Lifting & Placing
Straining or crushing injury
may occur from improperly
lifting machine or some of
its parts. To reduce this risk,
get help from other people
and use a forklift (or other
lifting equipment) rated for
weight of this machine.
Unbolt the jointer/planer from the pallet, and use a
forklift to lift the machine off the pallet and onto a
suitable location as shown in Figure 15. Only lift
the machine enough to clear the floor.
Figure 15. Example of lifting machine with
forklift.
You can also attach hooks and lifting slings to
the machine using the three lifting holes shown
in Figures 16–17 with a forklift, hoist, or boom
crane. If you choose this alternative, you must
punch out the lifting strap holes—this will perma-
nently alter your machine.
If you are unsure how to lift this machine, consult
a qualified professional.

Assembly
The machine must be fully assembled before it
can be operated. Before beginning the assembly
process, refer to Needed for Setup and gather
all listed items. To ensure the assembly process
goes smoothly, first clean any parts that are cov-
ered or coated in heavy-duty rust preventative (if
applicable).
The Model G0634X comes fully assembled
except for installation of the cutterhead guard.
The cutterhead guard helps to protect hands and
fingers from the rotating cutterhead during joint-
ing operations. The cutterhead guard MUST be
installed before operating this machine.
