—if your outfeed table is correctly set, no
adjustments are necessary.
—if the insert lifts the straightedge off the
table or the insert is below the straightedge,
loosen the outfeed table lock and adjust the
outfeed table height with the handwheel
until the straightedge just touches an insert
at its highest point of rotation.
tip: some advanced woodworkers have found
that they can virtually eliminate snipe by set-
ting the outfeed table in the following manner:
repeat
steps 1-4 using a freshly exposed
insert. place two pencil marks on the straight-
edge
5 ⁄
32
" apart, and place the outward mark
on the edge of the outfeed table, as shown in
figure 3.
lower the outfeed table slightly so the insert
lifts the straightedge off the table. rotate the
cutterhead clockwise—the straightedge should
move
5 ⁄
32
" toward the infeed table and the
inward mark should be directly over the edge
of the outfeed table, as shown in
figure 4.
Continue adjusting the oufeed table until the
cutterhead moves the straightedge
5 ⁄
32
" toward
the infeed table.
5. lock the outfeed table, reinstall the cutterhead
guard, and close the rear access panel.

the cutterhead is equipped with 40 indexable car-
bide inserts. Each insert can be rotated to reveal
any one of its four cutting edges. therefore, if one
cutting edge becomes dull or damaged, simply
rotate it 90˚ to reveal a fresh cutting edge (
figure
5 ).

in addition, each insert has a reference dot on
one corner. as the insert is rotated, the reference
dot location can be used as an indicator of which
edges are used and which are new. When the
reference dot revolves back around to its starting
position, the insert should be replaced.
replacement carbide inserts should be included
with the cutterhead. if you need additional inserts,
