SECTION 4: ASSEMBLY

Most of your G1128/G1129 Power Feeder has been assembled at the factory, but some parts must be assembled or installed after delivery. We have organized the assembly process into steps. Please follow along in the order presented here.

Note: Read Section 4 in its entirety before begin- ning assembly.

1.(Step 1 for G1129 only) Insert the horizontal shaft through the shaft coupler. The gear rack on the horizontal shaft should engage.

2.Turn the distance adjustment wheel so that the shaft coupler is approximately centered on the horizontal shaft. Turn the height adjustment wheel so that the shaft coupler is approximately centered on the vertical shaft.

3.Attach the pivot joint assembly to the end of the horizontal shaft. Secure with the locking handle.

4.Remove the base by loosening the lock handle. Set the shaft assembly to the side.

5.Find the best mounting location on your woodworking machine. Guidelines:

a.The power feeder should not affect any moving machine parts.

b.It should be as close to the work area as possible, i.e., keep the distance between the base and rollers to a minimum.

c.Test the location by temporarily mounting the base on a stable piece of hardwood which is clamped to the machine. Swing the power feeder in a variety of positions to ensure that the base is best suited to your anticipated needs.

WARNING: DO NOT ATTEMPT TO OPERATE THE POWER FEEDER UNTIL IT IS PERMA- NENTLY MOUNTED TO THE TABLE TOP! MOUNTING THE POWER FEEDER TO YOUR MACHINE WILL MAKE IT TOP HEAVY. SECURELY ATTACH YOUR MACHINE TO THE FLOOR OF YOUR SHOP.

6.Use the base as your template and mark the outside perimeter of the base and the loca- tions of the four bolt holes on your table.

7.Measure the distances of the four mounting holes from the edges of the table with an accurate ruler. Compare those measure- ments with the bottom of the table. Ensure that the mounting holes will not be over the cast braces on the underside of the table.

8.Drill 38" diameter holes through your table. Use 516" through bolts of sufficient length with flat and lock washers to attach the base. They will provide added support.

9.Re-insert the shaft assembly into the base. Orient the horizontal shaft properly. Tighten the lock handle.

G1129 ONLY: Tighten the cap screw on the base to inhibit spinning of the vertical shaft.

10.Mount the motor/wheel assembly to the pivot joint assembly.

G1128: Screw the lower lock handle into the hole on the wheel housing.

G1129: Remove the handle and screw from the motor clamp assembly (MCA). Place the outer half of the MCA off to one side. Position the motor/wheel assembly so the MCA clamps around the bottom of the motor. Replace the outer half of the MCA. Tighten securely with the handle and screw.
