Assembly - Grizzly G0855 Owner's Manual

Assembly

The machine must be fully assembled before it
can be operated. Before beginning the assembly
process, refer to Needed for Setup and gather
all listed items. To ensure the assembly process
goes smoothly, first clean any parts that are cov-
ered or coated in heavy-duty rust preventative (if
applicable).
Straining or crushing injury
may occur from improperly
lifting machine or some of
its parts. To reduce this risk,
get help from other people
and use a forklift (or other
lifting equipment) rated for
weight of this machine.
This jointer is equipped with a mobile base to
allow moving and placing of machine without
power lifting equipment. DO NOT attempt to lift or
move jointer without necessary assistance from
other people. If using power lifting equipment
(such as a forklift or crane), each piece of lifting
equipment must be rated for at least 600 lbs. to
support dynamic loads that may be applied while
lifting.
Review the Power Supply section (see Page 13),
then prepare a permanent location for the jointer.
NOTE: Do not destroy cardboard box or
wood shipping crate and packaging until after
Test Run.
To assemble jointer:
1.
Open cardboard box and place stand upright.
2. Tighten mobile base lock knobs (see Figure 2
on Page 4) to secure stand in position.
