Thicknesser adjustment (g. 30)

1 The rise and fall of the thicknesser table can be adjusted with the handwheel (1). One turn of this

hand wheel equals 4 mm.

2 After height setting the thicknesser table has to be locked with the lever (2) situated behind the

hand wheel, the height of the table can be read at the scale (3).

3 When, after intensive use of the locking lever (2), it is no longer possible to lock it, take off the nut

which holds the lever and remove the lever. Then turn the lever 1/6 turn clockwise and put it back

on again. Put the nut back on and tighten it again.

4 The table height cutting depth setting has to be adjusted in such a way that there is always 1 mm

minimum clearance between the top of the wood and the connection bar between the bearing

houses.

5 Always ensure that the anti-kickback protection ﬁngers are kept clean and hang down freely in

position under their own height.

6 The feeding mechanism can be engaged by unlocking the lever (4) and pulling it up. The feed

through speed is 7 m/min.

7 In case of overloading of the feeding mechanism the feed rollers must be disengaged

immediately by pushing down lever (4). Most likely the cutting depth setting is too big. Lower the

table ½ a turn with the hand wheel and start all over again.

Important

A smooth table surface is essential for good operation of the thicknesser. Therefore the table should be

cleaned and rubbed in with normal cheap whit paraffin wax regularly. A roller support should be used

when long work pieces have to be machined.
