Re: AD941 Infeed Table Adjustment
|
Brain,
I know the jointer tables are adjustable, but it is not a trivial task.?
Maybe you can do a group survey to see how many people want to have a jointer producing the flat board right after it is delivered to them without any adjustment.
I think what customers want matters the?most, it is 2023. Felder can make money because customers give them money to buy the machine.

Set it how you want it to cut and move on.
Clearly, Felder is proud of their table adjustment mechanism, they think they are the best.?
It is the same mechanism on my?2016 AD741. I just shake my head that Felder still cannot deliver a jointer to produce the FLAT board.
James One more comment.? The Hinge Pin is held in lateral position via set screws on both sides and the top shown in red arrows below.? Those may need to be loosened (especially the top one) in order to get the pin to actually move up/down.? Go easy on these, you don¡¯t want the pin wallowing about like a hotdog in a hallway.? Once you¡¯re done moving the pin up/down, re-secure those set screws.? I really detest this mechanism. ?

I'm curious if anyone has a newer generation AD941 and has been able to adjust the infeed table to be coplanar with the outfeed table. In particular, what seems like it should be a simple adjustment on the hinge side is not working out according to my intuition (but I'm no machinist).<IMG_3456.jpeg><IMG_3455.jpeg>
