tion. Conductor size should be in accordance

with the chart below. The amperage rating

should be listed on the motor or tool name-

plate. An undersized cord will cause a drop

in line voltage resulting in loss of power and

overheating. Your extension cord must also

contain a ground wire and plug pin. Always

repair or replace extension cords if they

become damaged.

13. DON’T OVERREACH. Keep proper foot-

ing and balance at all times.

14. MAINTAIN TOOLS WITH CARE. Keep

SECTION 2: CIRCUIT REQUIREMENTS

Grounding

220V Operation

The 3 HP G1033 Planer motor is wired to oper-

ate 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 pur-

chased 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 uncer-

tain 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.

In the event of an electrical short, grounding

reduces the risk of electric shock by providing a

path of least resistance to disperse electric cur-

rent. This tool is equipped with a power cord hav-

ing an equipment-grounding conductor. The out-

let must be properly installed and grounded in

accordance with all local codes and ordinances.

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.

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.

Extension Cords

Figure 1. Twist-lock style 30A connector.

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 exten-

sion 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.

Fusing

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 over-

fused will be repaired or replaced totally at the

customer’s expense, regardless of the present

warranty status.

Unpacking

Parts Inventory

This planer is shipped from the factory in a care-

fully packed carton. If you find the machine to be

damaged after you’ve signed for delivery and the

truck and driver are already gone, you will need

to file a freight claim with the carrier. Save the

containers and all packing materials for inspec-

tion by the carrier or their agent. Without the

packing materials, filing a freight claim can be dif-

ficult. If you need advice regarding this situation,

please call us immediately.

Take a quick inventory of the parts and put them

aside for assembly later. After all the parts have

been removed from the container, you should

have:

• Planer Unit

• Dust Hood

Site Considerations

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 sol-

vent 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 prod-

uct you choose for clean up.

FLOOR LOAD

Your G1033 Planer represents a large weight

load in a small footprint. Most commercial floors

are suitable for the Model G1033. Some residen-

tial floors may require additional build up to sup-

port both machine and operator.

WORKING CLEARANCES

Working clearances can be thought of as the dis-

tances 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 rel-

ative position of each machine to one another for

efficient material handling. Be sure to allow your-

self sufficient room to safely run your machines in

any foreseeable operation.

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 poten-

tial ignition sources when dealing with sol-

vents. Use care when disposing of waste

rags and towels to be sure they do not cre-

ate fire or environmental hazards. Keep chil-

dren and animals safely away when clean-

ing and assembling this machine.

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 exten-

sion cords are not obstructing high-traffic areas.

Be sure to observe local electrical codes for prop-

er installation of new lighting, outlets, or circuits.

Do not use gasoline or other petroleum-

based 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.

Make your shop “child safe”. Ensure that

your workplace is inaccessible to young-

sters by closing and locking all entrances

when you are away. Never allow visitors in

your shop when assembling, adjusting or

operating equipment.

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 regu-

lar screwdriver, metric wrenches, as well as a

feeler gauge for adjustments.

Extension Rollers

Hand Wheel

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:

The hand wheel operates the chain driven sys-

tem which raises and lowers the table to control

cutting depth. To attach the hand wheel:

1. Attach an extension bar to the end of each

roller and secure with the 12mm snap rings

provided.

1. Place the handwheel on the worm gear

shaft and secure with hex nut and washer

provided. See Figure 3.

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.

2. Attach the handle to the handwheel and

tighten hex nut.

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.

Switch

Dust Hood

The magnetic ON/OFF switch supplied with the

Planer is pre-wired to the motor. The remaining

step requires connecting the switch to the plan-

er's head casting. To attach the switch:

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. 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.

1. Match the mounting holes on the dust hood

with the tapped holes on the outfeed end of

the cutterhead casting.

2. Using the socket head cap screws provid-

ed, attach the switch box assembly to the

head casting. See Figure 5.

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

secure the dust hood to the cutterhead

casting. See Figure 4.

The G1033 is shipped without a plug. Now would

be a good time to attach the appropriate plug

specified in Section 2: Circuit Requirements.

See note regarding the use of a dust collector

and chip deflector adjustment in the adjustment

section of this manual.

Do not attempt to make any adjustments to

this machine or perform routine mainte-

nance 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 per-

sonal injury or damage to the planer.

SECTION 5: ADJUSTMENTS

Chain Adjustment

Table Adjustment

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 lev-

eling procedures. To adjust the chain:

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 adjust-

ments, it will be necessary to construct the mea-

surement block ''A''. See page 36 for a full size

print of block ''A''. To adjust the front-to-back dis-

tances:

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.

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.

3. Re-tighten the two locking bolts.

4. Check chain lubrication. Refer to the

Maintenance Section for further details.

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.

Chain Drive

Adjust the chain drive by loosening the chain ten-

sioner 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.

Figure 9. Using block to align cutterhead.

When the front-to-back clearance is within the

.016'' tolerance, tighten the idler sprocket on the

chain drive and tighten the lock bolts.

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 down-

ward 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.

With the front-to-back adjustments made, we can

concentrate on the alignment between the table

and cutterhead. To check table-to-cutterhead

alignment:

REMEMBER: When making adjustments, be

certain to tighten fasteners after each step to

ensure the accuracy of your tests. When adjust-

ing the chain drive, keep in mind that if the chain

becomes too loose, it will fall off of all the sprock-

ets. Returning it to its proper location can be frus-

trating.

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 loos-

ening 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 direc-

tion.

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.

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 lum-

ber 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.

4. Once your roller heights are corrected, re-

tighten the setscrews.

Knife Adjustment

Knife Inspection

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 set-

ting process. To re-align the knives:

The G1033 20" Planer comes equipped with a 4-

knife 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. 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 cut-

terhead, so both ends of the knife receive

equal pressure from the adjuster.

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. The downward pressure provided by the

adjuster will set the knives at a uniform pro-

trusion of approximately .070" above the

cutter. The knife height should vary no

more than .001" across the length of the

cutterhead.

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 caus-

es the adjuster’s legs to not seat on the cut-

terhead, the knives need to be adjusted.

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 stan-

dard adjuster is satisfactory for reasonably

accurate knife setting tasks.

Feed Roller Speed

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 out-

feed rollers:

The infeed and outfeed rollers power the stock

through the planer. They keep boards flat and

provide smooth movement. The power feed fea-

tures 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.

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.

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.

Figure 16. Static chain tensioner adjustment.

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.

Figure 15. Feed speed control.

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.

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.

Spring Tension

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.

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"

Chipbreaker

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 out-

feed rollers. To adjust the pressure bar:

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.

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.

Figure 20. Chipbreaker adjustment.

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).

Figure 21. Pressure bar adjustment.

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).

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 chip-

breaker, 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. 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.

4. Tighten the lock nut in place.

Chip Deflector

Static Chain Adjuster

The chip deflector keeps chips from falling onto

the outfeed roller. To adjust the deflector:

Once the rollers, chip breaker and pressure bar

are properly adjusted, you will need to reset the

static chain tensioner. Proper tensioner adjust-

ment 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. 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 outfeed roller. Make sure that the block

and the roller are in slight contact.

the cutterhead. Move the deflector until the

edge is approximately ⁄16'' from the tip of

the cutting knives. Rotate the cutterhead to

ensure clearance.

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''.

4. Re-tighten the mounting bolts and return

the top cover to the planer.

3. Rotate the static chain tensioner up until

the chain is tight. See Figure 22.

NOTICE

When using a dust collector, it may be nec-

essary to increase the distance from the

cutterhead/knives to the deflector to aid in

chip removal.

Figure 22. Chain tensioner adjustment.

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.

Scale Adjustment

Anti-Kickback Fingers

The Model G1033 provides an anti-kickback sys-

tem as a safety feature. The anti-kickback fingers

hang from a rod suspended across the cutter-

head 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 anti-

kickback fingers. Oil or grease will attract dust,

restricting the free movement of the fingers.

The scale can be adjusted for accuracy. The

machine will need to be run to make proper

adjustments. Follow the directions on the follow-

ing 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 thick-

ness.

2. Move the table to ⁄16'' under the thickness

operator injury.

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 discrep-

ancy, loosen the Allen^®head bolts and

adjust to match your findings. See Figure

SECTION 6: Operations

Test Run

Operational Tips

1. Inspect lumber for defects, warping, cupping,

twisting, and for foreign objects (nails, sta-

ples, 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.

Once the assembly is complete and the adjust-

ments 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 fin-

ger 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.

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.

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!

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.

If noises occur that cannot be found by visual

inspection, feel free to contact our service depart-

ment for help.

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.

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).

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.

G1033 20" Planer

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 com-

pleted.

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 descrip-

tions of defects will give you some possible

answers to problems you may encounter while

planing different materials. Possible solutions fol-

low the descriptions.

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.

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 shal-

low 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 prop-

er alignment. See the Adjustment Section.

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 tol-

erance of .001".

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.

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

on the rollers and cutterhead will cause over-

heating 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.

Glossy Surface - Usually caused by dull knives

taking shallow cuts at a slow feed speed. Surface

gloss will usually be accompanied by overheat-

ing. Often, lumber will be scorched and eventual-

ly, damage to knives will occur. If knives are

sharp on inspection, increase feed speed and/or

cutting depth.

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-uni-

form (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).

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.

SECTION 7: MAINTENANCE

Knife Sharpening

General

Make a habit of inspecting your planer each time

you use it. Check for the following conditions and

repair or replace when necessary.

Knife sharpness is one of the most important fac-

tors 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 con-

tamination can have a very abrasive effect.

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

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.

safe operation of this machine.

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 adjust-

ments. Failure to follow this directive could

result in serious operator injury.

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 geom-

etry is maintained at optimum levels. It is a pro-

cedure 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.

Lubrication

The Model G1033 features factory-sealed bear-

ings. 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.

Fill

Drain

Figure 25. Gear Box drain and fill plugs.

Proper lubrication of other components of the

Model G1033 are essential for long life and trou-

ble-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.

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.

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.

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.

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 need-

ed. 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.

Belt Tension

Belt Alignment

Proper belt alignment prevents premature belt

wear. See Figure 28. Use a straightedge on the

edge of the pulleys to judge alignment.

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.
