Installation and Assembly
Tools required:
10, 11 and 13mm wrenches
Remove the screws holding the base of the machine to the skid, and lift the planer/molder off the skid.
The machine area should be clean, dry, well ventilated, and well lighted. Since planers can create noise problems, the site selection should be one which minimizes reverberant sound from walls, ceilings and other equipment. The machine’s wheels should be in the locked position prior to use.
