Figure 16. lifting straps properly positioned.

NOTICE

Make sure the straps do not touch the con-

trol panel pedestal in the next step. also,

make sure they stay under the base and do

not slip to the infeed or outfeed tables to

avoid damaging the machine.

Note: Before the jointer was shipped from the
factory, the infeed table was fully raised and
the stop bolt was threaded up against the bot-
tom of it to safely secure it during transit.

To prevent damaging the table elevation
gearing, you MUST adjust the position of
the infeed stop bolt to the operating position
before attempting to lower the infeed table.

NOTICE

To prevent damage to the table elevation

gearing, NEvER force the table handwheels

if you feel resistance. check the positions

of the stop bolts or for obstructions.

8. loosen the jam nut (see Figure 17) on the

infeed  stop  bolt,  then  unthread  the  stop
bolt  until  the  distance  from  the  top  of  the
bolt  and  the  bottom  of  the  infeed  table  is
the  same  as  the  maximum  depth  of  cut
specified for your jointer (refer to the

Model

make sure they stay in place, then unbolt the
jointer from the shipping pallet.

6. With assistance to steady the load, raise the

jointer just enough to clear the shipping pallet
and any floor obstacles, then move it to the
prepared location.

Note: In the next step, use shims between
the base mounting points and the floor to
avoid warping or cracking the cast iron.

7. as you mount the jointer to the floor, use the

precision level to make sure the table is level
from side-to-side and from front-to-back.
