Changing type of blade
This tool can accept either throw away blades or standard blades. If you wish to change the type of blade, buy and use
the following parts.
Changing from standard blade to throw-away blade
Set plate
Throw-away blade (306 mm)
Magnetic holder
Hood set (Fig. 17)
When you wish to maintain clean operations through easy dust collection, connect the vacuum cleaner to the thick-
nesser using this hood.
Loosen the thumb screws which secure the chip cover. Attach the hood to the thicknesser and secure the chip cover
and the hood together by tightening the thumb screws.
CAUTION:
• When installing the hood set, make sure that the chain is not caught by the chip cover or hood set. (Fig. 18)
OPERATION
CAUTION:
• Two or more pieces of narrow but similar thickness stock can be passed through the thicknesser side by side. How-
ever, allow some spacing between the stock to permit the feed rollers to grip the thinnest piece of stock. Otherwise, a
slightly thinner piece could be kicked back by the cutterhead.
Place the workpiece flat on the table top.
Determine the depth of cut as described before.
Switch on the tool and wait until the blades attain full speed. The workpiece should not be in contact with the feed roller
when you turn the tool on.
Then insert the workpiece flush with the table top.
When cutting a long or heavy workpiece, lift up its end slightly at the start and the end of the cut to avoid gouging or
snipping at the extreme ends of the workpiece. (Fig. 19)
The use of the tool top enables quick, effortless return of the workpiece to the infeed table side. This is especially con-
venient with two operators. (Fig. 20)
CAUTION:
• The workpiece with the following dimensions cannot be fed into the tool because the interval between two feed roll-
ers is 129 mm. Do not try to cut them.

• Stop the tool when the workpiece has stalled. Allowing the tool to run with a stalled workpiece causes rapid wearing
of the feed rollers.
