[guypie333]

hi to all.i have recently bought a multico planer.it is used and in good condition.i have been giving it a good coat of looking at, but now i need to use it.i viewed steves presentation on youtube and a few others however i am still slow on the uptake.my machine seems to have more nipples than a little piggy.if i have to buy dedicated instructions cest la vie but if the kind forum members could give me usefull suggestions they would be gratefully recieved.the only number on the machine is l1.cheers guy

What model Multico have you got, because there might be something on the internet about setting it up.

Cheers

Visit this site http://valrosewoodworks.homestead.com/m ... inter.html should tell you more than you need to set up, they are all much the same as each other

hi recky 33 thanks for the tip.my main worry is the outfeed and infeed tables being coplaner.i have seen a youtube clip where the guy adjusts cams to acheive this my machine seems to have none but does have multiple grease nipples either side of the cast table.cheers guy

Try Daltons for a manual.

www.daltonsmachines.com

They don't have one on their download list I could find but emailing them might find you one.

Also search the archives of this forum to see if anyone has mentioned that model.
