on the base. If using a mobile base, be sure to lock the wheels.
Eye protection. Always wear approved safety goggles, glasses, or a face shield when operating this
machine. NOTE: Common eyeglasses are only impact resistant, they are not safety glasses. Also use
face or dust mask if the cutting operation is dusty.
Dress code. Do not wear loose clothing, neckties, jewelry, or gloves that can get caught in moving parts.
Confine long hair. Keep sleeves above the elbow.
Placement. Place machine so that potential kickback area is not in line with aisles, doorways, wash
stations or other work areas. Do not use machine in a damp or wet location, or expose to rain. Keep work
area well lighted.
Electrical grounding. Your machine must be electrically grounded. If a cord and plug are used, make
certain the grounding lug connects to a suitable ground. Follow the grounding procedure indicated by the
National Electrical Code.
Guards. Be sure machine guards are in place and in good working order. Do not operate while gear
cover is open. If a guard must be removed for adjustments or maintenance, it should be reinstalled
immediately upon completion of the procedure and before operating the machine.
Housekeeping. Before turning on machine, remove all extra equipment such as keys, wrenches, scrap,
stock, and cleaning rags from the machine. Keep the area around machine clean and free of scrap
material and sawdust to minimize the danger of slipping.
Power off. Make sure the machine is either unplugged or electrically disconnected and locked out when
performing maintenance or service work. Also, make sure switch is in OFF position before plugging in
power cord. Never leave the machine running unattended. Do not leave machine until it comes to a
complete stop.

Receiving
Carefully unpack the planer and any loose items
from the wood crate and inspect for damage. Any
damage should be reported immediately to your
distributor and shipping agent. Before proceeding
further, read your manual thoroughly to familiarize
yourself with proper assembly, maintenance and
safety procedures.
Remove the screws that hold the planer to the
shipping skid. Remove the protective coating from
the table, bed rolls, feed rolls, cutterhead and
loose items packed with the machine, including
lifting handles and motor pulley. This coating may
be removed with a soft cloth moistened with
Kerosene. Do not use acetone, gasoline or
lacquer thinner for this purpose. Do not use
solvents on plastic parts.

Use care when cleaning the

cutterhead; the knives are very sharp.

Installation & Assembly

1. There are four lifting handles (Fig. 3) on the
machine. Pull the handles out for use, push in
when not in use.
2. If a sling or forklift is used to lift the machine,
be sure to lift by the handles only. See Fig. 3.
Make sure machine is kept in level position
while lifting.
3. For best planing performance, locate planer
on a solid, level foundation and anchor to the
floor with good quality lag screws. Do not
Figure 3
tighten screws completely yet.
4. With machine in position, test table surface
lengthwise and crosswise with machinist’s
level. Place metal shims under low corners.
5. Check that all four corners are supported,
then tighten lag screws.
6. Re-test level of table surface in both directions
and adjust if necessary.

Starter Box
Mount the starter box at the left side of the
machine with two socket head cap screws (Fig. 4).

Figure 4

Handwheel
1. Remove the nut and washer from the gearbox
shaft, and place the handwheel onto the shaft
(Fig. 5), making sure it is oriented so the
handwheel slips over the key.
2. Place flat washer and hex nut on shaft and
tighten with wrench.
3. Mount the handle in the threaded hole in the
handwheel, and tighten with a wrench placed
over the flat on the handle. Figure 5

Table Extension Rollers (JWP-208

only)
Mount the table extension rollers to the table using
the provided hex cap screws and washers
(A, Fig. 6). The rollers should be adjusted before
operating the planer; see Adjusting Table
Extension Rollers on page 11.

Extension Tables (JWP-208HH only)

1. Mount a cast iron table to the edge of the Figure 6 - JWP-208 only
main table with three M8 x 25 hex cap screws
(Figure 6a). Do not fully tighten yet.
2. The extension table must be leveled with the
main table. Place a straight edge (such as a
jointed board) across both tables.
3. Insert three socket set screws with a hex
wrench, and screw them in or out as needed
until tables are level.
4. Securely tighten the hex cap screws.
5. Mount the second extension table to the
opposite side of the planer table, using the
same procedure.
6. Figure 6a - JWP-208HH only

Dust Collection Hood

The dust collection hood (Fig. 6b) comes standard
with the model JWP-208 planer, and helps
maintain a clean and safe work area. It is
assembled to the planer with the screws and
washers as shown.

IMPORTANT: Make sure all knives or knife

inserts are tight before operating machine. On
the helical head model, verify tightness of
each insert (re-torque) before using the
machine for the first time. Figure 6b

8
Electrical Connections
Electrical connections must be
made by a qualified electrician in compliance
with all relevant codes. The machine must be
properly grounded to help prevent electrical
shock and possible fatal injury.
A power plug is not provided with the 208 planer.
You may either connect one or "hard-wire" the
machine directly to your electrical panel provided
there is a disconnect near the machine. Consult
the wiring diagrams on pages 32-35 for further Figure 7
clarification of wiring setup.
This machine must be grounded. Grounding
provides a path of least resistance to help divert
current away from the operator in case of
electrical malfunction.
Make sure the voltage of your power supply
matches the specifications on the motor plate of
the machine.

Extension Cords
The use of extension cords is discouraged; try to
position the machine within reach of the power
source. If an extension cord becomes necessary,
make sure the cord rating is suitable for the
amperage listed on the machine's motor plate. An
undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage
resulting in loss of power and overheating.
The chart in Figure 7 shows the correct size cord
to use based on cord length and motor plate amp
rating. If in doubt, use the next heavier gauge. The
smaller the gauge number the heavier the cord.

Figure 8

Adjustments
Belt and Pulleys
1. Using a straight edge, align the motor pulley
(A, Fig. 8 ) and cutterhead pulley (B, Fig. 8).
The motor plate can be moved for alignment
by loosening the set screws (C, Fig. 9) in the
motor plate.

Figure 9
9
2. Check belt tension. Proper tension is obtained
when there is approximately 1/4” deflection of
the center span of the pulleys using light
finger pressure (Fig. 10).

Figure 10

3. If adjustment of belt tension is necessary,

loosen one pair of hex nuts (E & F, Fig. 11)
and turn the other pair to raise or lower the
motor plate. Re-tighten nuts.

Figure 11

Table Rollers
Overview
Your planer is supplied with two table rollers
(A, Fig. 12) which turn as the stock is fed into the
planer, thus reducing friction. It is not possible to
give exact dimensions on the proper height setting
of the table rollers because each type of wood
behaves differently.
As a general rule, however, when planing rough
stock, the table rollers should be set at high
position. When planing smooth stock the rollers
should be set at low position.
Figure 12

10
Note: When raising the roller higher above the
table, the available range is from .003” to .006”
See Fig. 13.

Figure 13

The table rollers are factory set for average

planing and are parallel to the table surface. If you
desire to adjust the table rollers higher or lower,
proceed as follows:
1. Disconnect machine from power source.
2. Lay a straight edge (B, Fig. 14) across both
rollers.
3. On one side of the table, loosen the screws
(C, Fig. 14) with a hex wrench, and turn the
eccentric shafts (D, Fig. 14) to raise or lower
the rollers.
4. When the proper height is achieved, tighten
screws (C, Fig. 14).
Figure 14
5. Adjust the rollers from the opposite side of the
table in the same manner.

Important: Be sure that the height of front and

rear rollers are the same. The table rollers must
always be set parallel to the table.

Adjusting Table Extension Rollers

1. Place a straight edge over the extension roller
and the table, as shown in Fig. 15, to make
sure the extension roller and table are at the
same height. If necessary, adjust the table
extension rollers as follows:
2. Loosen the screws and washers (A, Fig. 15)
to move the extension roller to the proper
position, then retighten the screws. Figure 15
3. Adjust both front and rear extension rollers in
the same manner.

11
Adjusting Depth of Cut
The cutting depth scale (A, Fig. 16) is a
combination inch/metric scale with a cutting range
from 0 to 8” (204mm). The distance of upward or
downward movement is controlled by the
handwheel (B, Fig. 16). One revolution of the
handwheel is .059” (1.5mm). Before moving the
table up or down, loosen the lock nuts (C, Fig. 16).
After obtaining the proper table position, tighten
the lock nuts (C, Fig. 16).

Always tighten the lock nuts

before operating the planer.
Figure 16
Cutterhead Adjustment
Overview
Although your planer was carefully adjusted at the
factory, it should be checked before being put into
operation. Any inaccuracies due to rough handling
in transit can easily be corrected by following
these directions.
To check the adjustments you will need a straight
edge, feeler gauge, and a homemade gauge block
made of hardwood. This gauge block can be
made by following the dimensions shown in
Figure 17.
Knife Adjustment (Model JWP-208 only)
When checking or adjusting the cutterhead knives,
proceed as follows:
1. Disconnect machine from power source.
2. Remove the six screws (A, Fig. 18) and
remove upper cover (B, Fig. 18).
Figure 17
3. To check and adjust knives, use the provided
knife gauge (Fig. 19 & 20) and check all four
knives. Knives should just contact the bottom
of the center protrusion (D, Fig. 19) of the
knife gauge.
4. If an adjustment to one or more of the knives
is necessary, slightly loosen the knife gib
(E, Fig. 19) by turning the six locking screws
(F, Fig. 19) into the gib. Turn the screws just
enough to relieve stress in the cutterhead
without disturbing the setting of the knives. Do
this for all four knives at the same time.
5. With the gauge in place over a knife
(G, Fig. 19) continue to loosen the locking
screws (F, Fig. 19) until the springs
(H, Fig. 19) begin raising the knife. When knife
comes into contact with the center protrusion Figure 18
(D, Fig. 19) of the gauge, snug up the gib by
lightly backing out the six locking screws (F,
Fig. 19) against the slot.

12
 NOTE: At this time, only tighten the knife in
the slot just enough to hold knife in position.
6. If additional knives must be reset, repeat
step 5.
7. After all four knives are set with screws just
snug, back out and tighten the six locking
screws (F, Fig. 19 & 20), against the slot
starting with the end screws first, then the
center screws, until the knife is securely held
in the cutterhead. Tighten remaining three
knives in the same manner.
Important: Double check all screws for tightness.

Replacing & Resetting Knives (Model

JWP-208 only)
If the knives are removed for sharpening, care
must be exercise in replacing and resetting them.
Proceed as follows:
1. Disconnect machine from power source.
2. Remove six screws and upper cover (see
Fig. 18).
3. To remove knife, loosen the gib (E, Fig. 19) by Figure 19 – JWP-208 only
turning the six locking screws (F, Fig. 19) into
the gib. Remove gib (E, Fig. 19), knife (G, Fig.
16) and springs (H, Fig. 19). NOTE: The inner
two springs may pop out when the knife and
gib are removed.
4. Remove the remaining three knives in the
same manner.
5. Thoroughly clean the knife slots, gibs, springs
and locking screws. Check the locking screws;
if the threads appear worn or stripped or if the
heads are becoming rounded, replace them.
6. Inspect the cutting edge of the knives for nicks
or wire edge. Hone the knives slightly using a
stone, or if the knives are to be sharpened,
maintain a cutting angle of 35 degrees.
7. Insert springs, knives and gib into slot of Figure 20 – JWP-208 only
cutterhead. Back out locking screws just
enough to hold the knife in the cutterhead.
8. Place knife gauge (C, Fig. 19) over knife.
9. While holding down on the knife gauge,
loosen all six locking screws (F) by turning
them into the gib (E) until cutting edge of knife
comes into contact with the protrusion (D) of
the gauge. Snug up the gib by slightly backing
out the six locking screws against the slot.
Note: At this time, only tighten the knife into the
slot just enough to hold the knife in position.

13
10. Replace and reset the other three knives in
the same manner.
11. After all four knives are set with the screws
just snug, back out and tighten the six screws
(F) against the slot starting with the end
screws first and then the center screws until
the knife is securely held in the cutterhead.
Tighten the remaining three knives in the
same manner.

After replacing and checking

knives, CHECK AGAIN carefully. Make certain
the direction of knives is correct and all
twenty-four locking screws are tightened
securely.

Replacing or Rotating Knife Inserts

(Model JWP-208HH only)
The knife inserts on the model JWP-208HH are
four-sided. When dull, simply remove each insert,
rotate it 90° for a fresh edge, and re-install it.
Use the provided star point screwdriver to remove
the knife insert screw. See Figure 20a. It is
advisable to rotate all inserts at the same time to
maintain consistent cutting. However, if one or
more knife inserts develops a nick, rotate only
those inserts that are affected.
Each knife insert has an etched reference mark so
you can keep track of the rotations.
Figure 20a – JWP-208HH only
IMPORTANT: When removing or rotating inserts,
clean saw dust from the screw, the insert, and the
cutterhead platform. Dust accumulation between
these elements can prevent the insert from
seating properly, and may affect the quality of the
cut.
Before installing each screw, lightly coat the screw
threads with machine oil and wipe off any excess.
Securely tighten each screw which holds the knife
inserts before operating the planer!

Make sure all knife insert

screws are tightened securely. Loose inserts
can be propelled at high speed from a rotating
cutterhead, causing injury.

Checking Work Table Parallel to

Cutterhead
The work table is set parallel to the cutterhead at
the factory and no further adjustment should be
necessary. If your machine is planing a taper, first
check to see if the knives are set properly in the
cutterhead. Then check to see if the work table is
set parallel to the cutterhead. Proceed as follows:
14
1. Disconnect machine from power source.
2. Place the gauge block (Figure 21) on the work
table directly under the edge of a knife or knife
insert as shown. Make slight contact with the
knife edge by gently raising the table.
3. Move the gauge block to the opposite end of
the work table. The distance from the work
table to the edge of the knife should be the
same on both ends of the knife.

Adjusting Work Table Parallel to

Cutterhead
If the work table is not parallel to the cutterhead,
perform the adjustment procedure as follows: Figure 21
1. Disconnect the machine from power source.
2. Tilt planer on its side to expose underside of
base, as shown in Fig. 22.
3. Remove bolt (A, Fig. 22) and loosen bolt (B,
Fig. 22) which will allow you to move the idler
sprocket assembly (C, Fig. 22) far enough to
release tension on the chain.
4. Remove chain from the particular sprocket on
corner of base that must be adjusted.
Turn the sprocket by hand to bring that corner
into adjustment with the other three corners.
NOTE: Turning sprocket clockwise will
increase the distance between the working
table and headcasting; counter-clockwise will
decrease the distance. This adjustment is very
sensitive and it should not be necessary to
turn the sprocket more than one or two teeth.
5. When adjustments are correct, replace chain
around corner sprocket, slide sprocket (C, Fig.
22) back to re-tension chain, tighten bolt (B, Figure 22
Fig. 22) and replace and tighten bolt (A, Fig.
22).

Know the Transmitting Rollers of Your Planer

A – Anti-Kickback Fingers
B – Infeed Roller
C – Chipbreaker
D – Cutterhead
D – Pressure Bar
E – Outfeed Roller
The infeed roller (B, Fig. 23) and outfeed roller
(F, Fig. 23) are those parts of your planer that feed
the stock while it is being planed. The infeed and
outfeed rollers are under spring tension and this
tension must be sufficient to feed the stock
uniformly through the planer without slipping but
should not be so tight that it causes damage to the
board. The tension should be equal at both ends
of each roller. Figure 23

Anti-Kickback Fingers
The anti-kickback fingers (A, Fig 23) help prevent
kickback of stock. They operate by gravity and it is
necessary to inspect them occasionally to make
sure they are free of gum and pitch, so that they
move independently and operate correctly.

Adjusting Infeed & Outfeed Roller

Spring Tension
To adjust the spring tension of the infeed and
outfeed rollers, turn screws (G & H, Fig. 24) with a
hex wrench. Turn screws on opposite end of

If an adjustment to the infeed roller, chipbreaker,
pressure bar or outfeed roller is necessary, use
the following steps as an example of procedure.
To check and adjust the outfeed roller below the
cutting circle, proceed as follows:
1. Disconnect machine from power source.
2. Make sure the knives are adjusted properly
as previously explained under “Checking &
Adjusting of Knives.”
3. Place the gauge block (J, Fig. 26) on the
table directly underneath the cutterhead (D, Figure 26

5. Check and adjust opposite end of the outfeed

Return Rollers
The two return rollers on the top of the
machine serve as a convenient rest for
stock. They save time and motion for the
operator as the stock is returned to the
infeed side.

Figure 27

Feed Speed Control

Your machine is equipped with a spiral, serrated
infeed roller and a solid outfeed roller. When the
feed rollers are engaged, they turn to feed the
stock. The feed rollers slow automatically when
the machine is under heavy load for best planing
in all conditions. The feed rollers are driven by Figure 28
chains (A, Fig. 28) and sprockets (B, Fig. 28)
which take power directly from the cutterhead
through the oil bath gear box (C, Fig. 28).
The gear box has two feed speeds. These are
set by pulling out or pushing in the shift lever (D,
Fig. 28) while the machine is running. The feed
speed range is shown in Fig. 29.

Changing Accessories for Lowest

Feed Speed
The lowest feed speed for your planer (16.2 fpm
& 20.7 fpm) can be obtained by replacing the
lower (gear shaft) sprocket and the chain. See
Fig. 29. To change the sprocket and the chain
on your machine, proceed as follows:
1. Disconnect machine from power source.
2. Remove the three hex cap screws and
washers (E, Fig. 28).
3. Remove the three sprockets (B, Fig. 28)
from the infeed roller, outfeed roller and the Figure 29
gear shaft at the same time.

Periodically check all the chains for proper

Tip: If a foreign object nicks the knives, instead of
throwing them away or trying to grind out the
deep nick, simply stagger the knives in the head,
moving one knife no more than 1/4" to the right
and another knife no more than 1/4" to the left.
The nick should no longer be noticeable.
The table should be kept clean and free of rust.
Some users prefer a paste wax coating. Another
option is talcum powder applied with a
blackboard eraser rubbed in vigorously once a
week; this will fill casting pores and form a
Figure 30
moisture barrier. This method provides a table
top that is slick and allows rust rings to be easily
wiped from the surface. Important also is the fact
that talcum powder will not stain wood or mar
finishes as wax pickup does.
