Mounting
The Model G0711 can be mounted on the optional
Model G0712 stand or a sturdy workbench.
Optional Stand (G0712)
Instructions for mounting the planishing ham-
mer to this stand are provided with the stand.
Follow those instructions, then continue with the
Assembly & Setup instructions provided on this
sheet.

Make sure the workbench is sturdy enough to
support the weight of both the machine and
workpieces, and the forces that will occur while
hammering. Also, make sure the workbench is not
so tall that the foot switch cannot be comfortably
placed on the floor.
Place the C-frame on the workbench so the
hammer/anvil portion extends over the edge, as
shown below.

Use

" (or 10mm) diameter fasteners. The length

of the bolts/screws will depend on the thickness of
the workbench. The type of fasteners required to
install the planishing hammer will depend on how
you choose to mount it. The two most common
options for mounting are the through-mount and
direct-mount methods (see Figures 4–5 below).

After the C-frame has been positioned where
you want to mount it, transfer the mounting hole
locations from the C-frame mounting plate into
the workbench, so they are marked clearly for
drilling.
One way to transfer these hole locations accu-
rately is to place a
⁄
" (or 10mm) drill bit in the

mounting hole with the bit pointing against the
workbench. Lightly tap the backside of the drill
bit with a hammer, rotate the drill bit 90°, then tap
it again. This method will leave a light "X" in the
surface of the workbench, which is centered in
the hole.
Drill or pre-drill the mounting holes as necessary
for the fasteners you will use for mounting. (A
drill bit is commonly used to pre-drill for
