Additional Safety Instructions For Planers

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.

1. Ensure that the machine sits firmly on the

floor before use. Any “wobbles” must be corrected by shimming or blocking before operation.

2. This machine is not designed to process

any other material except wood.

3. Never position fingers or thumbs near the

infeed roller.

4. Long stock should always be fully support-

ed by some type of support fixture.

5. Do not operate planer with dull or damaged

knives.

6. Ensure that the planer is properly adjusted

before using.

7. Do not remove excessive amounts of

wood in a single pass.

8. Inspect your stock before planing. Reject

stock with defects and foreign material

9. Do not attempt to remove jams until power

is disconnected and all moving parts have come to a complete stop.

10. Provide adequate infeed and outfeed

space for operating the planer.

11. Do not plane wood less than 12" long and

⁄

4" thick.

12. Do not plane lumber with loose knots or

knots that may become loose during planing.

Operating this equipment has the potential to propel debris into the air which can 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).

Like all power tools, there is danger associated with the Model G1033 20" Planer. Accidents are frequently caused by lack of familiarity or failure to pay attention. Use this tool with respect and caution to lessen the possibility of operator injury. If normal safety precautions are overlooked or ignored serious personal injury may occur.

G1033 20" Planer -5-

220V Operation

SECTION 2: CIRCUIT REQUIREMENTS

The Model G1033 should be fused at 30 amps. Fusing at amperage ratings higher than 30 amps will not adequately protect the motor. You are cautioned that equipment that is returned to us for service that shows evidence of being overfused will be repaired or replaced totally at the customer’s expense, regardless of the present warranty status.

Fusing

We do not recommend the use of extension cords on 220V equipment. It is much better to arrange the placement of your equipment and the installed wiring to eliminate the need for extension cords. Should it be necessary to use an extension make sure the cord is rated Hard Service (grade S) or better. Refer to the chart in Section 1: Safety Instructions to determine the minimum gauge for the extension cord. The extension cord must also contain a ground wire and plug pin. Always repair or replace extension cords when they become worn or damaged.

Extension Cords

Grounding

This equipment must be grounded. Please

ensure that this machine is continuously grounded from the motor to the machine frame and then to a known ground. Verify that any existing electrical outlet and circuit you intend to plug into is actually grounded. If it is not, it will be necessary to run a separate 12 A.W.G. copper grounding wire from the outlet to a known ground. Under no circumstances should the grounding pin from any three-pronged plug

be removed. Serious injury may occur.

Figure 1. Twist-lock style 30A connector.

In the event of an electrical short, grounding reduces the risk of electric shock by providing a path of least resistance to disperse electric current. This tool is equipped with a power cord having an equipment-grounding conductor. The outlet must be properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.

The 3 HP G1033 Planer motor is wired to operate at 220V only. A 220V plug that matches your 220V receptacle must attach to the end of the power cord. Plugs and receptacles can be purchased at your local hardware store or home center. When connecting to 220V, ensure that the electrical circuit is in fact a 220V circuit. Contact your local electrical contractor if uncertain about converting to 220V operation. A wiring diagram for the motor and switch is provided at the back of this manual should more detail be needed.

When operating at 220V, we recommend using a

NEMA-style 6-30 plug and outlet. See Figure 1.

You may also “hard-wire” the planer directly to your panel, provided you place a disconnect switch near the machine.

Site Considerations

FLOOR LOAD

Your G1033 Planer represents a large weight load in a small footprint. Most commercial floors are suitable for the Model G1033. Some residential floors may require additional build up to support both machine and operator.

WORKING CLEARANCES

Working clearances can be thought of as the distances between machines and obstacles that allow safe operation of every machine without limitation. Consider existing and anticipated machine needs, size of material to be processed through each machine, and space for auxiliary stands and/or work tables. Also consider the relative position of each machine to one another for efficient material handling. Be sure to allow yourself sufficient room to safely run your machines in any foreseeable operation.

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 combined motor amp loads. Outlets should be located near each machine so power or extension cords are not obstructing high-traffic areas. Be sure to observe local electrical codes for proper installation of new lighting, outlets, or circuits.

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.

Clean Up

The unpainted surfaces are coated with a waxy oil to protect it from corrosion during shipment. Remove this protective coating with with a solvent cleaner or citrus-based degreaser. Avoid chlorine-based solvents as they may damage painted surfaces should they come in contact. Always follow the usage instructions on the product you choose for clean up.

Many of the solvents commonly used to clean machinery can be highly flammable, and 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. Keep children and animals safely away when cleaning and assembling this machine.

Do not use gasoline or other petroleumbased solvents to remove this protective coating. These products generally have low flash points which makes them extremely flammable. A risk of explosion and burning exists if these products are used. Serious personal injury may occur.

Some die-cut metal parts may have sharp edges (called “flashing”) on them after they are formed. Please examine the edges of all die-cut metal parts before handling them. Failure to do so could result in injury.

SECTION 4: ASSEMBLY

Overview

Most of your G1033 Planer has been assembled at the factory, but some parts must be assembled or installed after delivery. We have organized the assembly process into steps. Please follow along in the order presented here.

TOOLS REQUIRED: Most of the tools required

for assembly are included with the planer. However, you will also need a Phillips

and regular screwdriver, metric wrenches, as well as a feeler gauge for adjustments.

Extension Rollers

The Model G1033 is supplied with extension rollers on both the infeed and outfeed ends of the table. The roller assemblies are identical for both infeed and outfeed. To attach the extension rollers:

1. Attach an extension bar to the end of each

roller and secure with the 12mm snap rings provided.

2. The assembled extension rollers attach to

the ends of the planer’s table. Match the tapped holes on the side of the table to the extension bars and attach with the M10 x

1.5 Hex Bolts and washers provided. See

Figure 2.

3. Before final tightening, run a straight edge

across the table and past each roller. Position the rollers flush with the table and tighten the Hex Bolts securely.

Figure 2. Extension roller attachment.

Mounting Bolts

Hand Wheel

The hand wheel operates the chain driven system which raises and lowers the table to control cutting depth. To attach the hand wheel:

1. Place the handwheel on the worm gear

shaft and secure with hex nut and washer

provided. See Figure 3.

2. Attach the handle to the handwheel and

tighten hex nut.

Figure 3. Attaching handwheel.

Dust Hood

The G1033 features a dust hood with a 5'' dust port. It is only to be used in conjunction with a dust collection system. Install the dust hood as follows:

1. Match the mounting holes on the dust hood

with the tapped holes on the outfeed end of the cutterhead casting.

2. Using the six M6-1.0 Hex bolts provided,

secure the dust hood to the cutterhead

casting. See Figure 4.

See note regarding the use of a dust collector and chip deflector adjustment in the adjustment section of this manual.

Figure 4. Dust hood in place.

Switch

The magnetic ON/OFF switch supplied with the Planer is pre-wired to the motor. The remaining step requires connecting the switch to the planer's head casting. To attach the switch:

1. Align the holes on the flanges at the back of

the switch box with the tapped holes on the front left corner of the head casting.

2. Using the socket head cap screws provid-

ed, attach the switch box assembly to the

head casting. See Figure 5.

The G1033 is shipped without a plug. Now would be a good time to attach the appropriate plug specified in Section 2: Circuit Requirements.

Figure 5. Attaching switch.

Do not attempt to make any adjustments to this machine or perform routine maintenance without unplugging it from its power source. Serious injury could result.

DO NOT attach the dust hood if you do not intend to connect the Model G1033 to a dust collection system. Accumulated wood chips could cause a malfunction, resulting in personal injury or damage to the planer.

Chain Adjustment

SECTION 5: ADJUSTMENTS

The chain drive in the Model G1033 transfers movement from the hand wheel driven column to the three other support columns. The chain drive may require adjustment to remove slack as the chain stretches over time, or as part of table leveling procedures. To adjust the chain:

1. Remove the two access panels on the

stand.

2. Loosen the two locking bolts and move the

idler sprocket until chain play has been

eliminated. See Figure 7.

3. Re-tighten the two locking bolts.

4. Check chain lubrication. Refer to the Maintenance Section for further details.

Figure 7. Idler sprocket adjustment.

Table Adjustment

The Model G1033’s table movement is critical to the operation of the machine. As such, it is essential that the table is aligned correctly with the cutterhead and the head casting. For the power feed to work correctly, it is important that the table be the same distance from the head casting in front and back. To make table adjustments, it will be necessary to construct the measurement block ''A''. See page 36 for a full size print of block ''A''. To adjust the front-to-back distances:

1. Place Block ''A'' on the front right corner of

the table and raise the table until the top of the block comes in contact with the bottom of the head casting.

2. Without moving the table position, move

the block to the rear right corner under the head casting. If the block will not fit under the head casting, or if the gap between the head casting and the table exceeds .016'' (use a feeler gauge to determine gap) you

will need to adjust the chain drive. See

Figure 8.

Figure 8. Measurement block in place.

Idler Sprocket

G1033 20" Planer -13-

Chain Drive

Adjust the chain drive by loosening the chain tensioner and loosen the chain until you can turn each corner sprocket independently. If the back of the table is too high, the back two sprockets will need to be rotated clockwise to lower the table. Each tooth on the sprocket represents .016" of vertical movement as the cogs are turned. Make sure, as you turn the sprocket, to keep an accurate tooth count to ensure that the table is lowered equally on both the left and right sides. Turn the sprockets in small increments until the front clearance matches the back.

When the front-to-back clearance is within the .016'' tolerance, tighten the idler sprocket on the chain drive and tighten the lock bolts.

With the front-to-back adjustments made, we can concentrate on the alignment between the table and cutterhead. To check table-to-cutterhead alignment:

1. Place Block ''A'' on the table under the left

end of the cutterhead. Raise the table until the block touches the bottom of the cutter-

head. See Figure 9.

2. Slide the block across the table toward the

right side of the cutterhead.

3. If the block becomes too tightly wedged

between the table and the cutterhead, or if there is a noticeable gap between the block and the cutterhead, the table will need to be adjusted.

4. If you find a substantial gap (larger than

.016''), follow the directions above for loosening the chain drive and turn the two right sprockets (independently of the chain) until the gap is eliminated. Turn the sprockets counterclockwise from the bottom to raise the table.

5. If the table is too high at the right side,

rotate the sprockets in the opposite direction.

Figure 9. Using block to align cutterhead.

Figure 10. Micro-adjustment screws.

When you get the tolerance to within the .016'' range, micro-adjust by loosening the Allen head cap screws and lifting the table upward or downward until the table and cutterhead are in align-

ment. See Figure 10. This process may require

adjusting the columns on both the left and right hand sides until you find the correct combination.

REMEMBER: When making adjustments, be

certain to tighten fasteners after each step to ensure the accuracy of your tests. When adjusting the chain drive, keep in mind that if the chain becomes too loose, it will fall off of all the sprockets. Returning it to its proper location can be frustrating.

G1033 20" Planer

Bed Rollers

After completing adjustments to the table, align the bed rollers. The height of the bed rollers will vary, depending on the type of material you intend to plane. When planing rough stock, you will need to set the rollers high to keep the lumber from dragging along the bed. Milled lumber should be planed with the rollers set lower. To adjust the rollers correctly:

1. Lay a good quality straightedge across

both bed rollers, using a machinist's square to keep the straightedge perpendicular to the table.

2. Using a feeler gauge, measure the dis-

tance between the straightedge and the table. The tolerance between the table and the straightedge should be the same across the table. The ideal tolerance should be between 0'' and .015'', the larger

measurement for rougher stock. See Figure 11. Be careful using the larger toler-

ance. Anytime the rollers are higher than the table the potential exists for snipe, or gouging near the end of the board

Figure 12. Roller height adjustment.

Figure 11. Bed roller tolerances.

4. Once your roller heights are corrected, re-

tighten the setscrews.

5. Spin the rollers and inspect for free move-

ment.

3. To adjust the rollers, loosen the setscrews

at the left end of the rollers and, using an Allen

wrench, raise or lower the rollers on

their eccentric shafts to reach your desired

height across the table. See Figure 12.

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.

G1033 20" Planer -15-

Knife Inspection

The G1033 20" Planer comes equipped with a 4knife cutterhead. The knives must be periodically replaced or adjusted. Adjustments should be as precise as possible with tolerances within ±.001'' to prolong the sharpness of the knife edges. Improperly adjusted knives can unbalance the cutterhead and shorten bearing life, as well as produce substandard planing results. The knives are set at the factory before shipping, but now is a good time to double-check. To inspect and adjust knife set:

1. Remove the upper cover to expose the top

of the cutterhead.

2. Carefully turn the cutterhead (using the pul-

ley) until the first knife is top dead center.

3. Using the knife adjusting jig, check the

knife height. The jig should sit solidly with

both feet on the cutterhead. See Figure 13.

If the knife is adjusted properly, the contact point at the center of each adjuster should just touch the tip of the knife. If the knife does not make contact, or if the knife causes the adjuster’s legs to not seat on the cutterhead, the knives need to be adjusted.

Figure 13. Knife height adjustment.

Knife Adjustment

The knives are locked into the cutterhead with wedge type gibs and gib bolts. Springs under the knives give an upward pressure to help in the setting process. To re-align the knives:

1. Loosen the gib bolts until the knife is forced

upward by the springs. The gib bolts turn clockwise to loosen and counterclockwise to tighten (when facing the head of the

bolt). See Figure 14.

2. Place the adjusters on the cutterhead as

described above, so the feet are securely planted on the cutterhead. Make sure the adjuster extension rod is parallel to the cutterhead, so both ends of the knife receive equal pressure from the adjuster.

3. The downward pressure provided by the

adjuster will set the knives at a uniform protrusion of approximately .070" above the cutter. The knife height should vary no more than .001" across the length of the cutterhead.

4. Maintain a constant pressure on the

adjuster while re-tightening the gib bolts.

5. Repeat the same procedure on the remain-

ing knives. As mentioned before, the standard adjuster is satisfactory for reasonably accurate knife setting tasks.

Figure 14. Cutterhead assembly.

Tighten

-16- G1033 20" Planer

5. Place Block ''A'' under the cutterhead with a

.040'' feeler gauge above it and raise the table until the block reaches the cutterhead. Center one of the knives at the bottom of the cutterhead as you raise the table. Rock the cutterhead backward and forward as you raise the table and stop when the knife

just touches the feeler gauge. See Figure

17.

6. The table is now positioned correctly. Lock

the table in place.

7. Remove the feeler gauge and move the

block to the right end of the infeed drive roller.

Feed Roller Speed

The infeed and outfeed rollers power the stock through the planer. They keep boards flat and provide smooth movement. The power feed features two feed rates - 16 FPM and 20 FPM. The speed can be changed by moving the feed con-

trol knob when the machine is running. See Figure 15. Moving the knob toward the machine

(Pos B) produces the 20 FPM feed speed, away from the machine (Pos D) produces 16 FPM and a center position (Pos C) places the gearbox in neutral.

Figure 15. Feed speed control.

Roller Adjustment

The infeed and outfeed rollers must be set at .040" below the level of the cutting edge of the knives. To set the height of the infeed and outfeed rollers:

1. Disconnect the planer from its power

source.

2. Make sure the knives are set correctly.

3. Remove the chain cover. Refer to the pre-

run check for removal instruction.

4. Loosen the cap screw that holds the static

chain tensioner and swing the tensioner out

of the way. See Figure 16.

Figure 16. Static chain tensioner adjustment.

NOTICE

The feed rate must be set before feeding lumber into the planer. DO NOT attempt to change speeds after the planing operation has begun. Damage to the gearbox will result.

G1033 20" Planer -17-

8. Move the feed speed control knob to the

center neutral position.

9. Rotate the sprocket at the end of the

infeed roller. The teeth at the bottom of the roller should contact the top of the block if the roller is properly adjusted. If the roller teeth will not clear the block, or if there is a gap between the block and the infeed roller, you will need to make adjustments.

10. If you need to adjust the roller up or down,

loosen the lock nut and turn the setscrew

to raise or lower the rollers. See Figure 18.

Figure 17. Feeler measures roller adjustment.

11. Follow the same procedure at the other

end of the infeed roller and on both sides of the outfeed roller. Do not change the table height yet, the next sections will require the same settings.

12. Be sure to tighten the lock nut as soon as

you have adjusted each roller to its proper height.

Figure 18. Adjusting roller height.

Spring Tension

Roller spring tension must be adjusted so that roller pressure is uniform. To adjust roller spring tension:

1. Locate the four adjustment screws located on the top of the planer. See Figure 19.

2. Adjust screws #1 - #3 so that they protrude

⁄

8" above the head casting.

3. Adjust screw #4 so that it protrudes

⁄16"

above the head casting.

Figure 19. Tension screw locations.

Tension screws #1 - #3

Tension screw #4

2. Place your test block under the middle of

the chipbreaker (the table should still be at the same height as it was when you set the infeed and outfeed rollers).

3. Loosen the lock nuts at both ends of the

chipbreaker and turn the setscrews to raise or lower the chipbreaker as necessary. The chipbreaker will move evenly, so it does not matter which setscrew you turn. (You will need to raise the second setscrew if the chipbreaker needs to be lowered).

4. When the chipbreaker reaches its proper

height .040'' below the cutterhead height, tighten the lock nut and adjust the other setscrew and lock nut to match.

Figure 20. Chipbreaker adjustment.

Chipbreaker

The chipbreaker breaks chips/curls as they are cut by the cutterhead and forces chips to eject from the cutting area. Due to its functions within the planer, the chipbreaker should be adjusted carefully and checked frequently for movement. To adjust the chipbreaker:

1. Disconnect planer from its power source

and remove the top cover. Note the location

of the setscrews and lock nuts. See Figure

20.

Pressure Bar

Like the chipbreaker, the pressure bar controls lumber as it passes under the cutterhead. The pressure bar keeps lumber from lifting after it has been planed. If the pressure bar is incorrectly positioned, a number of machining defects (including snipe and board lines) can result. A pressure bar set too low can also place excess load on the planer’s motor. The pressure bar should be adjusted along with the infeed and outfeed rollers. To adjust the pressure bar:

1. Disconnect the planer from its power sup-

ply.

2. Remove top cover. Note setscrew and lock

nut pictured in Figure 21. Loosen the lock

nuts.

3. Place the gauge block under the center of

the pressure bar and adjust the setscrew until the pressure bar makes slight contact with the tip of the block. Like the chipbreaker, the pressure bar can be adjusted with one setscrew. Make sure to adjust the second setscrew to match the one you’ve just adjusted.

4. Tighten the lock nut in place.

Figure 21. Pressure bar adjustment.

G1033 20" Planer -19-

Chip Deflector

The chip deflector keeps chips from falling onto the outfeed roller. To adjust the deflector:

1. Disconnect the planer from its power

source and remove the planer’s dust cover.

2. Loosen the deflector’s mounting bolts. See

the parts diagram for location.

3. Make sure the deflector is beveled toward

the cutterhead. Move the deflector until the edge is approximately

⁄16'' from the tip of the cutting knives. Rotate the cutterhead to ensure clearance.

4. Re-tighten the mounting bolts and return

the top cover to the planer.

Static Chain Adjuster

Once the rollers, chip breaker and pressure bar are properly adjusted, you will need to reset the static chain tensioner. Proper tensioner adjustment is crucial to your planer’s operation. Not only will it have a direct effect on the quality of your work, incorrect tension on the drive chain may cause the rollers to jam, or cause the chain to break. To adjust the static chain tensioner:

1. Place the test block under the right side of

the outfeed roller. Make sure that the block and the roller are in slight contact.

2. Note the height of the table on the metric

portion of the scale below the handwheel. Crank the handwheel until the table moves one millimeter towards the head casting. The outfeed roller will have lifted .040''.

3. Rotate the static chain tensioner up until the chain is tight. See Figure 22.

4. Once the chain is tight, secure the screw

that holds it in place and lower the table until you can remove the block.

5. When the tensioner is correctly adjusted,

replace the backing plate and the chain drive cover.

Figure 22. Chain tensioner adjustment.

NOTICE

When using a dust collector, it may be necessary to increase the distance from the cutterhead/knives to the deflector to aid in chip removal.

-20- G1033 20" Planer

The scale can be adjusted for accuracy. The machine will need to be run to make proper adjustments. Follow the directions on the following page for a test run before attempting to make adjustments. Once you’ve successfully tested the planer:

1. Set the table to the approximate thickness

of your test lumber. Measure the lumber with calipers to determine its exact thickness.

2. Move the table to

⁄16'' under the thickness of your lumber and feed your test board through the planer.

3. Turn the handwheel one full rotation and

run the board through once more. Turn the board over and repeat.

4. Re-measure the board and compare your

results with the scale. If there is a discrepancy, loosen the Allen

head bolts and

adjust to match your findings. See Figure

23.

Scale Adjustment

The Model G1033 provides an anti-kickback system as a safety feature. The anti-kickback fingers hang from a rod suspended across the cutterhead casting. The anti-kickback fingers should be inspected regularly. Check the fingers to ensure

that they swing freely and easily. See Figure 24.

Do not apply oil or other lubricants to the antikickback fingers. Oil or grease will attract dust, restricting the free movement of the fingers.

Anti-Kickback Fingers

Figure 24. Anti-kickback fingers.

Proper operation of the anti-kickback fingers are essential for the safe operation of this machine. Failure to ensure that they are working properly could result in serious operator injury.

G1033 20" Planer -21-

1. Inspect lumber for defects, warping, cupping,

twisting, and for foreign objects (nails, staples, imbedded gravel, etc,). If you have any question about the quality of your lumber, do not use it. Remember, wood stacked on a concrete floor can have small pieces of stone or concrete pressed into the wood.

2. Use the full width of the planer. Alternate

between the left, the right and the middle when feeding lumber into the planer. Your knives will remain sharp much longer.

3. Scrape all glue off of joined boards before

planing.

4. Plane ONLY natural wood fiber. No wood

composites.

5. Surface wood with the grain. NEVER feed

end-cut or end-grained lumber into your planer.

6. Do not use boards with knots, splits, cross-

grain or other obvious blemishes or defects. They can damage the machine and pose the possibility of operator injury.

7. Keep your work area clear.

8. When making multiple passes through the

planer on long stock, use the stock return rollers on the top of the machine to move the material back to the infeed side of the machine.

9. Avoid planing wood with a high water con-

tent. Wood with more than 20% moisture content or wood exposed to rain or snow, will plane poorly and cause excessive wear to the knives and motor. Excess moisture can also hasten rust and corrosion.

Operational Tips

Once the assembly is complete and the adjustments are done to your satisfaction, you are ready to test the machine.

Turn on the power supply at the main panel. Press the START button. Make sure that your finger is poised on the STOP button, just in case there is a problem. The planer should run smoothly, with little or no vibration or rubbing noises. Strange or unnatural noises should be investigated and corrected before operating the machine further.

Test Run

SECTION 6: Operations

DO NOT attempt to investigate or adjust the machine while it is running. Wait until the machine is turned off, unplugged and all working parts have come to a rest before you do anything!

If noises occur that cannot be found by visual inspection, feel free to contact our service department for help.

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).

G1033 20" Planer

Wood Characteristics

The species of wood, as well as condition, will affect planing ability. The harder the wood, the more difficult it will be to plane. We’ve included below, a list of wood characteristics you may encounter when planing. The following descriptions of defects will give you some possible answers to problems you may encounter while planing different materials. Possible solutions follow the descriptions.

Chipped Grain - usually a result of cutting

against the grain, or planing wood with knots or excessive amount of cross grain. Chipped grain can also be caused by dull knives or misaligned chipbreaker. Often, chipped grain can be avoided by slowing down the feed rate and by taking shallow cuts. If those options do not work, inspect your lumber and determine if its grain pattern is causing the problem. If the wood does not show substantial crossgrain, inspect your knives for sharpness and inspect the chipbreaker for proper alignment. See the Adjustment Section.

Fuzzy Grain - Usually caused by surfacing lum-

ber with too high a moisture content. Sometimes fuzzy grain is a characteristic of some woods, such as basswood. Fuzzy grain can also be caused by dull knives or an incorrect grinding bevel. Check with a moisture meter. If moisture is greater than 20%, sticker the wood and allow to dry. Otherwise, inspect knife condition.

Glossy Surface - Usually caused by dull knives

taking shallow cuts at a slow feed speed. Surface gloss will usually be accompanied by overheating. Often, lumber will be scorched and eventually, damage to knives will occur. If knives are sharp on inspection, increase feed speed and/or cutting depth.

Snipe - Occurs when board ends have more

material removed than the rest of the board. Usually caused when one or both of the bed rollers are set too high. Can also be caused by the chipbreaker or pressure bar being set too high. However, small amount of snipe is inevitable.

Snipe can be minimized by proper adjustment of the planer’s components, but complete removal of snipe is extremely unlikely. More likely, you will be able to reduce it to a tolerance of .002". If snipe under that level is a problem, consider planing lumber longer than your intended work length and cut off the excess after planing is completed.

Uneven Knife Marks - Uneven knife marks can

occur when the chipbreaker is set too high. Inspect cutterhead bearings if re-adjustment of the chipbreaker fails to remedy the situation.

Chatter Marks - Usually caused by incorrect

chipbreaker and pressure bar setting heights. Chatter marks can also be caused by running a narrow wood piece through the planer at either the right or left end of the cutterhead. Chatter, like uneven knife marks, will show in the form of a ''washboard'' look. Chatter marks are more likely to be inconsistent in appearance than uneven knife marks.

Wavy Surface - Caused by poor knife height

adjustment, wavy surface appears when one knife is taking deeper cuts than the rest of the knives. Remedy by re-setting the knives to a tolerance of ± .001".

Pitch & Glue Build-up - Glue and resin build-up

on the rollers and cutterhead will cause overheating by decreasing cutting sharpness while increasing drag in the feed mechanism. The result can include scorched lumber as well as uneven knife marks and chatter.

Chip Marks - Occur when chips aren’t properly

expelled from the cutterhead. The knives catch the chips and drag them across the lumber being planed. Chips tend to be random and non-uniform (as compared to chipped grain). Can be caused by exhaust blockage or too much room between the cutterhead and chip deflector. Using a dust collection system in combination with the planer can help reduce chip marks. Inspect the chip deflector and readjust (as described earlier in the text).

G1033 20" Planer -23-

SECTION 7: MAINTENANCE

Make a habit of inspecting your planer each time you use it. Check for the following conditions and repair or replace when necessary.

1. Loose mounting bolts.

2. Worn switch.

3. Worn or damaged cords and plugs.

4. Damaged V-belts.

5. Any other condition that could hamper the

safe operation of this machine.

General

Knife Sharpening

Knife sharpness is one of the most important factors in getting good results with the planer. Knives can be made to last a long time if care is taken in checking the condition of the wood which is put into the machine. The biggest problem will come from wood with nails or other metal embedded. This will nick or chip the knives and can require a complete regrinding. Another wear factor is sand, grit, or other dirt on the surface of the wood which the knives have to cut through. At the speed the cutterhead is rotating, these types of surface contamination can have a very abrasive effect.

This planer has knives with a grind angle of 45˚ which is a configuration which should suit most general planing needs. The optimal grind or bevel angle is a compromise between effective cutting (the smaller the angle the better the cutting action) and edge life where the larger the angle the more the edge is supported, thus the longer it will last.

For the best results it is best to have planer knives sharpened by a professional sharpening service which has the grinding and measurement equipment to assure that the knife cutting geometry is maintained at optimum levels. It is a procedure which requires some care and precision, otherwise a set of blades can be easily ruined. Knives should always be ground as a set so they can be properly matched. Unequal material removal can result in an unbalanced cutterhead which can affect not only planing surface quality but ultimately the life of the cutterhead bearings.

Please refer to Section 5 Adjustments - Knife Adjustments for complete detail on the removal and reinstallation of the planer knives.

DO NOT make adjustments or attempt any maintenance procedures while this machine is running. Ensure that the switch is off, power is disconnected and moving parts have stopped before making any adjustments. Failure to follow this directive could result in serious operator injury.

-24- G1033 20" Planer

Lubrication

The Model G1033 features factory-sealed bearings. A sealed bearing requires no lubrication during its lifetime. Should a bearing fail, your planer will probably develop a noticeable rumble, which will increase when the machine is put under load. If allowed to get worse, overheating of the journal containing the bad bearing could occur. If the bad bearing is not replaced, it will eventually seize - possibly doing damage to other parts of the machine. Bearings are standard sizes and can be replaced through Grizzly.

Proper lubrication of other components of the Model G1033 are essential for long life and trouble-free operation. Below is a list of components that require periodic lubrication. Schedules are based on daily use. Adjust accordingly for your level of use.

Columns/Lead Screws - The four columns

should be lubricated weekly with light oil. Unfasten dust covers to gain access. The four lead screws should be lubricated with general purpose grease once a month.

Worm Gear - The worm gear should be inspect-

ed monthly and lubricated when needed. Remove the worm gear box to inspect. See parts diagram for location.

Chain - The table height adjustment chain should

be inspected monthly and lubricated when needed. A good quality bicycle chain lubricant works well for periodic lubrication.

Gear Box - Gear box oil should be drained after the first 20 hours of operation. See Figure 25.

Replace with 80W-90W gear oil. Inspect levels periodically and change yearly. Replace gear oil more frequently under heavy use. Fill until oil reaches the top of the filler plug port for correct oil level.

Drive Chain - The drive chain should be inspect-

ed and lubricated monthly. Check sprocket, chain and cotter pin during inspection. Use a general purpose grease. Some chains will have master links instead of cotter pins.

Feed Rollers - Daily lubrication of feed rollers is

crucial to the operation of your planer. Lubricate before start-up. Each end of each power feed roller has an oiling port located on the top of the

head casting. See Figure 26. Apply a light oil,

making sure that the lubricant penetrates the bearing.

Figure 25. Gear Box drain and fill plugs.

Figure 26. Feed roller lubrication points.

Drain

G1033 20" Planer -25-

Belt Tension

Inspect the belts daily for the first couple of weeks you operate the planer. This is the time that the majority of stretching will occur. Adjust belt tension by lowering the motor down slightly.

See Figure 27. Establish a periodic schedule of

inspection. Check for wear, cracking, nicks, or glazing. Replace belts immediately if you spot any signs of deterioration. Always use three belts when operating the Model G1033.

Belt Alignment

Proper belt alignment prevents premature belt

wear. See Figure 28. Use a straightedge on the

edge of the pulleys to judge alignment.

Figure 27. Adjustments for belt tension.

Figure 28. Pulley alignment procedure.

Should you find that the pulleys are out of alignment:

1. Loosen the belt tension to allow motor

movement.

2. Loosen the four (4) bolts that secure the

motor to the mounting plate just enough to allow the motor to be repositioned.

3. Slide the motor as required to align the pul-

leys..

4. Re-tighten the motor mount bolts carefully

to assure that the tightening process does not move the motor.

5. Re-tension the belt as shown in the previ-

ous column.

6. Replace the belt cover.
