N(/() Fne\i j DXelXc D]^% j`eZ\ *&'0 =\\[ Ifcc\i ?\`^_k Xe[ Jgi`e^ K\ej`fe After switching between planing and molding operations, you must re-adjust the feed roller height and spring tension. Feed roller height and spring tension keeps the workpiece feeding into the planer/moulder without chatter or slipping. Rollers that are too high, or spring tension that is too light, can cause the workpiece to chatter and slip.
N(/() Fne\i j DXelXc D]^% j`eZ\ *&'0 —If a certain moulding knife profile does not allow you to adjust the outfeed roller down far enough for proper roller traction, the eccentric stop must be repositioned to the lower hole. To do this, remove the jam nut (Figure 28), reposition the eccentric stop (Figure 29) in the lower hole, and finger tighten the jam nut. Next rotate the eccentric stop to lower or raise the roller and retighten the jam nut. Jam Nut Lower Hole =`^li\ 28. Feed roller stop adjustment.
N(/() Fne\i j DXelXc D]^% j`eZ\ *&'0 Nfibg`\Z\ @ejg\Zk`fe Before using this planer/moulder, inspect each and every workpiece for the following problems, and be familiar with the hardness of the wood workpiece. Each workpiece must have at least one flat surface to slide along the planer/moulder table. To create a flat surface, pass the workpiece over a jointer (=`^li\ 31). Defects such as twisting, loose knots or severe cracks may make the stock unusable.
N(/() Fne\i j DXelXc D]^% j`eZ\ *&'0 GcXe`e^ ;f j Xe[ ;fe kj There are some common planing mistakes that must be avoided when planing. CORRECT Dlck`gc\ 9fXi[ ?XqXi[ Only plane one board at a time (Figure 33). Whether you use guide rails or not, never attempt to plane more than one board at a time side-by-side. If one board is slightly lower that the other, the feed roller will only hold the highest board, while the lower board will be free to slip when the knife contacts it.
N(/() Fne\i j DXelXc D]^% j`eZ\ *&'0 GcXe`e^ Fg\iXk`fe The maximum cutting depth for soft wood at full cutterhead width is no more than 1⁄8" deep. The harder the wood, the shallower the cutting depth and the slower the feed rate should be. A series of light passes typically results in a smoother finish with less snipe. AVOIDING KICKBACK! The basic steps of operating the machine as a planer are as follows: • Always stand to one side of the machine. (.
N(/() Fne\i j DXelXc D]^% j`eZ\ *&'0 Dflc[`e^ ;f j Xe[ ;fe kj The Model W1812 will accommodate most moulding knife profiles. However, you still must pay special attention to workpiece support and knife-to-table clearance. Refer to the following examples to avoid common workpiece setup mistakes.
N(/() Fne\i j DXelXc D]^% j`eZ\ *&'0 :ifne Dflc[`e^ Jlggfik When cutting crown moulding (Figure 37), make a wooden V-track that can be clamped to the table. The V-track must support at least 50% of the workpiece height on both sides. CORRECT Do not use the guide rails that came with your machine for crown moulding support. If you do, the workpiece can dislodge and be ejected from the machine, causing severe injury or damage.
N(/() Fne\i j DXelXc D]^% j`eZ\ *&'0 J`q\ Nfibg`\Z\ 8ggifgi`Xk\cp Make sure to cut your workpiece to the correct width for the knife being used (Figure 39). To improve knife life and workpiece results when cutting in very hard woods, use a table saw to rabbet out some of the profile before running the workpiece into the planer/moulder. CORRECT Never cut into moulding that is wider than the knife. Otherwise, the knife will overheat, burn the wood, and dull rapidly.
N(/() Fne\i j DXelXc D]^% j`eZ\ *&'0 <[^\ Dflc[`e^ KXcc Nfibg`\Z\j When cutting edge profiles on workpieces that are taller than they are wide, you must clamp wooden extension rails to the table so they support at least 75% of the workpiece height on both sides (Figure 41). Never attempt to use the low profile metal guide rails that came with this machine if they do not adequately support the workpiece, such as with tall workpieces.
N(/() Fne\i j DXelXc D]^% j`eZ\ *&'0 Dflc[`e^ Fg\iXk`fe The maximum depth for a moulding cut in soft wood is 3 ⁄4" deep.
