Additional Safety Instructions for Planers

READ and understand this entire instruction manual before using this machine.

Serious personal injury may occur if safety and operational information is not understood and followed. DO NOT risk your safety by not reading!

USE this and other machinery with caution and respect, and always consider safety first, as it applies to your individual working conditions. Remember, no list of safety guidelines can be complete, and every shop environment is different. Failure to follow guidelines can result in serious personal injury, damage to equipment or poor work results.

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. Never reach inside the planer or open the top cover while the planer is plugged in.

11. Never plane wood that is less than 8" long or less than 1 ⁄

4

" thick.

12. Always wear hearing protection when operating the planer.

6

ELECTRICAL

220V Operation

The motor supplied with your new planer is rated at 3 HP and will draw approximately 12 amps during 220 volt operation. When choosing an outlet for this machine, we recommend using a NEMA L6-15 plug and receptacle with a 15 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.

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 Standard Service (grade S) and capable of handling a 15 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.

NOTICE

NEVER replace the circuit breaker with one rated at a higher amperage or damage to the circuit may occur.

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.

Grounding

This machine must be grounded! See Figure 1.

The electrical cord supplied with the Model

W1692 15" Planer 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.

Shop Preparation

Floor Load: Your Model W1692 15" Planer 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.

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 hightraffic areas. Observe local electrical codes for proper installation of new lighting, outlets, or circuits.

USE power lifting equipment, at 545 lbs.

the Model W1692 15"

Planer is a heavy load.

Serious personal injury may occur if safe moving methods are not followed.

Cleaning Planer

The table and other unpainted parts of your planer 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.

NEVER use gasoline or other petroleum-based solvents to clean with.

Most 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!

NEVER smoke while using solvents. A risk of explosion or fire exists and may result in serious personal injury.

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 untrained visitors in your shop when assembling, adjusting or operating equipment.

ALWAYS work in wellventilated areas far from possible ignition sources when using solvents to clean machinery. Many solvents are toxic when inhaled or ingested. Use care when disposing of waste rags and towels to be sure they do not create fire or environmental hazards.

9

Extension Rollers

The extension roller assemblies are identical for both the infeed and the outfeed ends of the table. Depending on the length of the workpiece, to help minimize snipe, you may have to adjust the extension rollers periodically so they are approximately 0.030" above the table.

To mount the extension rollers, do these steps:

1.

Loosen the setscrews where the table rollers mount to the planer body (on both ends) as shown in Figure 3.

2.

Use a wrench to lower the rollers on their eccentric shafts

3.

Position the extension roller assemblies on the planer table, and install the M8-1.25 x

20 mounting bolts and washers finger tight.

See Figure 3.

4.

Place a straightedge across the table and across the rollers as shown in Figure 4.

5.

Turn the adjustment setscrews (See Figure

5.) so the extension roller assemblies are flush with the table surface as indicated by the straightedge.

6.

Tighten the mounting bolts to secure the extension bar in place. See Figure 5.

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.

Do not adjust the table rollers you previously retracted into the planer table, because the final set of adjustments will be explained in the ADJUSTMENTS section.

ADJUSTMENTS

Planer Overview

Take the time to familiarize yourself with the controls of your new planer. They will be frequently mentioned throughout this instruction manual. The better you know your machine, the better you can make it perform.

Figure 10 points out your planer controls and features.

As with all precision machinery, adjustments to the planer require very close tolerances. The adjustments described in this section have a basic factory setting. However, due to storage and shipping, it is necessary for you to finetune these adjustments in the same order as presented in this manual, or your planing results will be compromised. To achieve exact results, use a dial indicator or a Rotacator ®

(refer to Planer Accessories on pages 34 and

35). Once you set up the planer correctly, you will enjoy stable machine settings and excellent planing results for a long time.

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 dimensions you should be concerned about when checking/aligning 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 side-to-side.

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 alignment, do these steps:

1.

UNPLUG THE PLANER!

2.

If you have not already done so, loosen the setscrews where the table rollers mount to the planer body (on both ends) as shown in

Figure 11.

3.

Use a wrench to lower the rollers on their eccentric shafts. Leave the table rollers in this position until instructed to adjust them at the end of this section.

4.

Make the gauge shown in Figure 12 out of a block of wood.

5.

Place the block on one end of the table, directly under the cutterhead body.

6.

Raise the table up so the block only touches the cutterhead body (keep knives rotated out of the way for this step).

7.

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

0.002", then the table needs to be adjusted from left to right.

8.

Place the block under the front of the head casting to either side of the stop. See

Figure 13.

Figure 13. Checking table/head casting in front.

9.

Raise the table up so the block barely touches the head casting as shown in

Figure 13.

10. 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 0.002", then the table needs to be adjusted from front to back.

11. There are two methods to adjust the table on your planer. The first is for adjustments smaller than 0.016" and the second is for adjustments larger than 0.016".

To adjust the table less than 0.016", do these steps:

1.

Loosen the table mounting 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.

NOTE: This adjustment may require some trial and error. See Figure 12.

2.

Adjust each column on both sides until the table is properly set. While adjusting the columns, tighten each screw after each step to ensure accurate results.

To adjust the table more than 0.016", do these steps:

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.

1.

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. See Figure 14.

Figure 14. Understanding sprocket movement.

2.

Hold the chain away from the sprocket while you turn the sprocket. Make sure, as you adjust each sprocket, that you count the number of teeth that pass a fixed point.

3.

Moving the sprockets clockwise lowers the table and moving them counter-clockwise raises the table. Each tooth on the corner sprockets equals 0.016" of vertical movement when the sprockets are turned.

4.

After you have the table adjusted to within

0.016" from front-to-back and from side-toside, tighten the chain so all of the slack is removed.

5.

Loosen the table mounting 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.

NOTE: This adjustment may require some trial and error. See Figure 12.

6.

Adjust each column on both sides until the table is properly set. While adjusting the columns, tighten each screw after each step to ensure accurate results.

7.

If you have already adjusted the knives, go to page 20 and adjust the feed rollers and chip breaker.

16

Inspecting Knives

The Model W1692 15" Planer features a 3 knife cutterhead. Correctly positioned knives act as a reference point for adjusting the feed rollers and the chip breaker.

The knife edge should be within 0.002" 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

WEAR thick gloves and use extreme caution when working near planer knives. These knives are dangerously sharp! Failure to exercise care while working near knives could result in severe injury.

results. To check the knives, do these steps:

1.

UNPLUG THE PLANER!

2.

Remove the upper cover as shown in

Figure 15 for access to the cutterhead.

3.

Remove the V-belt cover from the lefthand side of the planer (facing front).

4.

Using the V-belt to rotate the cutterhead, turn the cutterhead so one of the knives is accessible.

5.

Position both feet of the knife setting jig on the cutterhead. The knife should barely touch the center of the jig as shown in

Figure 16.

6.

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 adjustments to within

0.001" from one knife end to the other, use a

Planer Pal ® . Refer to Planer Accessories on

pages 34 and 35 for more details.

Knife Adjustment

The Model W1692 15" Planer is equipped with both springs and jack screws for knife adjustment. Springs allow adjustments to be made quickly, while jack screws are more accurate. Both methods are covered below.

WEAR thick gloves and use extreme caution when working near planer knives. These knives are dangerously sharp! Failure to exercise care while working near knives could result in severe injury.

JACK SCREWS support the knives from underneath. By threading the jack screws in or out, you can precisely control the knife height.

See Figure 17 for identification.

To adjust the knives using the jack screws, do these steps:

1.

UNPLUG THE PLANER!

2.

Loosen the gib bolts and remove the gib and knives. Remove all of the springs and place them in a plastic bag.

3.

Tape the bag to the inside of the cabinet so they do not get lost.

4.

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.

5.

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.

6.

Snug the two outermost gib bolts (5 and 4 shown in Figure 18) to hold the knife in position.

7.

Tighten the knives by following the instructions on page 19.

18

Figure 17. Typical SHOP FOX ® cutterhead.

SPRINGS exert upward pressure under the knives while wedge-type gibs and gib bolts lock the knives in place. See Figure 17 for cutterhead assembly identification.

To adjust the knives using the springs, do these steps:

1.

UNPLUG THE PLANER!

2.

Lower the jack screws completely to get them out of the way.

3.

Loosen the gib bolts so the knife will move upward from the pressure of the springs.

4.

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).

5.

Place equal pressure on both ends of the jig so the jig is parallel with the cutterhead and the knife is set.

6.

Snug the two outermost gib bolts (5 and 4 shown in Figure 18) to hold the knife in position.

7.

Tighten the knives by following

“tightening” instructions on page 19.

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.

To tighten the knives after adjustment, do these steps:

1.

UNPLUG THE PLANER!

2.

Alternating back-and-forth, lightly snug the gib bolts following the tightening sequence shown in Figure 18, but DO NOT tighten the bolts completely.

3.

Rotate the cutterhead to the next knife and repeat step 2, and then repeat again with each knife. When all knife gib bolts been snugged, and 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 method as in step 2, but DO NOT tighten the bolts completely. Repeat again with each knife.

4.

When you return to the original knife, tighten all gibs completely in the same fashion, repeating on all knives.

Feed Rollers and

Chip Breaker

The feed rollers and the chip breaker 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 and the chipbreaker is 0.004"-0.008" below the cutterhead knife at bottom dead center. The outfeed roller should be set to 0.020" below the cutterhead knife at bottom dead center.

To accurately perform this adjustment, you will need a dial indicator (not included). Refer to Planer Accessories on pages 34 and 35 for more details.

To adjust the feed rollers and the chip breaker make sure you have adjusted the table as outlined on page 14 first, then do these steps:

1.

UNPLUG THE PLANER!

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 of its thickness.

3.

Place each board across the entire length of the table, on each side of the table, similar to Figure 19.

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 using the feed roller adjustment setscrew shown in Figure 21.

8.

Make sure that each of the adjustment controls for the feed rollers and the chipbreaker are backed off enough so that they will allow the components to move below the current position on the board.

9.

Place the dial indicator where you can measure solid table movement as shown in

Figure 23.

10. Lower the table 0.004"-0.008" as indicated by the Rotacator® or a dial indicator. The feed rollers and the chipbreaker 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. With the table lowered to 0.004"-0.008," lock the infeed roller and the chipbreaker in place. They should now all be set between 0.004"-0.008" below the knife edge when it is at bottom dead center.

12. The outfeed roller should still be able to move with the table. Continue lowering the table another 0.012" (0.008" + 0.012" =

0.020") as indicated by the Rotacator ® or a dial indicator. The outfeed roller should now be set to approximately 0.020" below the knife edge at bottom dead center.

Lock the outfeed roller in place.

21

Chip Deflector

A chip deflector is mounted behind the cutterhead to keep wood chips from falling onto the outfeed roller.

To adjust the chip deflector, do these steps:

1.

UNPLUG THE PLANER!

2.

Loosen the chip deflector mounting bolts shown in Figure 24.

3.

Make sure the deflector is angled toward the cutterhead.

• If you do not use a dust collector, position the edge of the deflector 1 ⁄

16

" from the knife edge.

• If you use a dust collector, position the edge of the deflector 1 ⁄

4

" from the knife edge.

4.

Rotate the cutterhead with the V-belt pulley and make sure there is enough clearance between all the knives and the chip deflector.

5.

Re-tighten the mounting bolts and replace the top cover.

Anti-Kickback Pawls

Unbinding and free operation of the antikickback pawls is essential for the safe operation of the planer. Pawls clogged with pitch, sawdust, or other contaminants can render them useless if a kickback occurs.

The Model W1692 15" Planer features antikickback pawls that allow the workpiece to enter the planer, but stop the workpiece from coming back out of the entrance in the event of a kickback. See Figure 25.

Inspect the anti-kickback pawls frequently to ensure that they swing free and easy and that no pitch, sawdust, or other contaminants restrict operation. Never lubricate the pawls.

Lubrication may cause dust to build-up, which will restrict movement.

Roller Spring Tension

Roller spring tension keeps the workpiece securely fed into the planer without chatter or slipping.

To adjust the roller spring tension, do these steps:

1.

Adjust the threaded plugs A, B,and C so they protrude 1 ⁄

8

" above the head casting.

Figure 26 shows the four spring adjustment plugs.

2.

Adjust plug D so it protrudes 5 ⁄

NOTICE

More adjustments may be necessary to the roller spring tension after the machine has been run and is in safe working condition.

See the Operations section for more details.

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 0.002" and 0.020" above the table (see

Figure 27). 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.

To adjust the table roller height, do these steps:

1.

UNPLUG THE PLANER!

2.

Place a straightedge across the length of the table as shown in Figure 28.

3.

Use a feeler gauge to measure the gap between the table surface and the straightedge, and adjust the table rollers by loosening the setscrews and then turning the eccentric to reach the needed roller height. The gap between the straightedge and the table should be even on both sides of the rollers. See Figure 28.

NOTICE

For super accurate setup, consider purchasing a Rotacator ® . This handy tool allows you to adjust the feed table rollers to an accuracy within 0.001" every time. Refer to

OPERATIONS

Test Run

Before turning the machine ON for the first time, make sure you have read through the entire manual and have completed the instructions given in the Assembly and

Adjustments sections, and that you have taken all safety precautions.

Make sure 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.

Plug in the power cord and 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.

Always wear safety goggles when operating this machine!

Figure 30. Feed rate knob.

Feed Rate

The feed rate is the speed that the rollers drive the workpiece through the planer. Your planer features 16, and 20 FPM feed rates.

As a general rule, the faster the feed rate the faster the workpiece is planed, but a rougher finish is left behind; and the slower the feed rate the slower the workpiece is planed, but a smoother finish is left behind.

Often, a small amount of trial-and-error will be the best way to determine which setting is right for your particular application.

Figure 31. Feed rate knob positions.

NOTICE

DO NOT change speeds while planing or severe damage to gearbox will result!

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 pull or push in the knob as illustrated in Figure 31.

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 planeable.

• 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 the 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.

Troubleshooting Planing Results

This section covers the most common problems with the workpiece that you may encounter. Do not make any adjustments until the planer is unplugged and moving parts have come to a complete stop. For

Machine troubleshooting go to page 32.

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 some common problems, and the solutions woodworkers might use while planing.

SNIPE — More material is being removed from the board ends rather than the middle of the board.

SOLUTIONS:

• Provide more support on the infeed and outfeed sides so the wood travels completely through the planer without any vertical tilting. This alignment problem occurs with all planers to some degree.

• Hold the workpiece flat against the planer tables and rollers so the board does not tilt while entering and exiting the planer.

• Install extra roller stands.

• Raise the table/ lift the board ends.

CHIP MARKS — Chips are not being properly expelled from the cutterhead. The chips get caught between the knives and the workpiece and hinder knife cutting ability. Chip marks are usually random and uneven.

SOLUTIONS:

• Unclog the chip deflector blockage and correct for cause of blockage.

• Increase cleaning intervals.

• Install a dust collector.

CHIPPED GRAIN — Grain shows cut marks and chips.

SOLUTIONS:

• Do not plane against the grain.

• Do not plane wood with knots or cross grain.

• Use sharp knives.

• Make shallower cuts.

• Surface clean and flat stock.

27

FUZZY GRAIN — Grain fibers stand up on the workpiece after planing.

SOLUTIONS:

• Do not surface damp or wet wood, check it with a moisture meter. Anything over

20% should be allowed to dry.

• Install sharp knives.

GLOSSY SURFACE — The wood is scorched, blackened, and/or glossy.

SOLUTIONS:

• Remove all resin or glue build-up on the rollers, cutterhead, and the surface of the wood to be planed.

• Install sharp knives so shallow cuts do not have to be made to compensate for dull knives that burn the wood. If this is the case and the condition has existed for a long time, the knives may be damaged as a result and cannot be turned. The knives must be replaced.

• If knives are sharp and a glossy surface still results, increase the cutting depth.

WOOD DOES NOT FEED CORRECTLY — The planer draws wood in erratically or slowly.

SOLUTIONS:

• Plane wood that is not twisted or warped

• Remove any pitch build-up on the feed rollers.

• Replace the knives if they are dull or broken.

MAINTENANCE

General

Regular periodic maintenance on your Model

W1692 15" 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-belts.

• Any other condition that could hamper the safe operation of this machine.

Cleaning

Wear safety glasses and a respirator and use compressed air to blow-off dust buildup. Dust build-up around the motor can lead to motor failure.

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.

Table

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™.

Disconnect power to the machine when performing any maintenance or repairs. Failure to do this may result in serious personal injury.

Inspect your planer for loose nuts and bolts. Make sure that all tools are cleared away from the machine.

28

Lubrication

Since all bearings are sealed and permanently lubricated, leave them alone until they need to be replaced. Do not lubricate them. However, the Model W1692 15" Planer does need lubrication in the following listed places, depending on heavy use and the shop environment:

Columns and Lead Screws — Lubricate columns as needed with light oil to prevent rust, and lubricate the four leadscrews once with a general purpose grease to prevent rust and maintain smooth operation.

Worm Gear — Under heavy use, inspect the worm gear yearly and lubricate when needed. The worm gear box will need to be removed to perform the inspection. See

Figure 34.

Chain — Inspect the table height adjustment chain periodically and lubricate as needed. Use high quality chain lubricant for best results.

Gear Box — Drain the gear box after the first 30 hours of operation. Figure 35 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 Chains — Inspect and lubricate the drive chains every six months. Check the sprockets, the chain, and the master links during inspection. Use a general purpose grease to lubricate the chain.

Feed Rollers — The feed roller plugs have holes to accept oil. Make sure that no dust is in the oil holes and lubricate feed roller plugs with two drops of oil before daily start-up. Figure 36 shows the lubrication points for the feed rollers. DO NOT lubricate more than two drops or the excess oil will end up on the floor.

Belt Tension

Frequently inspect the V-belt tension during the first twenty hours of break-in operation.

During this period, the belts will stretch and seat, which can generate a fair amount of black dust inside of the belt cover. This dust buildup is a normal condition during planer life since the cover retains the dust.

However, it is very important that you check the drive belts so all belts have the same

tension (belt deflection) after the break-in period. If one belt is looser than the others you must align the pulleys.

When replacing belts, always replace belts as a matched set.

To adjust belt tension, lower the motor slightly by loosening the lower jam nut shown in Figure

40. When belt tension is satisfactory, tighten the upper jam nuts down onto the motor bracket to secure it.

DO NOT over-tighten the jam nuts if the motor mount casting ear is tilted and the nuts do not contact the casting ear surface evenly (See

Figure 40). The ear can snap off. Merely snug the jam nuts.

Pulley Alignment

The V-belt pulleys must be aligned with each other so all belts share the same belt tension

(deflection). If the belts do not share the same work load, belt life will suffer. Check the alignment with a good quality straightedge as shown in Figure 41.

To align the pulleys:

1.

Loosen the belt tension jam nuts so the motor will freely move up and down.

2.

Loosen, but do not remove, the bolts that secure the motor to the motor mounting plate.

3.

Slide the motor as needed to align the pulleys.

4.

When the pulleys are aligned, tighten the motor mount bolts.

5.

Tension the V-belts and replace the belt cover.
