Feed Rollers

The infeed and outfeed rollers and chipbreaker
have been factory set. However, if spring
tension adjustment should ever be necessary,
use the appropriate adjustment assembly
located beneath the lip of the frame – one is
shown in Figure 13.

1. Loosen the nut and turn the screw in or out.

When finished, tighten nut.

2. Perform the same adjustment at the

opposite end of the roller.



Table Rollers

The table rollers can be raised or lowered with
the handle (Figure 14). A label is affixed near
the handle for reference.

Maintenance

Before any intervention on

the machine, disconnect it from the electrical
supply by pulling out the plug or switching
off the main switch! Follow lockout/tagout
procedures. Failure to comply may cause
serious injury.

The anti-kickback fingers must hang down freely
and operate independently by gravity. They
should be inspected frequently and cleaned
whenever necessary.

The table should be kept clean and free of rust
or deposits.

The lead screws and posts beneath the table,
and the drive chains, should be kept clean and
oiled.

Periodically blow out saw dust from the motor’s
cooling fan.
