Model g1033X (Mfg. since 4/12)

To adjust the height of the infeed and outfeed

rollers, chip breaker and pressure bar using

wood blocks and a feeler gauge:

1. Build the wood blocks by cutting a strAight

6' long 2x4 in half.

Note: Having the wood blocks at an even
height is critical to the accuracy of your over-
all adjustments. For best results, remove
board warpage by squaring the 2x4 with a
jointer and table saw before cutting in half.

the table, and place the other wood block
along the right side of the table, as illustrated

5. remove the dust port, top cover, and belt

cover.

6. Adjust the table and use the feeler gauge until

you have a 0.040" gap between the edge of
a carbide insert at bottom dead center (find
by rocking cutterhead pulley) and the wood
blocks.

7. lock the table height in place, as the wood

blocks will now be your reference points for
the rest of the adjustments.

8. loosen the infeed roller adjustment jam nuts

(

figure 32) and turn the adjustment set

screws on each end to raise the feed roller
above the wood block (if necessary), then
bring it back down so it just touches the wood
block on both sides.

9. lock the infeed roller adjustment set screws

in place with the jam nuts, making sure they
do not move while tightening.

10. Without moving the table, adjust the chip

breaker (

figure 34), pressure bar (figure

33), and outfeed roller (figure 32) in the
same manner, using the wood blocks as your
reference point.

11. When you are finished with the adjustments,

replace the top cover, dust port, and belt
cover.
