Assembly
To assemble your planer:

the bottom of the wings (see Figure 8).
Hex Bolts &
Flat Washers

G0454 shown).
2. Attach the table extension wings to the planer
table with the M8-1.25 x 30 hex bolts, 8mm
lock washers, and 8mm flat washers, as
shown in Figure 8, but do not fully tighten the
bolts at this time.
3.
Using a straightedge as a guide and the
set screws for leveling control, position the
extension wings even with the table, then
fully tighten the hex bolts.
Note: Be aware that the bed rollers will give
you a false reading with your straightedge if
they are raised above the table. Move them
down or work around them when leveling the
extension wings.
