When correctly set, the carbide insert will just
touch the straightedge when the insert is at its
highest point of rotation (

—if your outfeed table is correctly set, no
adjustments are necessary.
—if the insert lifts the straightedge off the
table or the table is below the straight-
edge, adjust the outfeed table height with
the handwheel until the straightedge just
touches an insert at its highest point of
rotation.
19. lock the outfeed table, then reinstall the
fence.
20. install the cutterhead guard back over the
cutterhead, making sure that the spring ten-
sion in the guard is properly set so the guard
springs back over the cutterhead when it is
pulled back and released.
21. re-adjust the infeed table.
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. The insert
must be replaced when all four edges are dull.
installing or adjusting a carbide cutter:
1. DisConneCT joinTer FroM poWer!
2. remove any sawdust from the head of the
carbide insert Torx screw.
3. remove the Torx screw and carbide insert.
4. Clean all dust and dirt off the insert and the
cutterhead pocket from which the insert was
removed, and replace the insert so a fresh,
sharp edge is facing outward.
note: Proper cleaning is critical to achieving
a smooth finish. Dirt or dust trapped between
the insert and cutterhead will slightly raise the
insert, and make noticeable marks on your
workpieces the next time you cut.
5. lubricate the Torx screw threads with a
light machine oil, wipe the excess oil off the
threads, and torque the Torx screw to 48-50
inch/pounds.
note: Excess oil may squeeze between the
insert and cutterhead or in the screw hole,
thereby lifting the insert or screw slightly and
affecting workpiece finishes.

insert service
The Model T10125 6" cutterhead is equipped with
32 indexable carbide 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 clockwise 90˚ to reveal
a fresh cutting edge (
figure 11).
