 Use an aluminium straightedge (87)
(this is more precise than using a
setting gauge).
 Place aluminium straightedge as
shown over outfeed table and cutter-

 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.

tenance spray to the following com-
ponents (do not use oil!):
