Knowledge Base : PT260 Safety Microswitches
Please could I have more information on setting up the micro switches on the PT260 planer thicknesser.
When using the PT260 in order for microswitches to register, completing the electrical circuit and therefore allowing the machine to start the dust extraction hoods must be in place. Planing mode
Ensure the table is locked in position with both handles activating the�1st safety micro-switch. The dust extraction hood must be correctly fitted underneath the table to activate the 2nd switch.
Thicknessing�mode
When changing to the thicknessing function make sure that the swing over dust extraction�outlet is fully covering the cutter block thus activating the 3rd micro-switch.
If these guidelines are followed the safety microswitches should present no problems when using the machine.
