Assembly
Tools need for assembly:
10mm hex wrench (provided)
1.Remove top and sides of crate from around the machine.
2.Remove the dust hood and the fence assembly from the skid. Reach into the stand and remove the screws securing the stand to the skid.
3.Raise the jointer off the skid with lifting straps. The straps should be suitable to lift
762pounds of weight, and should be placed under the base casting as shown in Figure
1.Do not lift the jointer under the infeed and outfeed tables.
4.The jointer should be placed on a sturdy, level floor in a dry area, with sufficient lighting and ventilation. Leave enough room around the machine for loading and offloading stock and routine maintenance work. The machine can be further stabilized by bolting it to the floor using lag screws through the holes on the inside of the stand.
5.This machine is equipped with noise- reducing table lips. The work site should, however, be one which minimizes reverberant sound from walls, ceilings and other equipment.
6.Exposed metal areas of the jointer, including the table and fence surfaces, have been factory coated with a protectant. This should be removed with a soft cloth dampened with a solvent such as mineral spirits or kerosene. Do not use gasoline, acetone or lacquer thinner, and do not use an abrasive pad. Do not let solvent contact the plastic parts of the machine, as it may damage them.
Fence Installation
1.Use an assistant to help place the fence assembly on top the table, aligning the holes in the fence assembly with the holes in the table base, as shown in Figure 2.
2.Use the two socket head cap screws and two lock washers (Figure 2), and tighten securely with a 10mm hex wrench.
