INSTALLING THE JOINTER–PLANER
The jointer-planer is supplied with its own stand.
Refer
to the
separate
installation sheet
for stand
assembly
and mounting in-
structions.
The
jointer-planer
can
also be
fastened securely
to
a
firm supporting surface such
as
a workbench.
Holes
should
be
drilled through supporting
surface
of
the
workbench
as
illustrated
Each
foot of the
Jointer-Planer
should be bolted securely
using
5/16"
diameter
machine bolts, 5/16" hex nuts, and
lockwashers
Bolts should be of sufficient
length
to
accommodate
foot
of
Jointer-Planer,
washer, hex
nuts, and thickness of supporting sur-
face. Tighten all four bolts securely. If the Jointer-Planer
is
to
be
used in
a
portable application, it is recommended that it
be
fastened
to
a
mounting
board. The board
should
be
of sufficient
size
to avoid
tipping of Jointer-Planer while
in use.
Any good
grade
of plywood
or chipboard with a 3/4" minimum thickness is recommended
Mount Jointer-Planer to
board
using hole
pattern
as
shown.
Clamp
board
securely
to workbench or supporting surface
j/iTo PEt
Supporting
surface where
Jointer-Planer is
mo0nted
should
be
examined
carefully after mounting to
insure
that no
movement
during
use can
result. If
any
"tipping"
or
"walking"
is
noted, secure
workbench or supporting surface before operating.
