Assembly; Handwheel; Control Box - Jet JWP-15DX Operating Instructions And Parts Manual

Assembly

Tools required for assembly:
Forklift or hoist with slings
Open-end wrenches (provided)
Hex wrenches (provided)
16mm open-end wrench
Remove the screws holding the planer to the
pallet and use a forklift or hoist to lift the planer
off the pallet. Forks and straps should always be
placed under the four lifting handles when lifting
this machine (Figure 3). The lifting handles can
be pushed back in when not in use.
The planer should be operated in a well-lit area
with good ventilation. It can be rolled on its
casters to the desired location. Press the foot
pedal (Figure 4) to lock the casters during
operation or adjustments.
Exposed surfaces, such as tables, rollers,
cutterhead, etc., have been given a protective
coating at the factory. This should be removed
with a soft cloth moistened with a good
commercial solvent. Do not use acetone,
gasoline, lacquer thinner, or other solvents with
a low flash point. Do not use an abrasive pad
because it may scratch the polished cast iron
surfaces.
Use care when cleaning
around the cutterhead area; knives are
extremely sharp.

Handwheel

1. Place the key into the slot on the shaft
(Figure 5), and mount the handwheel to the
shaft, making sure it is oriented so that it
slips over the key.
2. Peel off the backing of the directional label,
and attach it to the center of the handwheel.
Place flat washer and hex nut on shaft and
tighten with 16mm wrench.
3.
Mount the handle in the threaded hole in the
handwheel, and tighten with a 12mm wrench
placed over the flat on the nut.

Control Box

Mount the control box as shown in Figure 6, with
the two socket head cap screws which you'll find
mounted to the head casting. Use a 5mm hex
wrench.
