MODEL W1683 20" PLANER INSTRUCTION MANUAL Phone: 1-360-734-3482 • On-Line Technical Support: [email protected] COPYRIGHT © April, 2002 BY WOODSTOCK INTERNATIONAL, INC. WARNING: NO PORTION OF THIS MANUAL MAY BE REPRODUCED IN ANY SHAPE OR FORM WITHOUT THE WRITTEN APPROVAL OF WOODSTOCK INTERNATIONAL, INC. Printed in Taiwan INSTRUCTION SHEET Model W1718 Spiral Cutterhead Planer INTRODUCTION The Model W1718 is the same planer as the Model W1683 with the upgrade of the spiral cutterhead. The spiral cutterhead consists of 96 indexable carbide inserts. Each insert has four cutting edges, which can be easily rotated if the current cutting edge becomes dull or damaged. In addition, a reference dot is in one corner of each insert face to indicate when that insert has been rotated. After all four edges have been used, the dot will be back to its original position and replacement of the insert will then be necessary. Note—To avoid confusion about which edges are sharp, always rotate inserts clockwise. Figure 1. Spiral cutterhead.

Childproof workshop with padlocks, master switches or by removing switch keys. 11. Disconnect machine when cleaning, adjusting or servicing. 12. Do not force tool. The machine will do a safer and better job at the rate for which it was designed. 4 13. Use correct tool. Do not force machine or attachment to do a job for which it was not designed. 14. Wear proper apparel. Do not wear loose clothing, neck ties, gloves, jewelry, etc. 15. Remove adjusting keys and wrenches before turning the machine on. Make this a habit! 16. Use proper extension cord. When using an extension cord, make sure it is in good condition. Use extension cords 100' or less in length that are rated Hard Service (grade S) or better, and that have a conductor size of 16 A.W.G. A drop in line voltage, loss of power and overheating can result when using an undersized cord. The extension cord must have a ground wire and ground plug pin, as well. 17. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. 18. Do not leave machine unattended—wait until it comes to a complete stop before leaving the area. 19. Perform machine maintenance and care. Follow lubrication and accessory attachment instructions in the manual. 20. Keep machine away from open flame. Operating machines near pilot lights and/or open flames creates a high risk if dust is dispersed in the area. Dust particles and an ignition source may cause an explosion. Do not operate the machine in high risk areas, including but not limited to, those mentioned above. 21. Do not use machine under the influence of drugs or alcohol or if you are excessively tired. 22. Do not let untrained people use the machine if they are not supervised by an experienced operator. 23. If at any time you are experiencing difficulties performing the intended operation, stop using the machine! Then contact our service department or ask a qualified expert how the operation should be performed. 24. Mag switches can be accidentally turned on when they are bumped. Always be aware of the mag switch location when moving items around the shop. Operating this equipment has the potential for flying debris to cause eye injury. Always wear safety glasses or goggles when operating equipment. Everyday glasses or reading glasses only have impact resistant lenses, they are not safety glasses. Be certain the safety glasses you wear meet the appropriate standards of the American National Standards Institute (ANSI). 5 ADDITIONAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR PLANERS 1. Always make sure the planer is on firm ground and is stable before operating. Immediately fix or shim the planer if it rocks or wobbles. 2. Always inspect the workpiece before running it through the planer. Stock with loose knots, nails, staples, dirt or other foreign objects should be rejected from use or corrected by eliminating the condition that makes it questionable. 3. Always make sure that all components of the planer are adjusted to their proper specifications before planing stock. 4. Always use the help of another person or some type of support fixture when planing long stock. 5. Never stand behind the workpiece when you are feeding it into the planer; the workpiece could possibly kick back and be thrown in the direction from which it came. 6. Never operate the planer if knives are dull or damaged. Sharp knives are safer and produce better final results. 7. Never process any material through the planer other than wood. This planer is designed for wood only! 8. Always take multiple light cuts rather than excessively deep cuts. 9. Never attempt to free a stalled workpiece while the planer is powered on and plugged in. 10. Absolutely never reach inside the planer or open the top cover while the planer is powered on and/or plugged in. 11. Never plane wood that is less than 7" long or less than 1⁄4" thick. 12. Always wear hearing protection when operating the planer. Read the manual completely before assembly and operation. Become familiar with the machine and its operation before beginning any work. Serious personal injury may result if safety or operational information is not understood or followed. No list of safety guidelines can be complete. Every shop environment is different. Always consider safety first, as it applies to your individual working conditions. Use this and other machinery with caution and respect. Failure to do so could result in serious personal injury, damage to equipment or poor work results. 6 ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS NOTICE 220V Operation NEVER replace the circuit breaker with one rated at a higher amperage or damage to the circuit may occur. The motor supplied with your new planer is rated at 5 H.P. and will draw approximately 28 amps during 220 volt operation. When choosing an outlet for this machine, we recommend using a NEMA L6-30A with a 30 amp circuit breaker or fuse. Keep in mind that a circuit being used by other machines or tools at the same time will add to the total load being applied to the circuit. Add up the load ratings of all machines on the circuit. If this number exceeds the rating of the circuit breaker, fuse or wires, use a different circuit. This equipment must be grounded. Verify that any existing electrical outlet and circuit you intend to plug into is actually grounded. Under no circumstances should the grounding pin from any three-pronged plug be removed. Serious injury may occur. Extension Cords We do not recommend using an extension cord for 220V equipment. Instead, arrange the placement of your machinery and installed wiring to eliminate the need for extension cords. If you must use an extension cord, make sure it is rated Hard Service (grade S) and capable of handling a 28 amp load. The extension cord must always contain a ground wire and plug pin. Be sure to ask an expert about the correct gauge to use with your desired cord length. Always repair or replace extension cords when they become worn or damaged. Grounding This machine must be grounded! See Figure 1. The electrical cord supplied with the Model W1683 does not come with a 220 volt plug. Use a plug with a ground pin. If your outlet does not accommodate a ground pin, have it replaced by a qualified electrician or have an appropriate adapter installed and grounded properly. An adapter with a grounding wire does not guarantee the machine will be grounded. A ground source must be verified. Figure 1. Typical 220V 3-prong plug and outlet. 7 ASSEMBLY The following is a description of the components shipped with the Shop Fox® W1683 20" Planer. Overview Should any parts be missing, examine the packaging carefully to be sure parts are not among the packing materials. If any key parts are missing, contact Woodstock International, Inc. at 360-734-3482 or by e-mail at: [email protected]. We have assembled most of your new planer for you at the factory; however, the parts shown in Figure 2 still need to be assembled after delivery. Please take your time and try to be as accurate as possible when following each step. This care will provide you with better results when you are finished. Box Contents Additional Tools Required: Besides the tools that were included with the planer, you will also need a Phillips® screwdriver, a flat-head screwdriver and a good straightedge. A set of feeler gauges and a dial indicator will also be necessary for the Adjustments section. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6.

Parts that need to be assembled. Do not connect the machine to power at this time. The machine must remain unplugged throughout the entire assembly process. Failure to do this may result in serious personal injury. 8 Shop Preparation • Floor Load: Your Model W1683 represents a large weight load in a small footprint. Most commercial floors are suitable for the planer. Some residential floors may require additional bracing to support both machine and operator. • Working Clearances: Consider existing and anticipated needs, size of material to be processed through each machine, and space for auxiliary stands, work tables or other machinery when establishing a location for your planer. • Cleaning Machine The table and other unpainted parts of the Model W1683 are coated with a waxy grease that protects them from corrosion during shipment. Clean this grease off with a solvent cleaner or citrus-based degreaser. Do not use chlorinebased solvents—if you happen to splash some onto a painted surface, you will ruin the finish. Do not use gasoline or other petroleum-based solvents. They have low flash points which make them extremely flammable. A risk of explosion and burning exists if these products are used. Serious personal injury may occur if this warning is ignored. Lighting and Outlets: Lighting should be bright enough to eliminate shadow and prevent eye strain. Electrical circuits should be dedicated or large enough to handle amperage requirements. Outlets should be located near each machine so power or extension cords are clear of high-traffic areas. Observe local electrical codes for proper installation of new lighting, outlets, or circuits. Do not smoke while using solvents. A risk of explosion or fire exists and may result in serious personal injury. The Model W1683 is a heavy machine, 840 lbs. shipping weight. Use power equipment. Serious personal injury may occur if safe moving methods are not followed. Many of the solvents commonly used to clean machinery can be toxic when inhaled or ingested. Always work in well-ventilated areas far from potential ignition sources when dealing with solvents. Use care when disposing of waste rags and towels to be sure they do not create fire or environmental hazards. Make your shop “child safe.” Ensure that your workplace is inaccessible to youngsters by closing and locking all entrances when you are away. Never allow visitors in your shop when assembling, adjusting or operating equipment. 9 Extension Rollers The extension roller assemblies are identical for both the infeed and the outfeed ends of the table. To mount these assemblies: 1. Attach an extension bar to the end of each roller. Secure these in place with the 12mm snap rings provided in the hardware bag. 2. Match the tapped holes on the side of the table to the extension bars. Lightly secure in place with the M10-1.5 x 25 hex bolts and washers from the hardware bag. Figure 3. Checking roller extension with a straightedge. 3. The end (outside) roller is fixed in place. Place a straightedge flat across the table and across the rollers as shown in Figure 3. Adjust the end roller so it is flush with the table, and tighten the M10-1.5 x 25 hex bolts to secure the extension bars in place. 4. The two inside rollers are mounted in slotted holes so they can be adjusted flush with the table and the end roller. Make these adjustments and tighten the bolts to secure the inside rollers in place. The top of the rollers should now be completely even with the top of the table. Double-check to make sure that the rollers did not move during the tightening process. 10 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. Figure 4. Handwheel attached correctly. 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. Figure 5. Dust hood attached to planer. 3. Attach a 5" dust hose to the dust port. 11 Switch The prewired magnetic switch needs to be mounted to the planer head casting. To mount the switch: 1. Match the holes at the back of the switch with the tapped holes in the front, lefthand corner of the planer. 2. Secure the switch to the head casting with the cap screws as shown in Figure 6. Figure 6. Attaching switch to the planer. 3. Read Section 2: Circuit Requirements in this manual, then install an appropriate plug to the power wire. DO NOT connect machine to the power at this time! Wait until all other assembly instructions and adjustments have been completed. Knife Setting Jig We have provided a jig to make the knife setting process easy and quick. Please refer to Figure 7 for jig component identification while assembling. Figure 7. Knife setting jig. To assemble the knife setting jig: 1. Snap one of the E-clips over the notch on one end of the knife setting rod. 2. Slide the aluminum knife setting jig brackets onto the rod. 3. Snap the other E-clip on the other end of the knife setting rod. Refer to page 17 for use. 12 ADJUSTMENTS Location of Controls Do not connect power to the machine while performing adjustments. Failure to follow this warning may result in serious personal injury. Take the time to familiarize yourself with the controls of your new planer. They will be frequently mentioned throughout the instructions in this manual, and the better you know your machine, the better you can make it perform. Figure 8 points out the key controls and their locations. As with all precision machinery, adjustments to the planer require very close tolerances. The adjustments described in this section will be factory set. However, during the life of the machine it will necessary to make these adjustments yourself. Many of these adjustments require the use of an indicating tool such as a dial indicator or a Rotacator® to achieve accurate results. Planer knives are dangerously sharp! Use extreme caution when working near cutting surfaces. Failure to exercise care while working near knives could result in severe injury.

Machine controls. 13 Moving Bed Rollers In order to perform table adjustments, the bed rollers must be adjusted below the surface of the table. To move the bed rollers: 1. Loosen the setscrews where the bed rollers mount to the planer body (on both ends) as shown in Figure 9. 2. Use a wrench to lower the rollers on their eccentric shafts. Figure 9. Bed roller setscrews. Leave the bed rollers in this position until instructed to adjust them at the end of this section. Table The most critical adjustments made on your new planer are dependent on the table being parallel to the cutterhead body. Because of this relationship, checking the table is the first step to setting up an accurate planer. There are two movements you should be concerned about when checking/adjusting the table—the table should be parallel to the head casting from front-to-back, and the table should be parallel with the cutterhead body from sideto-side. Side View Front View Figure 10. Gauge block. The table has been pre-set at the factory, but it is a good idea to check any machine thoroughly before use. To check the table: 1. Make sure machine is unplugged! 2. Make the gauge shown in Figure 10 out of a block of wood. 14 3. Place the block on one end of the table, directly under the cutterhead body. Raise the table up so the block only touches the cutterhead body (keep knives rotated out of the way for this step). 4. Without moving the table, slide the block of wood to the other end of the cutterhead. If the block of wood will not fit, or if the block is below the cutterhead body, measure this gap with a feeler gauge. If the difference is more than .002", then the table needs to be adjusted from left to right. 5. Place the block under the front of the head casting, to either side of the depth limiter tab. Raise the table up so the block barely touches the head casting as shown in Figure 11. Figure 11. Checking table/head casting in front. 6. Remove the block and place it between the middle-rear of the head casting and the table. If there is a gap or it will not fit under the head casting, measure the difference with a feeler gauge. If this measurement is more than .002", then the table needs to be adjusted from front to back. 7. There are two methods to adjust the table on the Model W1683. The first is for adjustments smaller than .016" and the second is for adjustments larger than .016". To adjust the table less than .016": Figure 12. Table mounting screws. 1. Use the table mounting screws shown in Figure 12. Loosen the screws and lift/lower the table until the table and the cutterhead body are parallel with each other and the table is parallel with the head casting from front to back. This may require some trial and error. 2. Adjust each column on both sides until the table is properly set. While adjusting the columns, tighten each screw after each step 15 to ensure accurate results. To adjust the table more than .016": 1. Remove the front cabinet cover. Idler Sprocket Bracket 2. On the underside of the table there is a chain drive and five sprockets as shown in Figure 13. The four sprockets in the corners control the movement of the table columns. The fifth sprocket is the idler sprocket that controls the chain tension. Loosen the two bolts on the idler sprocket bracket (as shown in Figure 13) to loosen the chain so that each sprocket can be rotated on its own. Make sure to hold the chain away from the sprocket while you adjust it. Figure 13. Underside of table. 3. Moving the sprockets clockwise lowers the table and moving them counter-clockwise raises the table. Each tooth on the corner sprockets equals .016" of vertical movement when the cogs are turned (see illustration in Figure 14). Make sure, as you adjust each sprocket, that you count the number of teeth that pass a fixed point. Sprocket Knowing how far you turned one sprocket will help you keep the other side consistent if you are adjusting two columns together. Figure 14. Understanding sprocket movement. 4. After you have the table adjusted to within .016" from front-to-back and from side-toside, tighten the chain so all of the slack is removed. Do not connect power to the machine while performing adjustments. Failure to follow this warning may result in serious personal injury. 5. Now follow the previous instructions for adjusting the table when it is less than .016" from its proper position. 16 Checking Knives The Model W1683 features a 4 knife cutterhead. These knives must be checked and adjusted after regular use. Adjusting the knives is also an important part of the maintenance process. Correctly positioned knives act as a reference point for adjusting the feed rollers, the chip breaker and the pressure bar. When checking/adjusting the knives, keep in mind that the knife edge should be as precise as possible at tolerances within .002" from one end to the other. Improperly adjusted knives may unbalance the cutterhead, reduce the sharpness of knife edges prematurely, shorten bearing life, and produce poor planing results. Figure 15. Cover removed from planer. To check the knives: These Points Must All Touch Evenly 1. Remove the upper cover as shown in Figure 15 so you have access to the top of the cutterhead. 2. Remove the V-belt cover from the left-hand side of the planer (facing front). 3. Using the V-belt to rotate the cutterhead, turn the cutterhead so one of the knives is accessible. 4. Place the knife setting jig on the cutterhead. Both feet should sit solidly on the cutterhead and the knife should barely touch the center of the jig as shown in Figure 16. Figure 16. Correct jig position on cutterhead. 5. If the knife does not contact the center of the jig, or if the knife contacts the center of the jig but both feet will not sit solidly on the cutterhead, then the knives will need to be adjusted. For quick and easy knife setup, consider purchasing a Planer Pal®. This handy tool allows you to quickly set the knives to within .001" from one end to the other. See “Aftermarket Accessories” at the end of the Operations section for more details. 17 Knife Adjustment The Model W1683 is equipped with both springs and jack screws for knife adjustment. These two options have been provided for operator preference. Both types have advantages and disadvantages. Springs allow adjustments to be made quickly, while jack screws are more accurate. The following instructions offer suggestions for both methods, followed by the procedures for tightening the gib bolts. Springs under the knives exert upward pressure while wedge-type gibs and gib bolts lock the knives in place. See Figure 17 for cutterhead assembly identification. Figure 17. Understanding cutterhead assembly. To adjust the knives using the springs: Jack Screws support the knives from underneath. By threading the jack screws in or out, you can precisely control the knife height. 1. Unplug the machine from the power source! To adjust the knives using the jack screws: 2. Lower the jack screws completely to get them out of the way. Loosen the gib bolts so the knife will move upward from the pressure of the springs. 3. Place the knife setting jig on the cutterhead so both feet sit solidly on the cutterhead and so that the center of the jig pushes down on the knife (similar to Figure 16). Make sure equal pressure is placed on both ends of the jig and that the jig is parallel with the cutterhead. 4. Tighten the knives by following “tightening” instructions on the next page. 1. Unplug the machine from the power source! 2. Loosen the gib bolts and remove the gib and knives. Remove all of the springs and place them in a plastic bag. Tape the bag to the inside of the cabinet so they do not get lost. 3. Place the knives, gibs, and gib bolts back in the cutterhead as they were before removal. Make sure the knives are resting on the jack screws when you install them. 4. Place the knife setting jig on the cutterhead so both feet sit solidly on the body of the cutterhead. If the knife does not allow the jig to sit on the cutterhead evenly, raise or lower the knife with the jack screws to adjust as needed. 5. Tighten the knives by following the “tightening” instructions on the next page. 18 To tighten the knives after adjustment: Do not connect power to the machine while performing adjustments. Failure to follow this warning may result in serious personal injury. 1 3 5 6 4 1. Snug the gib bolts on each end of the knife but do not completely tighten them. In this manner, work toward the center of the knife by alternating back-and-forth from each end of the knife. Figure 18 illustrates order of this sequence. Make sure you only snug the gib bolts enough to hold the knife in place. You will tighten them more later. 2. Rotate the cutterhead and repeat knife adjustments and step 1 tightening until you have performed these procedures on all of the knives. 2 3. When you come back to the knife you started with, check the height with the jig to make sure that it is still correct. If the bolt height is not correct, fix as necessary and re-snug the gib bolts; if the height is correct, snug each bolt down a little more in the same alternating procedure you used before, but do not tighten the bolts completely. Repeat again with each knife. Figure 18. Gib bolt tightening sequence. Wear heavy leather gloves when tightening gib bolts in case the wrench slips off and your hand hits the knife. Planer knives are dangerously sharp. If care is not taken around them, serious injury may occur. 4. When you return to the original knife, tighten all gibs completely in the same fashion, repeating on all knives. NOTICE Uneven tightening of the gib bolts may cause the cutterhead to become unbalanced, which will lead to premature wear and tear of the knives. 19 Feed Rollers, Chip Breaker & Pressure Bar The feed rollers, the chip breaker and the pressure bar are factory set for general planing. If you need to alter the settings or reset them after maintenance, these components can be adjusted at the same time, assuming that the knife height is set correctly. The standard setting for the infeed roller, the chipbreaker and the pressure bar is .004"-.008" below the cutterhead knife at bottom dead center. The outfeed roller should be set to .020" below the cutterhead knife at bottom dead center. Figure 19. Board position on table. To adjust the feed rollers, the chip breaker and the pressure bar: 1. Unplug the machine from the power source! 2. You will need two boards that are the same height and are long enough to span the entire length of the table. An easy way to get two boards of the same height is to rip one board down the middle. 3. Place each board across the entire length of the table, on each side of the table, similar to Figure 19. Figure 20. Bottom dead center. 4. Rotate the cutterhead with the V-belt pulley so one of the knives is at bottom dead center. Bottom dead center is the furthest point down that the knife reaches in its rotation. The black line underneath the cutterhead in Figure 20 represents bottom dead center. 5. Raise the table up until the boards barely touch the knife edge. 6. Lower the feed rollers onto the boards with the adjustment controls shown in Figure 21. Figure 21. Feed roller adjustment controls. 20 7. Lower the chipbreaker and the pressure bar onto the boards, using the adjustment controls shown in Figures 22 and 23. 8. Make sure that each of the adjustment controls for the feed rollers, the chipbreaker and the pressure bar are backed off enough so that they will allow the components to move below the current position on the board. 9. To accurately perform this adjustment, you will need a dial indicator (not included). Place the dial indicator near the Shop Fox name plate that is directly above the table. Figure 22. Chipbreaker adjustment controls. 10. Position the indicator plunger on the table and lower the table .004"-.008". The feed rollers, the chipbreaker and the pressure bar should all move freely with the table. If they do not, make sure that they are all resting evenly on the boards at this current position. 11. Lock the infeed roller, the chipbreaker and the pressure bar in place. They should now all be set between .004"-.008" below the knife edge when it is at bottom dead center. Figure 23. Pressure bar adjustment controls. 12. The outfeed roller should still be able to move with the table. Continue lowering the table another .012" (.008" + .012" =.020"). The outfeed roller should now be set to approximately .020" below the knife edge at bottom dead center. Lock the outfeed roller in place. For super accurate setup, consider purchasing a Rotacator®. This handy tool allows you to adjust the feed rollers, chipbreaker, and pressure bar to accuracy within .001" every time. See “Aftermarket Accessories” at the end of the Operations section for more details. 21 Chip Deflector The power should not be connected to the planer at this time! If it is, serious injury may occur. A chip deflector is mounted behind the cutterhead to keep wood chips from falling onto the outfeed roller. To adjust the chip deflector: 1. Loosen the chip deflector mounting bolts shown in Figure 24. 2. Make sure the deflector is angled toward the cutterhead. Position the edge of the deflector to approximately 1⁄16" from the knife edge. Rotate the cutterhead with the V-belt pulley and make sure there is enough clearance between all the knives and the chip deflector. 3. Re-tighten the mounting bolts and replace the top cover. Figure 24. Chip deflector mounting bolts. Anti-Kickback Pawls NOTICE The Model W1683 features anti-kickback pawls (shown in Figure 25) as an important safety feature. These safety devices allow the workpiece to enter the planer without affecting the proper operation, but are designed to stop the workpiece from coming back out of the entrance in the event of a kickback. If you use a dust collector, move the chip deflector slightly farther away from the knives to help remove chips better. The anti-kickback pawls should be frequently checked to ensure that they swing free and easy. Do not try to lubricate the pawls. Lubrication may cause dust to build-up, which will restrict movement. Proper operation of the anti-kickback pawls is essential to the safe operation of the planer. If they aren’t working properly, they will not protect you if a kickback occurs. Figure 25. Anti-kickback pawls. 22 Chain Tensioner The power should not be connected to the planer at this time! If it is, serious injury may occur. After setting the feed rollers, the chipbreaker and the pressure bar, the chain tensioner (shown in Figure 26) must be reset for the planer to operate properly. Incorrect chain tension may cause the feed rollers to jam or even cause the chain to break. To adjust the chain tensioner: 1. Remove the chain drive cover and the backing plate. 2. Place the block of wood described on page 14 under the right side of only the outfeed roller. Raise the table up so the block barely touches the outfeed roller. 3. Look at the current table height on the scale. Raise the table up 1mm, using the scale as a gauge. This will move the outfeed roller up approximately .040". Figure 26. Chain tensioner. 4. Loosen tensioner bracket screw, rotate the chain tensioner until the chain is tight, then secure the tensioner bracket screw to keep the tensioner in place. A D B C 5. Replace the backing plate and the chain drive cover. Spring Tension Roller spring tension keeps the roller pressure uniform as the workpiece moves through the planer. To adjust the roller spring tension: Figure 27. Roller spring tension adjustment screws. 1. Figure 27 shows the four spring adjustment screws. Adjust screws A, B & C so they protrude 1⁄8" above the head casting. NOTICE More adjustments may be necessary to the roller spring tension after the machine has been test run and is in safe working condition. See the Operations section for more details. 2. Adjust screw D so it protrudes 5⁄16" above the head casting. This extra height will compensate for the pressure of the chain during operation. 23 Table Rollers The table rollers should be set last so they stay out of the way during the other adjustments. The required height of the table rollers will vary depending on the type of stock you intend to plane. As a general rule, table roller height should be between .002" and .020" above the table (see Figure 28). However, some stock may have better results outside of these numbers. Often, a small amount of trial-and-error is required to find the best table roller height for any particular stock. Rough stock will plane better when the rollers are higher, and smooth stock will have less snipe when the rollers are lower. Figure 28. Table roller tolerances. To adjust the table roller height: 1. Place a good straightedge across the length of the table as shown in Figure 29. 2. Use a feeler gauge to measure the gap between the table surface and the straightedge, and adjust the table rollers as described on page 14 to reach the desired height. The gap between the straightedge and the table should be even all the way across the table. Table Rollers Figure 29. Measuring gap between straightedge and table with a feeler gauge. For quick and easy table roller setup, consider purchasing a Rotacator®. This handy tool allows you to watch the height of the table roller as you adjust it, giving you accuracy within .001" every time. See “Aftermarket Accessories” at the end of the Operations section for more details. 24 Operations Test Run Always wear safety glasses when operating this machine! Before turning the machine on for the first time, make sure you have read through the entire manual and have performed the instructions given in the Assembly and Adjustments sections. Once assembly and adjustments have been properly performed, the machine is ready to be connected to the power. Make sure there are no obvious safety hazards and any tools used to assemble/adjust the machine are properly cleared away. The table should be lowered enough to provide plenty of room for the safe operation of the feed rollers and the cutterhead. DO NOT investigate problems or adjust the planer while it is running or plugged into power! Press the START button. Make sure that you remain near the switch in case you have to press the STOP button in an emergency. Strange or unnatural noises should be investigated and corrected before operating the machine further. Feed Rate The feed rate is the speed that the rollers drive the workpiece through the planer. The Model W1683 features 18 and 23 F.P.M. feed rates. Figure 30. Feed rate knob. As a general rule, the faster feed rate will dimension lumber quicker but leave a rougher finish; the slower feed rate will have the opposite effect and leave a smoother finish. Often, a small amount of trial-and-error will be the best way to determine which setting is right for your particular application. To change the feed roller speed, locate the feed rate knob shown in Figure 30. The machine must be running in order to change speeds; however, you should NEVER be planing stock through the machine when you switch speeds. Start the planer and adjust the knob as illustrated in Figure 31. Figure 31. Feed rate knob positions. NOTICE DO NOT change speeds while planing or severe damage to gearbox will result! 25 Operational Tips • • Carefully inspect any lumber that you plan to run through the planer. Each board must have at least one flat surface to slide along the planer table. To create a flat surface, pass the stock over a jointer first. See Figure 32. Some defects such as moderate twisting, loose knots or severe cracks may make the stock unusable. Portion Removed With Jointer Only use clean stock. See Figure 33. Scrape off all glue from joined boards before planing. Remove all dirt, nails, staples, imbedded gravel, etc. from any lumber you plan on using. A hidden nail in a workpiece will instantly damage the sharp edges of the knives. This will cause unsatisfactory results in future operations. • Plane ONLY natural wood fiber. Never plane wood composites such as particle board, plywood or MDF. Never plane laminates, formica or other synthetic materials. • Surface wood in the same direction as the grain. Never feed end-cut or end-grained lumber into the planer. • Keep your work area clear. Always make sure that long workpieces are supported and have enough room to exit the planer. • When making multiple passes with long stock, use the top rollers to move material back to the infeed side of the planer. • Avoid planing wood with a high moisture content. Stock with more than 20% moisture, or stock that has been exposed to rain or snow, will plane poorly and cause unnecessary wear on the knives and motor. Excess moisture may also cause rust or corrosion problems. Figure 32. Face joint the concave side of cupped stock before planing. Figure 33. Only plane clean stock. 26 Troubleshooting Planing Results Wavy Surface — Usually caused by poor knife height adjustment. Appears when one knife is taking deeper cuts than the others. Can be fixed by resetting the knives to a tolerance within .001" from one end to the other. Planing results are affected by the species and condition of the wood, how the planer is setup, and the condition of the knives. The following characteristics are common problems woodworkers might have while planing. Note that one knife being slightly higher than the others will also result in that knife dulling at a faster rate, because it is doing more work. Chipped Grain — Frequently a result of planing against the grain. May also be caused by wood with knots or cross grain, dull knives or a misaligned chipbreaker. Chipped Grain can usually be avoided by slowing down the feed rate and by taking more shallow cuts. Inspect your lumber and determine if grain is causing the problem. Snipe — Where more material is removed from board ends than the middle of the board. This condition occurs with all planers to some degree. Usually exaggerated when one or both bed rollers are set too high, this condition can also be caused by the chipbreaker or the pressure bar being set too high. Adjustment of the above components should reduce snipe beyond notice. Fuzzy Grain — Commonly caused by surfacing lumber with too high of a moisture content. Fuzzy grain can also be caused by dull knives or an incorrect grinding bevel on the knives. Check stock with a moisture meter. Anything over 20% should be stickered and allowed to dry. Chatter Marks — Usually caused by incorrect chipbreaker and pressure bar settings. Can also be caused by running a narrow workpiece through the planer on the far left or right side of the cutterhead. Shows up in the form of a “washboard” look across the face of the freshly planed workpiece. Likely to be inconsistent in appearance. Glossy Surface — Most often caused by dull knives taking shallow cuts at a slow feed speed. The lumber usually gets scorched and blackens the surface of the stock; eventually damage to the knives will occur. If knives are sharp and a glossy surface still results, increase the feed speed or cutting depth. Chip Marks — Occur when chips are not properly expelled from the cutterhead. The chips get caught between the knives and the workpiece, hindering the ability of the knife to take an even cut. Chip marks usually appear as random and uneven. They can also be caused by exhaust blockage or too large of a gap between the chip deflector and the cutterhead. Using a dust collector with the planer will help this situation. Pitch & Glue Build-Up — Resin or glue build-up on the rollers and the cutterhead will cause over-heating by decreasing the cutting sharpness while increasing drag in the feed mechanism. Scorched lumber, as well as uneven knife marks and chatter, can result. 27 AFTERMARKET SETUP ACCESSORIES To make the setup process easier and more accurate, consider some of the aftermarket products available. Here are some basic aftermarket items you might want to consider: • • Rotacator® — A rotating dial indicator on a magnetic base. Shown in Figures 34 and 35, this handy device allows you to set your table within .001" from being parallel with the cutterhead. The Rotacator® is indispensable for adjusting the table rollers and is also great for precisely setting feed rollers, the chip breaker and the pressure bar. Figure 34. Measuring table-to-cutterhead with Rotacator® in upward position. Planer Pal® — Using powerful neodymium magnets, Planer Pal® (Figure 36) hold knives in place while freeing both hands to tighten the gib. Place one of these jigs on each end of the cutterhead, and you can set the knives in perfect alignment every time. Figure 35. Measuring table roller height with Rotacator® in downward position. Figure 36. Planer Pal® knife setting jig. 28 MAINTENANCE Cleaning Disconnect power to the machine when performing any maintenance or repairs. Failure to do this may result in serious personal injury. Frequently blow-off dust with compressed air. This is especially important for the internal working parts and motor. Dust build-up around the motor is a sure way to decrease its life span. Occasionally it will become necessary to clean the internal parts with more than compressed air. To do this, remove the covers and clean the internal parts with a citrus cleaner or mineral spirits and a stiff wire brush or steel wool. DO NOT USE WATER—WATER WILL RUST CAST IRON. Make sure the internal workings are dry before using the planer again. If any essential lubrication is removed during cleaning, relubricate those areas. Inspect your planer for loose nuts and bolts. Make sure that all tools are cleared away from the machine. Table And Base General The table can be kept rust-free with regular applications of products like Boeshield® T-9. For long term storage, you may want to consider products like Kleen Bore's Rust Guardit™. Regular periodic maintenance on your Model W1683 20" Planer will ensure its optimum performance. Make a habit of inspecting your planer each time you use it. Check for the following conditions and repair or replace when necessary: • • • • • Loose mounting bolts. Worn switch. Worn or damaged cords and plugs. Damaged V-belt. Any other condition that could hamper the safe operation of this machine. 29 Lubrication Since all bearings are sealed and permanently lubricated, leave them alone until they need to be replaced. Do not lubricate them. The Model W1683 does need lubrication in other places. • Columns and Lead Screws — Remove dust covers for access. Lubricate columns weekly with light oil, and lubricate the four lead screws once a month with general purpose grease. • Worm Gear — Inspect the worm gear monthly and lubricate when needed. The worm gear box will need to be removed to perform the inspection. See Figure 37. • Chain — Inspect the table height adjustment chain monthly and lubricate as needed. Use high quality chain lubricant for best results. • Gear Box — Drain the gear box after the first 20 hours of operation. Figure 38 shows the gear box drain and fill plugs. Refill with 80-90w gear oil. The oil level should reach the top of the filler plug port. After the initial change, inspect fluid levels periodically and change yearly. If your planer receives heavy use, change the gear oil more frequently. • Drive Chain — Inspect and lubricate the drive chain monthly. Check the sprockets, the chain, and the master links during inspection. Use a general purpose grease to lubricate the chain. • Feed Rollers — Lubricate feed rollers daily before start-up. Figure 39 shows the lubrication points for the feed rollers. These are screws that have holes drilled through them to allow oiling. Make sure that dust is not trapped in these screws and apply 2 drops of light oil in each to penetrate the bearings. Do not lubricate more than this or the excess will end up on the floor. Figure 37. Worm gear. Drain Plug Fill Plug Figure 38. Gear box drain and fill plugs. Figure 39. Bearing lubrication points. 30 Belt Tension Frequently inspect the V-belt tension during the first twenty hours of operation. During this period, the belts will stretch a little. To adjust belt tension, lower the motor slightly by loosening the lower check nuts shown in Figure 40. When belt tension is satisfactory, tighten the upper check nuts down onto the motor bracket to secure it. DO NOT over-tighten the check nuts—too much pressure at the wrong angle may break the motor mount casting ears. Figure 40. V-belt adjustment check nuts. Pulley Alignment The V-belt pulleys should be properly aligned with each other to prevent premature belt wear. Check the alignment with a good quality straightedge as shown in Figure 41. To align the pulleys: 1. Loosen the belt tension check nuts so the motor will freely move up and down. 2. Loosen, but do not remove, the 4 bolts that secure the motor to the motor mounting plate. Figure 41. Aligning V-belt pulleys. 3. Slide the motor as needed to align the pulleys. 4. When the pulleys are aligned, tighten the 4 motor mount bolts. 5. Tension the V-belts and replace the belt cover. 31 Wiring Diagram 5 HP Magnetic Switch -L.Z.
