Assembly and Installation
Tools needed for assembly:
5mm hex wrench
12mm and 14mm open end wrenches
Remove the clear plastic from around the feeder
and stand.
Exposed metal surfaces have been given a
protective coating at the factory. This should be
removed with a soft cloth moistened with a good
commercial solvent, such as kerosene or
mineral spirits. Do not use acetone, gasoline, or
lacquer thinner for this purpose. Do not get
solvents near plastic or rubber parts, and do not
use an abrasive pad because it may scratch
metal surfaces.
The Stock Feeder should be mounted to an
auxiliary machine in a well-lit area. Leave
enough space around the work area for loading
and off-loading stock and general maintenance.
The stock feeder and the
auxiliary machine to which you are mounting
it should both be disconnected from power
during installation.
1. Determine the mounting location for the
stand. Keep in mind the overall length of the
horizontal arm on the stand (27-1/2”) so that
there will be enough adjustment when the
Stock Feeder is mounted.
IMPORTANT: Locate the stand so that you
will not drill through any ribs or supports
beneath the table surface.
2. Use the provided boring template to find the
centerline spacing for the holes in the
feeder’s base. Clean the mounting surface,
then remove the backing from the boring
template and stick the template carefully
into place on the mounting surface.
NOTE: The same template can be found on
page 25.
3. Center punch and drill four 8.5 millimeter
diameter holes in the surface, then tap the
holes with M10 x P1.5 threads. Alternatively,
if you plan to secure the stand with hex nuts
from below the mounting surface, drill
clearance holes of 7/16” diameter without
tapping.
4. Peel off the boring template and discard.
5. Loosen the lock handle and remove the
base from the stand assembly, shown in
Figure 1.
