Handwheel

The handwheel operates the chain driven system
that raises/lowers the table to control the
cutting depth.

To mount the handwheel:

1.

Secure the handwheel to the worm gear
shaft (as shown in Figure 4) with the hex
nut and washer that is already on the
threads.

2.

Thread the handle into the handwheel and
tighten the hex nut to keep it locked in
place.

Dust Hood

The dust hood included should only be installed
if you plan on hooking your planer up to a dust
collection system.

To install the dust hood:

1.

Match the holes in the dust hood to the
tapped holes in the planer casting on the
outfeed end.

2.

Secure the dust hood with the (6) M6-1.0 x
12 hex bolts from the hardware bag, as
shown in Figure 5.

3.

Attach a 5" dust hose to the dust port.
