Chip Deflector Gap Setting ..................
When properly distanced from the cutterhead, the
chip deflector directs the chips into the dust hood,
and keeps them from falling onto the outfeed roller
and being pressed into the workpiece.

To adjust chip deflector gap:
1.
DISCONNECT MACHINE FROM POWER!
2.
Remove dust hood, top cover, and belt cover.
3.
Use cutterhead pulley to rotate cutterhead
until a knife/insert reaches closest distance
to chip deflector (see Figure below), then
measure distance between knife/insert and
chip deflector.
