I think it has been resolved. The springs that allow the outfeed to move were super tight due to the locking but that determine the tension. I now have movement :D

Hey guys. I have a brand new planer/thicknesser, and I've just tried the thicknessing side of things. Ran fine for a while, but now my work gets stuck in the machine. I have to punch it with all my weight to get it to go through the machine. I found the issue. The wood gets stuck in front of the...

absolutely fine here.

Thanks everyone! Yes the slots ar very clean, it's just the springs causing the issue. My plan is to remove the springs, and when the magnetic jig comes set the knives up with it holding them in place. Then set my outfeed to them as the outfeed/infeed and cutter head are all parallel

The springs on my machine are so strong that I cannot push the knives very far, even with the supplied jig. The only way for my to set knives is to remove springs and use a magnet jig to hold the blades at the correct height. My planer does not have any height adjustment screws for the blades...

The knives are not set correctly inside the cutter. The little jig that comes with the machine is very difficult use, the the knives have not been set correctly. The outfeed is parallel to the cutter. The only table that had been adjust was the infeed, making it parallel to the outfeed. So the...

Terribly sorry. I'll try andexplain it in the simplest way possible, please forgive me if it sounds patronising, I just want to make sure its all clear :) The tables of the machine both have a 2 thou bow to the middle of them. With my 600mm straightedge, the tables seem to be co-planer...

Unfortunately lifting by the tables was the only way to get it in the shop. But we took care doing it the safest way we could. Yes the knives are plenty sharp I've checked the knives and they are not set even. The tool that comes with the machine is dung and so the blades aren't parallel to...

The board is pretty flat a long most of its length. But I'm getting really unpredictable results from it, sometimes my board is curved, sometimes tapered. By my technique seems fine to those I've asked, and it feels fine to me. How much pressure should I be applying to the board on the outfeed...

I understand it's not ideal. But I'm young and have very small income, so a nice long straightedge is way out of the question for now as I'll be paying off this planet for the next few months at least. He was here for a good 4 hours so it seemed like he put quite a bit of work in

Hey guys. I can't seem to find any info on the issue I am having with my Surface planer (jointer) so had to post. I bought an Axminster AW106PT2 a few weeks ago, and after getting it in the house I noticed that the setup was pretty wack on it. The tables were way out of alignment, and was...
