Using the 201HH Planer is straightforward. First, make sure the machine is properly connected to a 230V power source as it has a 7.5HP 1 - phase motor. You can adjust the feed speed between 20 and 30 fpm according to whether you're doing rough or fine finish work. The adjustable bed rollers can be set to let rough or finished workpieces feed smoothly. To access the rollers and knives, just open the hinged top. For dust collection, connect a system to the 5 - inch dust port. When planing, place your boards on the table, and the infeed and outfeed rollers will move them through. The sectional infeed roller and chip breaker allow you to plane multiple boards at once. Remember, the maximum planing thickness is 9 - 1/4 inches and the maximum width is 22 inches, and the minimum planing length is 10 inches. When switching from rough to finish work, quickly change the two - speed gearbox at the front. As for maintenance, keep the dust collection system working well to prevent dust buildup. Check the roller bearings regularly for smooth operation. Also, be aware that this product may cause cancer and reproductive harm as indicated by Prop 65.
