ASSEMBLY
ASSEMBLING REAR PANEL
See Figure 18.
 Locate the following:
Carriage Head Bolts, 5/16-18 x 1/2 in. .................. 6
Hex Nuts Serrated Flange, 5/16 in. ....................... 6
Rear Cabinet Panel ................................................ 1
NOTE: Tabs on rear panel must be on the inside of side
panels prior to securing with nuts and bolts.
 Position the rear panel in place from the bottom of the
cabinet as shown. Bolt in place using 5/16 in. carriage
head bolts and 5/16 in. flange nuts. Make sure the rear
panel's tabs are on the inside of the cabinet. Tighten the
nuts.
 Thread the power cord through the hole in the rear of the
cabinet.
 Remove the screws and washers from the cable plate.
 Thread the power cord through the hole from the inside
of the cabinet until the cord plate reaches the cabinet.
 Reinstall the washers and screws from the outside of
the cabinet with the cord plate flush against the inside
of cabinet. Retighten screws.
NOTE: Securely tighten all cabinet nuts and bolts as well
as jointer table mounting bolts at this time.
ASSEMBLING AND TENSIONING BELT
See Figure 19.
 Locate the V-belt.
 Slip the V-belt over both the motor and cutter head pul-
leys.
 While the jointer is still upside down, slide the motor up the
motor mount to put tension on the V-belt. This will require
assistance. Once the V-belt has been tensioned, tighten
the motor bolts. The V-belt should have approximately
1 in. deflection (the measurement of how much you can
push in on one side of the V-belt).
NOTE: An alternate method for tensioning the V-belt is to
turn the unit upright, letting the motor slide down in the
slots and allowing the weight of the motor only to tension
the V-belt.
 Visually check the front to back alignment of the pulleys
and adjust the motor as needed.
ASSEMBLING THE PULLEY GUARD

 Locate the following:
Cross Serrated Pan Head Screws,
3/16-24 x 3/8 in. .......................................................4
Pulley guard ..............................................................1
 With assistance, set the jointer upright.
WARNING:
This tool is heavy. To avoid back injury, lift with your
legs, not your back, and get help when needed.
 Mount the pulley guard in place as shown using 3/16 in.
