Installation and Assembly

Tools required for assembly

Forklift or hoist with straps/slings 14mm (or 9/16”) wrench or socket Cross-point (Phillips) screwdriver 3mm and 5mm hex wrenches (provided)

1.Remove any boards or straps that secure the Jointer to the pallet, and remove protective wrapping.

2.Use a 14mm (or 9/16”) wrench to remove the four lag screws at the base of the stand which helped secure the machine to the pallet. One of these screws is shown in Figure 1.

The Jointer should be raised by straps placed around the four lifting rods (see Figure 2). Do NOT lift the machine directly beneath the infeed and outfeed tables, as this can cause misalignment of the tables.

3.Pull the four lifting rods out as far as they will go and run the straps around the rods as shown in Figure 2. Using a forklift or hoist, lift the machine off the pallet and into its desired location. When the straps are removed, push the lifting rods back in.

4.The Jointer should be located in a dry area, on a sturdy floor, and with sufficient lighting and ventilation. Leave plenty of space around the machine for operations and routine maintenance work.

5.If desired, the Jointer can be further stabilized by securing it to the floor, using lag screws through the four holes at the base of the stand.

The jointer should be disconnected from the power source during assembly procedures.

6.Exposed metal areas of the Jointer, such as the table and fence surfaces, have been factory coated with a protectant. This can be removed with a soft cloth dampened with kerosene or mineral spirits. Do not use an abrasive pad. Do not let solvent contact plastic or rubber parts as it may damage them.

Use caution when cleaning around cutterhead. The knives are extremely sharp.
