INSTALLATION

MOVING & INSTALLING THE JOINTER

  

When moving the jointer, lift 

the unit by grasping the cabinet ends below the 

tables of the machine. Refrain from using the 

infeed and outfeed tables, as they are factory 

set and should not be disturbed. DO NOT carry 

or move the machine using the fence assembly, 

safety guard, dust chute or hand wheels.

 

1.  The machine should be firmly bolted to a stand or 

workbench to avoid any movement of the machine 

during use. The jointer’s base has holes in each of 

the four corners for this purpose (hardware is not 

included).

2.  For portability and secure clamping of the jointer 

to a workbench, the machine can be first permanently 

bolted to a piece of plywood. Then the jointer can be 

positioned on your workbench, or other solid surface, 

and the plywood can be clamped in place to secure 

the jointer for use. After use, the plywood can be 

unclamped and the jointer stored for future use.

3.  Position the machine on a solid, level bench that 

is located in an area that ample space in front and 

in back of the jointer for the moving of lumber to be 

milled. Align the machine so that during use, any 

kickback will not face aisles, doorways, or other work 

areas that bystanders may be in. Do not locate or use 

the machine in damp or wet conditions.

                 THE MACHINE MUST NOT BE PLUGGED IN AND THE POWER SWITCH 

            MUST BE IN THE 'OFF' POSITION UNTIL ASSEMBLY IS COMPLETE.

NOTE: 

The 20-600H Jointer requires minimal 

assembly, and therefore the machine can be mounted 

to a stand, workbench, or on a piece of plywood for 

portability and storage before assembling of the parts 

begins.
