Transporting the Planer (Fig. A)
WARNING: For your own safety, it is recommended
that two people carry this machine or serious injury
could result.
When moving your planer, carry it either by the side
carrying handles

or by the handles
the planer.
Bench Mounting (Fig. A)
To facilitate bench mounting, two different sized holes
are provided on the four corners of your planer. If mounting
the planer with bolts, use the larger holes. If mounting the
planer with nails or screws, use the smaller holes. It is not
necessary to use both sets of holes.
Always mount your planer firmly to prevent movement. To
enhance the tool's portability, it can be mounted to a piece
of 1/2" (12.7 mm) or thicker plywood which can then be
clamped to your work support or moved to other job sites
and reclamped.
nOTE: If you elect to mount your planer onto a piece
of plywood, make sure that the mounting screws don't
protrude from the bottom of the wood. The plywood must
sit flush on the work support.
CAUTION: The mounting surface should not be
warped or otherwise uneven.
