3.The stand can be secured to the floor using two anchor bolts (not provided) through the holes inside the bottom of the stand.

Aligning Pulleys

Place a straight edge against the motor pulley and cutterhead pulley to make sure they are aligned. If adjustment is necessary, loosen the set screws in the motor pulley, and slide it as needed until alignment is achieved. Re-tighten set screws.

Mounting Drive Belt

1.Place the belt into the groove of the cutterhead pulley.

2.Reach through the dust chute opening in the side of the stand with a 12mm wrench, and loosen the nuts on the motor mount screws (Figure 6).

3.Lift up on the motor to provide slack, and place the lower end of the drive belt into the motor pulley groove.

4.Let the motor slide down and push down on it until the belt is properly tensioned. NOTE: There should be only moderate deflection in the belt midway between the pulleys when using light finger pressure (Figure 7).

5.Tighten the four hex nuts on the motor mount screws.

Mounting Pulley Guard

Place the pulley guard (A, Figure 8) as shown, and secure with knob (B, Figure 8).

Mounting Dust Chute

It is strongly recommended that a dust collection system (not provided) be connected to the jointer. It will help keep your shop clean, and reduce the risk of health problems due to wood dust. The dust collector should have sufficient capacity for this size jointer.

Place the dust chute over the opening in the jointer stand, and secure with four 1/4-20 x 1/2 pan head screws and four 1/4 flat washers (Figure 9)

Connect a dust collection hose to the dust chute on the jointer and secure it with a hose clamp or duct tape. NOTE: Dryer vent hose is not acceptable for this purpose.
