8. Place planer knife lockbar (74) with
the planer knife (73) into the cutter-
block, making sure the knife does
not slip from the two pins of the
planer knife lockbar.
9. Turn the four hexagon head screws
in the planer knife lockbar out, until
lock bar (76) and knife (75) can still
just be moved along the axis of the
cutterblock.

10. There are two ways to check the
projection of the knives:
− With the setting gauge (77) (under
the prevailing regulations governing
safety at work this must be supplied
with the machine).
− Place planer knife setting gauge on
cutterblock as shown. The knives
must project so much that they
touch the setting gauge.
This check must be performed on
both planer knives and at both ends
of the cutterblock.
− Use an aluminium straightedge (78)
(this is more precise than using a
setting gauge).
− Place aluminium straightedge as
shown over outfeed table and cut-
terblock.

− Turn cutterblock by hand one turn
against the direction of feed.
− The planer knives are set correctly if
the straight edge is moved forward 4
to 6 mm by the turning cutterblock.
This check must be performed at
both ends of the cutterblock.
11. To set the knife projection, turn the
grub screws in the planer knife lock-
bar with a 3 mm Allen key as
required.
12. To tighten, turn the four hexagon
head screws of the planer knife lock-
bar fully out. To prevent distortion of
the planer knife lockbar start with
the screws in the centre, then
tighten the screws closer to the
edges.
A
Danger!
− Do not extend tool when tighten-
ing the screws.
− Do not tighten bolts by striking
the wrench.
13. Return cutterblock guard extrusion
to its starting position.

Feedgear Maintenance

1. Unplug power cable.
2. Unscrew the two cap nuts of the
drive cover and remove the drive
cover.
3. Remove chips and dust with dust
collector or brush.
4. Apply a light coat of care and main-
tenance spray to roller chain and
ENGLISH
shaft and axle bearings (do not use
oil!).
5. Replace drive cover and secure with
the two cap nuts.

Drive Belt Tensioning

1. Unplug power cable.
2. Unscrew cap nut of drive belt cover
and remove cover (80).
3. Check belt tension with thumb pres-
sure. The drive belt (79) should not
give more than 10 mm in the centre.
If the drive belt requires tensioning:
4. Loosen the four motor mounting
screws by approx. one turn.
79
81
5. Push motor down to tension belt.
6. When belt tension is correct tighten
motor mounting screws (81) cross-
wise.
7. If necessary, remove chips and dust
with dust collector or brush.
8. Put belt cover back on and secure
with cap nut.

Machine Care

1. Unplug power cable.
2. Remove chips and dust with dust
collector or brush from
− cutterblock;
− height-setting mechanism of cut-
terblock guard extrusion;
− thicknesser bed spindles;
− thicknesser feed drive.
3. Apply a light coat of care and main-
tenance spray to the following com-
ponents (do not use oil!):
