Hi Paul,
?
Have you lubricated or waxed the platen recently?? I had
a similar problem some years ago with my Inca jointer/planer which suddenly just
quit feeding.? After a whole lot of headscratching and much desperation, I
put what seemed like a half can of Waxi-lit on the platen and voila, it was
feeding like a charm.? In the Inca's case, at least, the very smooth platen
and partially surfaced board produced enough drag to overcome the feed
mechanism.
