2.Attach the table extension wings to the planer table with the M8-1.25 x 30 hex bolts, 8mm lock washers, and 8mm flat washers, as shown in Figure 8, but do not fully tighten the bolts at this time.
3.Using a straightedge as a guide and the set screws for leveling control, position the extension wings even with the table, then fully tighten the hex bolts.
