Adjusting the Table Top
Raising or lowering the tabletop is controlled by a table height adjuster crank handle, located
on the left front side of the table on the in-feed end of the machine.
 To raise the tabletop, loosen the two (2) adjustment nuts on the holding bolts that are
positioned on all four corners of the frame – eight (8) total.
 Turn the table height adjustor crank clockwise (a left to right motion) to raise the table’s
height.
 When raised to the desired height, position the holding bolts until they come in contact
with the bottom of the table, using the two (2) adjustment nuts.
 To lower the tabletop, repeat the steps above, but turn the table height adjustor crank
counter-clockwise (a right to left motion).
 Re-position the holding bolts and tighten the two (2) adjustment nuts located on each of
the four corners – eight (8) total.

Adjusting for Notch Depth
The cutters can be moved so that notches can be made to the depth you desire.
 For deeper notches, move the four holding bolts down away from the tabletop and lower
the table via the table height adjustor crank (Figure 15, page 15).
 For shallower notches, raise the table height via the table height adjustor crank.
 After adjusting notch depth, move the four (4) holding bolts (one on each corner) so that
they touch the bottom of the tabletop. These holding bolts fully support the table when
completely lowered into the desired notch depth position. (Figure 15, page 15).
Adjusting Notch Location
The cutters can be moved for notching in different locations along the length of the stringer.
 You will first need to raise the tabletop and ensure all wood is removed from the notcher
prior to adjusting the cutters.
 Adjust cutter heads to desired notch spacing by turning the notch location adjustor crank
on the side of the machine (Figure 15, page 15).

The hand crank moves both cutters simultaneously and spaces them the same distance
apart, in or out, from the center of the machine.

Once the cutters are positioned to the desired notch space setting, the weight bars should
be arranged so that the center weight bar is centered between the cutter heads and the
outer weight bars are centered directly over each cutter head (Figure 16).

Weight Bars

Baker Double Notcher - Rev 2, 09/07; WWW.BAKER-ONLINE.COM
17
Adjusting for Material Length
The hopper guide rails are held in place by two (2) mounting bolts, one on each end of the
guides – four (4) total.
 To adjust, loosen and remove the bolts.
 For longer material, move the guide rails outward or away from the cutter heads.
 For shorter material move the guide rails inward or toward the cutter heads.
 Once the desired setting has been made, secure the guide rails by inserting the mounting
bolts and re-tightening them.
Note: The guide rails should be set close to the edge of the material, but not disrupt material
flow or create resistance.

Adjusting for Material Height
The weight bars hold the material down so it is in contact with the table so that the exact
sized notches can be cut. They must be adjusted for stringer/board height.
 Turn the machine off and lock-out / tag-out the electrical panel.
 Unlatch the two (2) protective side panels and lower.
 Unlatch and lift the two (2) top protective panels.
 Two shafts support the weight bars. Loosen the shaft holding nuts on both ends of the
shaft (Figure 18).
 Insert a piece of material you intend to notch in front of the weight bars and move the
shaft up or down so that the weight bars are set at the height of the material.
 Now, lower the shafts so that the tops of the weight bars are 1/2” (13mm) below the top of
material to be notched. This will ensure constant pressure is applied to the material while
processing.
 Retighten the shaft holding nuts on both ends of the shaft (Figure 18).
 Lower and latch the two (2) top protective panels and raise and latch the two (2)
protective side panels.
Note: These steps must be repeated every time stringer/board height needs to be changed.

Adjusting the Width of the Material Bin Hopper
The material bin hopper allows both manual feed and optional descrambler feed to the
pusher to produce notched stringers. Stringers are stacked singularly in the feed bin hopper.
 To properly set the material bin hopper depth, tighten or loosen the adjuster nuts
accordingly.
 The opening between the bin and the backstop should be 1/2” (13mm) greater than the
thickness of the material being fed in order to avoid jamming. For example, if the width of
the material is 1 ½” (38mm), set the bin width or depth to 2” (50mm).

To Begin Processing Material

Complete a visual inspection to ensure all guards/covers are in place and secure.
 Raise tabletop to clear cutter heads prior to starting motors.
 Turn on electrical power via the main electrical panel.
 Turn on air supply.
 Pull up on the ALL STOP button until it illuminates (Figure 20).
 Pull up on the SAW # 1 button to start the first cutter head. Wait until the motor starts and
is running at full speed, then pull up on the SAW # 2 button to start the 2nd cutter head.
 Lower table top to the desired cutting position / depth.
 Turn the feed switch to the ON position.
 If your machine is equipped with a descrambler deck, turn the DESCRAMBLER switch to
the ON position.
 Load the descrambler with material.
Note:If you have a hopper feed, an arrangement of the proximity switches (Page 21) tells
the conveyor to stop when a certain amount of wood is in the hopper. When the wood falls
below a certain level, the conveyor will start feeding the hopper again automatically.
Note: Also always remember to raise the table when shutting off the motors.
