Metabo Power Tools HC 260 C Planer / Thicknesser - Setup. Space-Saving Stand for the Electra Beckum HC260 planer/thicknesser.
I recently got a Metabo HC 260c planer thicknesser for squaring some rough sawn wood for a few projects I have coming up. The jointer aspect of the planer works fine, but the thicknesser aspect does not work at all. After a phone call to Metabo, it transpired that the rollers that feed the material have not been properly set and the bolts that set/adjust them have just been finger snugged but not set in any manner, this results in the rollers being below the level of the cutter head, so whilst the material feeds, it doesn't make contact with the blades.
This should have been set in the factory, but wasn't. So there is no part of the user manual that offers instructions in setting this, nor do I have the time to return the machine. Does anyone have any experience with this machine type and know of the correct procedure to set the rollers? Thanks Locks.

I wouldn't say it's cumbersome, once you've done it a few time it can be done in no more than a minute.
It's can be a little tiresome though, if you need to swap back and forth a lot. Though if you plan ahead and get all the jointing done first then all the thicknessing, it's not too bad. The thought of getting my money back had crossed my mind. But since I wanted an all-in-one machine with a degree of portability, there isn't a better option!
The only other option is a cheaper machine that's not as good or a Dewalt which is twice the price and has had some absolutely terrible reviews. I am curious regarding this remark. It has been my experience, and as taught to me by others, that one edge/face of the timber should be planed straight on a planer/jointer or in planer/jointer mode first prior to thicknessing. This straightened edge goes through the Thicknesser on the side opposite the blades. Otherwise the Thicknesser follows the bend/banana of the timber no matter how slight, or if the bend is flipped over more wood than necessary is removed in the thicknessing process and with the bottom curve still remaining. Note on edit.
