Description
The PF3-JR Stock Feeder can be mounted to a table saw, shaper, jointer, etc., and will act as a “third
hand” for the operator to smoothly feed workpieces through the auxiliary machine. The Stock Feeder has
a continuous-duty motor and lubricated gearbox that transmit power through roller chain and sprockets to
the feed rollers, providing superior positive feeding for all types of materials. The stand is fully adjustable
with universal joints, and heavy locking mechanisms secure the feeder in horizontal, vertical or angled
positions. The roller system is “maintenance-friendly” allowing you to replace a single roller if necessary,
instead of a complete set.

Assembly and Installation
Tools needed for assembly:
5mm hex wrench
12mm and 14mm open end wrenches
Remove the clear plastic from around the feeder
and stand.
Exposed metal surfaces have been given a
protective coating at the factory. This should be
removed with a soft cloth moistened with a good
commercial solvent, such as kerosene or
mineral spirits. Do not use acetone, gasoline, or
lacquer thinner for this purpose. Do not get
solvents near plastic or rubber parts, and do not
use an abrasive pad because it may scratch
metal surfaces.
The Stock Feeder should be mounted to an
auxiliary machine in a well-lit area. Leave
enough space around the work area for loading
and off-loading stock and general maintenance.
The stock feeder and the
auxiliary machine to which you are mounting
it should both be disconnected from power
during installation.
1. Determine the mounting location for the
stand. Keep in mind the overall length of the
horizontal arm on the stand (27-1/2”) so that
there will be enough adjustment when the
Stock Feeder is mounted.
IMPORTANT: Locate the stand so that you
will not drill through any ribs or supports
beneath the table surface.
2. Use the provided boring template to find the
centerline spacing for the holes in the
feeder’s base. Clean the mounting surface,
then remove the backing from the boring
template and stick the template carefully
into place on the mounting surface.
NOTE: The same template can be found on
page 25.
3. Center punch and drill four 8.5 millimeter
diameter holes in the surface, then tap the
holes with M10 x P1.5 threads. Alternatively,
if you plan to secure the stand with hex nuts
from below the mounting surface, drill
clearance holes of 7/16” diameter without
tapping.
4. Peel off the boring template and discard.
5. Loosen the lock handle and remove the
base from the stand assembly, shown in
Figure 1.
Figure 1

6. Place the base over the hole pattern. Align
the four holes of the base with the holes in
the mounting surface. Make sure the lock
handle is positioned in a convenient place
before tightening the base to the mounting
surface.
7. Insert four M10 screws (not provided)
through the holes of the base and into the
holes on the mounting surface. See Figure
2. Tighten screws securely.
8. The stand assembly can be oriented with
either of the columns in horizontal or vertical
position. It is recommended, however, that
the longer lead screw be placed in the
horizontal position, as shown in Figure 3;
this will allow maximum adjustment for the
stock feeder across the surface of the
workpiece. Slide the vertical column down
into the base and tighten the lock handle
(Figure 3).
Figure 2
9. Attach a handle (Figure 4) to each elevating
handle, by screwing the threads of the
handle into the hole on the elevating handle.
10. The handle (Figure 4) should be adjusted so
that it can move freely. Loosen the hex nut
with a 14mm (9/16”) wrench, and turn the
socket head cap screw with a 5mm hex
wrench until the handle is just loose enough
to turn freely. Then tighten the hex nut
against the elevating handle.
Figure 3
11. Rest the Stock Feeder on the mounting
surface, as shown in Figure 5. Lower the
horizontal arm by rotating the top hand
wheel until the arm is at a convenient height
for mounting the Stock Feeder. (See “Basic
Feeder/Stand Movements” for detailed
explanation of stand movements.)
12. Make sure the hex cap screw (A, Figure 5)
is loosened on the sleeve of the Stock
Feeder. Use a 14mm wrench.
13. Slide the arm cone of the Stock Feeder onto
the horizontal arm as far as it will go, then
tighten the hex cap screw (A, Figure 5).

Grounding Instructions
Electrical connections must
qualified electrician in
be made by
a
compliance with all relevant codes. This
machine must be properly grounded to help
prevent electrical shock and possible fatal
injury.
This Stock Feeder must be grounded. In the
event of a malfunction or breakdown, grounding
provides a path of least resistance for electric
current to reduce the risk of electric shock. This
tool is equipped with an electric cord having an
equipment-grounding
conductor
and
a
grounding plug similar to the one shown in
Figure 6. The plug must be plugged into a
matching outlet that is properly installed and
grounded in accordance with all local codes and
ordinances.
Figure 6
Do not modify the plug provided. If it will not fit
the outlet, have the proper outlet installed by a
qualified electrician.
Improper connection of the equipment-
grounding conductor can result in a risk of
electric shock. The conductor, with insulation
having an outer surface that is green with or
without yellow stripes, is the equipment-
grounding conductor. If repair or replacement of
the electric cord or plug is necessary, do not
connect the equipment-grounding conductor to a
live terminal.
Check with a qualified electrician or service
personnel if the grounding instructions are not
completely understood, or if in doubt as to
whether the tool is properly grounded. Use only
three wire extension cords that have three-prong
grounding plugs and three-pole receptacles that
accept the tool’s plug.
Repair or replace a damaged or worn cord
immediately.
115 Volt Operation
As received from the factory, your Stock Feeder
is ready to run at 115 volt operation. It is
intended for use on a circuit that has an outlet
and a plug that looks similar to the one
illustrated in Figure 6.
A temporary adapter, which looks like the
adapter as illustrated in Figure 7, may be used
to connect this plug to a two-pole receptacle, as
shown in Figure 7, if a properly grounded outlet
is not available. The temporary adapter should
only be used until a properly grounded outlet
can be installed by a qualified electrician. This
adapter is not applicable in Canada.

Unplug the stock feeder from
power source before changing gears.
To change the position of the gears:
1. Unscrew the knob (Figure 11) and pull off
the back cover to expose the gear system,
shown in Figure 12.
2. Remove hex nuts and flat washers (A,
Figure 12) with a 14mm wrench.
3. Figure 13 shows the relationship of gear
position to create each of the four speeds. A
similiar chart is affixed to the inside of the
back cover on the Stock Feeder.
4. Install new gear configuration, making sure
the notch in each gear slides into the
keyway of the shaft. Push the gear as far as
it will go onto the shaft.
Figure 12

Operating Controls
The control switch (Figure 14) turns the motor
on, and also determines its direction – forward
or reverse.
If a jam should occur while
feeding a workpiece, DO NOT turn the stock
feeder to reverse while the auxiliary machine
is still running in forward direction.
If a workpiece becomes jammed, turn off both
the auxiliary machine and the stock feeder.
Raise the feeder in order to clear the workpiece.
Then reset the feeder height and begin the feed
over again.
Figure 14
Operation
IMPORTANT: Before attempting operation of
this stock feeder in conjunction with an auxiliary
machine, you should be thoroughly familiar with
the operating and safety instructions that were
included with the auxiliary machine.
Keep hands away from
rollers during operation. Failure to comply
may cause injury.
General Operating Instructions
1. Make sure all lock handles are tight before
operating the Stock Feeder.
2. The Stock Feeder should be used in
conjunction with a fence on your auxiliary
machine.
3. The rollers must grip the offcut, as well as
the part of the workpiece still being fed.
4. On some machines, such as a shaper, the
stock feeder can be mounted so that the
rollers exert pressure from the top; or
mounted edgewise so that the rollers exert
pressure from the side, or mounted at an
intermediate angle for beveled workpieces.
5. The feed rollers have a spring suspension
with approximately 12mm lift, which will
exert the necessary pressure against the
workpiece.
This
pressure
increases
automatically with feed resistance, so that a
workpiece of varying thickness can be fed
through
the
stock
feeder
without
adjustments.
14
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.
6. When used in normal horizontal position,
the stock feeder should be adjusted for
height so that the distance between the
table and the feed rollers is approximately
1/8” to 3/16” (3 to 5mm) less than the
thickness of the workpiece. See Figure 15.
Although the stock feeder
when properly used will greatly reduce the
chance of workpiece kickback, there is still a
potential for kickback. Never stand directly
in the path of the workpiece as it passes
under the Stock Feeder rollers.
Figure 15
When Used with a Shaper
1. The gap between the fences for the cutter
should be as small as possible.
2. To ensure that the workpiece is held firmly
against the fence, set the stock feeder at a
slight angle toward the fence in the direction
of feed. In other words, the outfeed roller
should be approximately 3/16” (5mm) closer
to the fence than the infeed roller. See
Figure 16.
3. When the Stock Feeder is in edgewise
position, it must be inclined slightly towards
the work table in the direction of feed, to
ensure the workpiece remains forced down
against the table. In other words, the
outfeed roller should be approximately 3/16”
closer to the work table than the infeed
roller. See Figure 17.
Figure 16
(Stock Feeder in horizontal position)
4. When the Stock Feeder is in the edgewise
position, or angled for a beveled workpiece,
the axis of the cutter should be between the
outfeed roller and the center roller. See
Figure 17. The center roller should NOT be
directed toward the opening between the
fences, but should act directly against the
fence.
5. When mounting the Stock Feeder in
edgewise position, keep in mind the spring
tension of the rollers. The distance between
the shaper fence and the feed rollers should
be approximately 1/8” to 3/16” (3 to 5mm)
less than the thickness of the workpiece
(refer to Figure 15).
Figure 17
(Stock Feeder in edgewise position)
6. Shaping hardwood with the Stock Feeder
may increase the friction between workpiece
and table. Keep the work table rust-free and
smooth, by using paste wax or other
necessary means.
15
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.
When Used with a Table Saw
1. Position the Stock Feeder so that the axis of
the saw blade lines up between the center
roller and infeed roller. See Figure 18. This
will allow the Stock Feeder to grip the offcut
of the workpiece as it leaves the blade.
2. Rotate the Stock Feeder so that the
direction of feed is angled slightly toward the
fence by approximately 3/16” (5mm); that is,
the outfeed roller should be slightly closer to
the fence than the infeed roller. See Figure
18.
Figure 18
When Used with a Jointer
1. Mount the stock feeder on a jointer so that
all rollers are over the outfeed table, as
shown in Figure 19.
2. The infeed roller should be approximately
3/16” away from the lip of the outfeed table
at the cutter area. See Figure 19.
3. Rotate the Stock Feeder so that the
direction of feed is angled slightly toward the
fence by approximately 3/16” (5mm); that is,
the outfeed roller should be slightly closer to
the fence than the infeed roller. See Figure
19.
Figure 19
Roller Removal/Replacement
If more space is needed between rollers, for
example when feeding a curved workpiece, the
center roller can be removed from the Stock
Feeder. To remove the roller, loosen and
remove the two socket head cap screws (Figure
20) with a 5mm hex wrench and pull the roller
off the shaft.
Figure 20
Maintenance
Before performing any
maintenance
on
the
Stock
Feeder,
disconnect its plug from the electrical
supply. Also disconnect the auxiliary
machine from the electrical supply. Failure to
comply may cause serious injury.
If the power cord is worn, cut, or damaged in
any way, have it replaced immediately.
The rubber rollers should be kept clean of
grease, sawdust and other debris. Use a soft
cloth with soap and water to wipe down the
rollers. DO NOT use a solvent on the rubber
rollers.

The mating parts of the arm cone and swivel
cone should be kept clean. See Figure 21.
When disassembling any of the cones from the
stock feeder, wipe off both mating parts with a
clean rag before re-assembling. NOTE: These
cones are subject to high torques and it may be
necessary to periodically re-tighten the lock
handles until the cone surfaces become
securely seated.
Figure 21
Lubrication
Gearbox
The Stock Feeder is shipped with oil installed in
the gearbox. Occasionally check the oil level
and add oil if necessary. The oil level should be
approximately 1-1/2” deep; that is, about 1” from
the rim of the hole. Completely drain and refill
the oil every 1,000 working hours, or every 6
months, with a good quality gear oil.
To change the oil:
1. Loosen the screw (A, Figure 5) which holds
the feeder body to the horizontal arm.
Figure 22
2. Carefully remove the feeder body from the
horizontal arm.
3. Unscrew and remove the oil cap (identified
in Figure 22) and turn the feeder body
upside down to completely drain the oil.
(NOTE: Always dispose of used oil
properly.)
4. Turn feeder body right side up, and pour
new oil into the fill hole, until it is about 1”
from the rim.
5. Re-install the oil cap (Figure 22).
Rollers
Each of the three rollers has a grease fitting
(Figure 23) located in the hub center. Use a
grease gun to insert a good quality, all-purpose
grease into these fittings every 200 working
hours, or every 30 days.
