Woodstock W1679 instruction manual Beginning, Mounting Jointer, Installing V-Belt

Beginning

Although the main components of the Shop Fox® W1679 are assembled at the factory, some assembly is required. The following series of instructions are the recommended sequence best suited for final assembly.

Make sure that your machine is unplugged during all assembly pro- cedures! If this warning is ignored, serious per- sonal injury may occur.

ASSEMBLY

Mounting Jointer

1.Determine the best place for the jointer in

your shop and place the cabinet stand in that location.

2.With the help of a friend, lift the jointer assembly onto the stand so the cutterhead pulley is positioned directly over the slot in the top of the stand.

3.Align the mounting holes (shown in Figure 10) on the stand to the jointer assembly, and secure the jointer assembly with the (3)

3⁄8" - 16 x 3⁄4" hex bolts and lock washers
from the hardware bag.	Figure 10. Secure table to stand at these locations.

Installing V-Belt

1.Figure 11 shows the jointer motor mount bolts inside of the dust chute. Loosen the nuts so you can slide the motor up and install the V-belt.

2.With the V-belt in the grooves of both the motor pulley and the cutterhead pulley, pull the motor down tightly by hand and tighten one corner bolt.

3.Place your straightedge against the face of both pulleys, and swivel the motor as nec- essary until both pulleys line up with each other. Tighten the other three motor mount bolts.
