The Model W1723 is equipped with a stand that can be mounted to a mobile base.

USE helpers or power lifting equipment to lift this planer. Otherwise, serious personal injury may occur.

To assemble the stand and mount the planer, do these steps:

1.Insert (2) two-by-fours into the planer for lifting supports, as shown in Figure 3.

2.Rotate the cutterhead so the knife edges are clear, and lower the cutterhead casting so the (2) two-by-fours are clamped between the table and the cutterhead casting.

3.Layout all stand legs, supports and hardware; and use the 516"-18 x 12" carriage bolts, nuts, and washers from the hardware bag to assemble the stand as shown in Figure 4.

4.Use mechanical lifting equipment or helpers and set the planer on the stand.

5.Secure the planer to the stand at all four corners with the four 516"-18 x 1" hex bolts, four nuts, and eight washers.

The handwheel operates the chain-driven lead screws, which raise and lower the cutterhead to control the cutting depth.

To mount the handwheel and crank, do these steps:

1.Install the key in the shaft, and slide the handwheel onto the shaft.

2.Install the 8mm flat washer and tighten the M10-1.5 hex nut on the end of the shaft. See Figure 5.

3.Thread and tighten the handle into the handwheel to keep the crank locked in place.
