to
prevent damage to the table and the bits or knives. The
cast iron table is provided with holes to accommodate
an auxiliary table.
The auxiliary table should be made from smooth 3_,,
particle board (12%" wide and 31 W' long) to provide a
smooth surface for the workpiece to slide on.
NOTE: Auxiliary table is 12" longer than the cast iron
table to allow 6" overhang in the front and rear for long
workpieces.
The particle board must be mounted on the cast iron
table with four 3/8 x 1" flat head screws, washers and
nuts (not included). Be sure to countersink the mount-
ing holes on the auxiliary table for the flat head screws.
The screws must be positioned below the surface of the
auxiliary table to prevent damage to the workpiece.
