− Turn cutterblock by hand one turn
against the direction of feed.
− The planer knives are set correctly if
the straight edge is moved forward 4
to 6 mm by the turning cutterblock.
This check must be performed at
both ends of the cutterblock.
11. To set the knife projection, turn the
grub screws in the planer knife lock-
bar with a 3 mm Allen key as
required.
12. To tighten, turn the four hexagon
head screws of the planer knife lock-
bar fully out. To prevent distortion of
the planer knife lockbar start with
the screws in the centre, then
tighten the screws closer to the
edges.
A
Danger!
− Do not extend tool when tighten-
ing the screws.
− Do not tighten bolts by striking
the wrench.
13. Return cutterblock guard extrusion
to its starting position.
