Assembly - Grizzly G0857 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 1000 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.
To assemble jointer:
1. Remove top and sides of shipping crate, then
place small items aside in safe location.
NOTE: Do not destroy crate or packaging
until after Test Run.
2.
If moving and placing jointer without power
lifting equipment, carefully "walk" machine
off the shipping pallet with the help of other
people and roll it to its prepared location.
Proceed to Step 4.

ing equipment, attach (2) lifting hooks to front

Figure 10).
