Extension Tables

1.Mount a cast iron table to the edge of the main table with three M8 x 25 hex cap screws (Figure 9) using a 12mm wrench. Do not fully tighten yet.

2.The extension table must be leveled with the main table. Place a straight edge (such as a jointed board) across both tables.

3.Insert three socket set screws with a 4mm hex wrench, and screw them in or out as needed until tables are level.

4.Securely tighten the hex cap screws.

5.Mount the second extension table to the opposite side of the planer table, using the same procedure.

Dust Hood

Mount the hood to the rear of the head casting with six M6 x 12 hex cap screws and six 1/4" flat washers (Figure 10), with a 10mm wrench.

It is recommended that you use a dust collection system with this planer. If you are not using a dust collection system, do not attach the dust hood to the planer, as the accumulation of dust inside the hood may create a safety hazard, or eventually cause jamming of the rollers.

Electrical Connections

Electrical connections must be made by a qualified electrician in compliance with all relevant codes. The machine must be properly grounded to help prevent electrical shock and possible fatal injury.

A power plug is not provided with the 209 planer. You may either connect one or "hard- wire" the machine directly to your electrical panel provided there is a disconnect near the machine. Consult electrical schematics on pages 35-37 for further clarification of wiring setup.

This machine must be grounded. Grounding provides a path of least resistance to help divert current away from the operator in case of electrical malfunction.

Make sure the voltage of your power supply matches the specifications on the motor plate of the machine.
