Rear Cabinet Panel (1) NOTE: Tabs on rear panel must be on the inside of side panels prior to securing with nuts and bolts. n 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. n Thread the power cord through the hole in the rear of the cabinet. n Remove the screws and washers from the cable plate. n Thread the power cord through the hole from the inside of the cabinet until the cord plate reaches the cabinet. n Reinstall the washers and screws from the outside of the cabinet with the cord plate flush against the inside of cabinet.

ASSEMBLING AND TENSIONING BELT See Figure 19. n Locate the V-belt. n Slip the V-belt over both the motor and cutter head pulleys. n 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. n Visually check the front to back alignment of the pulleys and adjust the motor as needed. ASSEMBLING THE PULLEY GUARD See Figure 20. n Locate the following: Cross Serrated Pan Head Screws (4), 3/16-24 x 3/8 in. Pulley guard (1) n 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. n Mount the pulley guard in place as shown using 3/16 in. screws.
