Lifting & Placing
HEAVY LIFT!
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.

Lifting
Bar
(1 of 4)
The planer is equipped with four lifting bars that
extend in order to lift and place the planer, as
shown in
Figure 12.
The rear wheels and front feet mount to the bot-
tom of the machine. Therefore, the best time to
assemble these components is while the machine
is elevated safely by the forklift.
To lift and place machine:
1. Use forklift to lift machine off pallet (see
Figure 12).
Tip:
When positioning lift forks, place shop
rags or cardboard between forks and cabinet
stand to avoid scratching paint.
2. While machine is elevated, install rear wheels
using (2) M8-1.25 X 60 cap screws and (2)
8mm lock washers (see
Figure 13).

4. Set machine down in suitable location.
When installing rear wheels and front feet
in Steps 2 & 3, machine MUST be fully sup-
ported by forklift to prevent machine from
falling, causing serious crushing injury or
death. If machine can not be sufficiently
supported during the next two steps, we
recommend temporarily setting machine on
supports such as 4 x 4 blocks to raise it off
the ground.
