Mounting Instructions
First determine where to mount the Motor Hanger
or Support Rod on your bench. Right handed flex
shaft users typically mount a hanger on their right
and left handed users on their left. Motors should
hang 33
″
to 38
″
above the work area, as measured
from the top of the motor, and 20
″
to 28
″
off to the
right or left side of your work piece.
1.
Firmly attach the
Base Plate
to the bench top us-
ing the three supplied wood screws. Make sure that
the plate is oriented so that you can easily tighten
the set screw which holds the rod in place.
2.
Insert the
Upright or Support Rod
into the base
plate. You may need to first loosen the set screw in
the base to allow the rod to bottom out. Re-tighten
the screw when the rod is fully mounted.
3.
With the rod securely in place, mount Component
Arms in your preferred order by sliding each down
from the top of the rod. You may have to remove the
set screw on the top of an Upright Rod, unscrew the
top cap on a Support Rod, and/or loosen the Arm set
screws to slide them down. Tighten the set screw on
each Arm once it is in position (arm heights can be
adjusted after everything is mounted). Component
Arms swing horizontally 180º to keep accessories
and small tools within reach, or stored out of the
way when not needed.
4.
If you have the Light Bar:
With Component
Arms in place, slide the Light Bar on to the Upright
or Support Rod at the top and tighten the set screws
or screw on the cap. Adjust the light bar mounting
bracket to insure that the bar illuminates the work
area and the shade faces the user. The Light Bar
should be able to pivot upward 90
°
to the
‘Off’
position without making contact with motors or
other objects that would prevent it from moving
from one position to another. When the Light Bar
is horizontal (and plugged in) it lights up.
5.
Once all arms are in final position, you can plug
the light connector cord into the adapter and then
power outlet.
Remember:
When plugged in,
Horizontal is On and Vertical is Off.
6.
If you have the Motor Hanger:
Install the
Angled Extension Rod
into the top of the Upright
Rod. Make sure that the set screw is backed out a
little before installing the Extension Rod.
a.
Install the Springs onto the angled Extension
Rod and use the “V” portion of the Spring(s) to
suspend the motor bale(s).
b.
Swing the angled Extension Rod to move the
motors into proper position and tighten the set
screw on the top of the Upright Rod to secure the
Extension Rod. Tie wraps may be used to hold the
motor power cords to the Upright Rod.
Pivot Light Bar up and
the LED light turns off
7.
Make final position adjustments to the mount-
ing brackets on all Arms to achieve desired swing
radius. Make sure all screws are firmly tightened.
