ASSEMBLY

4.With one hand, hold the main table and with the other hand place a machinist’s square on the main table and against the platen graphite pad. See Figure 14.

Get assistance before adjusting this machine any further. Otherwise, you may be injured.

5.Have an assistant loosen both of the main- table tilt levers, and tilt the main-table so the table is perpendicular to the platen as indicated by the machinists square. See

Figure 14.

6.Tighten both main-table tilt lock levers. See

Figure 15.

7.Loosen the pointer screw and set the pointer to zero. See Figure 15.

8.Retighten the pointer screw and make sure the pointer is still pointing to zero.

Make sure the main table is adjusted correctly. Otherwise, your fingers or the workpiece may get trapped between the table and the sanding belt causing serious injury.

9.Slide the main table toward the platen so the table-to-platen gap is no more than 1⁄4" at both ends of the platen. See Figure 16.

10.Tighten the two trunnion 5⁄16"-18 X 1" hex bolts. See Figure 15.
