Beginning Assembly

This section will cover the minimum assembly and adjustment instructions needed to begin operation. For best results, complete the assem- bly in the order provided in this manual and then read the remaining portion of the manual before attempting any type of operations.

Safety must come first! Read and follow these instructions before beginning assembly:

Wear safety glasses dur- ing the entire assembly process. Failure to com- ply may result in serious personal injury.

Disconnect power to the machine when perform- ing all assembly steps. Failure to do this may result in serious person- al injury.

Some metal parts may have sharp edges on them after they are formed. Please examine the edges of all metal parts before handling them. Failure to do so could result in injury.

Most of your 8'' Jointer has been assembled at the factory, but some parts must be assembled or installed after delivery.

TOOLS REQUIRED: You will need a high quality square, a Phillips screwdriver, a long straight- edge, 10mm, 12mm and 14mm open-end wrenches, and a 3mm Allen wrench.
