Rotating Column - Grizzly G0645 Owner's Manual

Rotating Column

The head and column assembly can be adjusted
for mortising off of the base—this will allow
the mortising machine to accommodate a taller
workpiece.
To rotate the column 180°:
1. With assistance, remove the four hex bolts
and washers securing the column to the
base, and set the column and headstock
aside.
2. Remove the hardware mounting the base to
the workbench.
3.
Remove the fence lock levers and the fence.
4. Place the back of the base flush with work-
bench edge and remount the base with the
hardware removed earlier.
5.
If used, rotate the fence and extension block
180°, and place them on the base.
