NOTICE
Safety Instructions for Machinery
SECTION 1: SAFETY

Model G0826 (Mfd. Since 01/17) -9-
WEARING PROPER APPAREL. Do not wear
clothing, apparel or jewelry that can become
entangled in moving parts. Always tie back or
cover long hair. Wear non-slip footwear to reduce
risk of slipping and losing control or accidentally
contacting cutting tool or moving parts.
HAZARDOUS DUST. Dust created by machinery
operations may cause cancer, birth defects, or
long-term respiratory damage. Be aware of dust
hazards associated with each workpiece mate-
rial. Always wear a NIOSH-approved respirator to
reduce your risk.
HEARING PROTECTION. Always wear hear-
ing protection when operating or observing loud
machinery. Extended exposure to this noise
without hearing protection can cause permanent
hearing loss.
REMOVE ADJUSTING TOOLS. Tools left on
machinery can become dangerous projectiles
upon startup. Never leave chuck keys, wrenches,
or any other tools on machine. Always verify
removal before starting!
USE CORRECT TOOL FOR THE JOB. Only use
this tool for its intended purpose—do not force
it or an attachment to do a job for which it was
not designed. Never make unapproved modifica-
tions—modifying tool or using it differently than
intended may result in malfunction or mechanical
failure that can lead to personal injury or death!
AWKWARD POSITIONS. Keep proper footing
and balance at all times when operating machine.
Do not overreach! Avoid awkward hand positions
that make workpiece control difficult or increase
the risk of accidental injury.
CHILDREN & BYSTANDERS. Keep children and
bystanders at a safe distance from the work area.
Stop using machine if they become a distraction.
GUARDS & COVERS. Guards and covers reduce
accidental contact with moving parts or flying
debris. Make sure they are properly installed,
undamaged, and working correctly BEFORE
operating machine.
FORCING MACHINERY. Do not force machine.
It will do the job safer and better at the rate for
which it was designed.
NEVER STAND ON MACHINE. Serious injury
may occur if machine is tipped or if the cutting
tool is unintentionally contacted.
STABLE MACHINE. Unexpected movement dur-
ing operation greatly increases risk of injury or
loss of control. Before starting, verify machine is
stable and mobile base (if used) is locked.
USE RECOMMENDED ACCESSORIES. Consult
this owner’s manual or the manufacturer for rec-
ommended accessories. Using improper acces-
sories will increase the risk of serious injury.
UNATTENDED OPERATION. To reduce the
risk of accidental injury, turn machine OFF and
ensure all moving parts completely stop before
walking away. Never leave machine running
while unattended.
MAINTAIN WITH CARE. Follow all maintenance
instructions and lubrication schedules to keep
machine in good working condition. A machine
that is improperly maintained could malfunction,
leading to serious personal injury or death.
DAMAGED PARTS. Regularly inspect machine
for damaged, loose, or mis-adjusted parts—or
any condition that could affect safe operation.
Immediately repair/replace BEFORE operating
machine. For your own safety, DO NOT operate
machine with damaged parts!
MAINTAIN POWER CORDS. When disconnect-
ing cord-connected machines from power, grab
and pull the plug—NOT the cord. Pulling the cord
may damage the wires inside. Do not handle
cord/plug with wet hands. Avoid cord damage by
keeping it away from heated surfaces, high traffic
areas, harsh chemicals, and wet/damp locations.
EXPERIENCING DIFFICULTIES. If at any time
you experience difficulties performing the intend-
ed operation, stop using the machine! Contact our
Technical Support at [phone].

-10- Model G0826 (Mfd. Since 01/17)
Additional Safety for Power Feeders
Serious injury or death can occur from getting hands, clothing, or jewelry entangled in moving
parts of power feeder or being pulled into cutting tool on attached machinery. Workpieces
ejected by attached machine can strike operator or bystanders with significant force, causing
impact injuries. To minimize risk of injury, anyone operating this machine MUST completely
heed hazards and warnings below.
FEATHERBOARD. When cutting long or large
stock that is difficult to feed properly, use a feath-
erboard with power feeder (on the infeed side) to
maintain even pressure and control of workpiece
against fence, and to help reduce risk of kickback.
FEED WORKPIECE PROPERLY. To reduce risk
of kickback, verify blade or cutter of associated
machine is at full speed before feeding stock
with power feeder. Avoid feeding workpiece too
quickly. Always verify power feeder wheels are
slightly lower than workpiece to ensure it will not
slip during cutting operation. Stop power feeder
BEFORE stopping cutting tool.
WORKPIECE SUPPORT. Loss of workpiece con-
trol while feeding can increase risk of kickback.
Support workpiece continuously during opera-
tion as required. Use auxiliary stands or support
tables for long or wide stock.
ADJUSTMENTS/MAINTENANCE. Make sure
power feeder and associated machine are turned
OFF, disconnected from power, and all moving
parts are completely stopped before doing adjust-
ments or maintenance.
ATTACHED MACHINERY. Follow all warnings
and safety information for attached machine doing
cutting work.
HAND SAFETY. To reduce risk of accidental
entanglement/pinch injuries between power feed-
er rollers and workpiece, or contact with blade/cut-
ter of associated machine, keep hands away from
rotating parts of power feeder. Turn power feeder
and associated machine OFF before removing
chips, sawdust, or cutoffs—DO NOT use your
hands.
INSTALLING GUARDS. To reduce risk of kick-
back and accidental contact with blade/cutter
of associated machine, always install guards,
fences, and hold-downs before starting attached
machine and power feeder. Repair or replace
guards promptly if they become damaged.
KICKBACK. Occurs when workpiece is ejected
from machine at a high rate of speed. To reduce
risk of kickback-related injuries (blindness, broken
bones, bruises, amputation, severe lacerations,
and death), use quality workpieces and proper
setup or maintenance of power feeder or associ-
ated machine. Never stand in path of workpiece.
VERIFY EACH SETUP. An improperly adjusted
power feeder can increase risk of kickback,
because it will continue feeding even if stock is
not properly positioned for cut. Ensure that power
feeder is set up correctly and firmly secured
before feeding workpiece.

Model G0826 (Mfd. Since 01/17) -11-
SECTION 2: POWER SUPPLY
Availability
Before installing the machine, consider the avail-
ability and proximity of the required power supply
circuit. If an existing circuit does not meet the
requirements for this machine, a new circuit must
be installed. To minimize the risk of electrocution,
fire, or equipment damage, installation work and
electrical wiring must be done by an electrician or
qualified service personnel in accordance with all
applicable codes and standards.
Electrocution, fire, shock,
or equipment damage
may occur if machine is
not properly grounded
and connected to power
supply.
Full-Load Current Rating
The full-load current rating is the amperage a
machine draws at 100% of the rated output power.
On machines with multiple motors, this is the
amperage drawn by the largest motor or sum of all
motors and electrical devices that might operate
at one time during normal operations.
Full-Load Current Rating at 220V .... 1.8 Amps
The full-load current is not the maximum amount
of amps that the machine will draw. If the machine
is overloaded, it will draw additional amps beyond
the full-load rating.
If the machine is overloaded for a sufficient length
of time, damage, overheating, or fire may result—
especially if connected to an undersized circuit.
To reduce the risk of these hazards, avoid over-
loading the machine during operation and make
sure it is connected to a power supply circuit that
meets the specified circuit requirements.
For your own safety and protection of
property, consult an electrician if you are
unsure about wiring practices or electrical
codes in your area.
Note: Circuit requirements in this manual apply to
a dedicated circuit—where only one machine will
be running on the circuit at a time. If machine will
be connected to a shared circuit where multiple
machines may be running at the same time, con-
sult an electrician or qualified service personnel to
ensure circuit is properly sized for safe operation.
A power supply circuit includes all electrical
equipment between the breaker box or fuse panel
in the building and the machine. The power sup-
ply circuit used for this machine must be sized to
safely handle the full-load current drawn from the
machine for an extended period of time. (If this
machine is connected to a circuit protected by
fuses, use a time delay fuse marked D.)
Circuit Information
Circuit Requirements
This machine is prewired to operate on a power
supply circuit that has a verified ground and meets
the following requirements:
Nominal Voltage ......... 208V, 220V, 230V, 240V
Cycle ..........................................................60 Hz
Phase ........................................... Single-Phase
Power Supply Circuit ......................... 15 Amps
Plug/Receptacle ............................. NEMA 6-15

-12- Model G0826 (Mfd. Since 01/17)
Improper connection of the equipment-grounding
wire can result in a risk of electric shock. The
wire with green insulation (with or without yellow
stripes) is the equipment-grounding wire. If repair
or replacement of the power cord or plug is nec-
essary, do not connect the equipment-grounding
wire to a live (current carrying) terminal.
Check with a qualified electrician or service per-
sonnel if you do not understand these grounding
requirements, or if you are in doubt about whether
the tool is properly grounded. If you ever notice
that a cord or plug is damaged or worn, discon-
nect it from power, and immediately replace it with
a new one.
Extension Cords
We do not recommend using an extension cord
with this machine.
If you must use an extension
cord, only use it if absolutely necessary and only
on a temporary basis.
Extension cords cause voltage drop, which can
damage electrical components and shorten motor
life. Voltage drop increases as the extension cord
size gets longer and the gauge size gets smaller
(higher gauge numbers indicate smaller sizes).
Any extension cord used with this machine must
be in good condition and contain a ground wire
and matching plug/receptacle. Additionally, it must
meet the following size requirements:
Minimum Gauge Size ...........................16 AWG
Maximum Length (Shorter is Better).......50 ft.

Grounding Requirements
This machine MUST be grounded. In the event
of certain malfunctions or breakdowns, grounding
reduces the risk of electric shock by providing a
path of least resistance for electric current.
This machine is equipped with a power cord that
has an equipment-grounding wire and a grounding
plug. Only insert plug into a matching receptacle
(outlet) that is properly installed and grounded in
accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
DO NOT modify the provided plug!
No adapter should be used with plug. If
plug does not fit available receptacle, or if
machine must be reconnected for use on a
different type of circuit, reconnection must
be performed by an electrician or qualified
service personnel, and it must comply with
all local codes and ordinances.
Serious injury could occur if you connect
machine to power before completing setup
process. DO NOT connect to power until
instructed later in this manual.

Cleanup Site Considerations
The unpainted surfaces of your machine are
coated with a heavy-duty rust preventative that
prevents corrosion during shipment and storage.
This rust preventative works extremely well, but it
will take a little time to clean.
Be patient and do a thorough job cleaning your
machine. The time you spend doing this now will
give you a better appreciation for the proper care
of your machine's unpainted surfaces.
There are many ways to remove this rust preven-
tative, but the following steps work well in a wide
variety of situations. Always follow the manufac-
turer’s instructions with any cleaning product you
use and make sure you work in a well-ventilated
area to minimize exposure to toxic fumes.
Before cleaning, gather the following:
• Disposable rags
• Cleaner/degreaser (WD•40 works well)
• Safety glasses & disposable gloves
• Plastic paint scraper (optional)
Basic steps for removing rust preventative:
1.
Put on safety glasses.
2.
Coat the rust preventative with a liberal
amount of cleaner/degreaser, then let it soak
for 5–10 minutes.
3.
Wipe off the surfaces. If your cleaner/degreas-
er is effective, the rust preventative will wipe
off easily. If you have a plastic paint scraper,
scrape off as much as you can first, then wipe
off the rest with the rag.
4.
Repeat Steps 2–3 as necessary until clean,
then coat all unpainted surfaces with a quality
metal protectant to prevent rust.
NOTICE
Avoid chlorine-based solvents, such as
acetone or brake parts cleaner, that may
damage painted surfaces.
Note: Power feeder can rotate 360°around the
vertical column, so be sure to situate machine so
it can freely rotate. The machine is shown here
with the overarm shaft fully extended.
Children and visitors may be
seriously injured if unsuper-
vised around this machine.
Lock entrances to the shop
or disable start switch or
power connection to prevent
unsupervised use.
Workbench Load
Refer to the Machine Data Sheet for the weight
and footprint specifications of your machine.
Some workbenches may require additional rein-
forcement to support the weight of the machine
and workpiece materials.
Consider anticipated workpiece sizes and addi-
tional space needed for auxiliary stands, work
tables, or other machinery when establishing a
location for this machine in the shop. Below is
the minimum amount of space needed for the
machine.

Assembly
The machine must be fully assembled before it
can be operated. Before beginning the assembly
process, refer to
Needed for Setup and gather
all
listed items. To ensure the assembly process
goes smoothly, first clean any
parts that are cov-
ered or coated in heavy-duty rust preventative (if
applicable).
To assemble power feeder:
1. Place vertical column assembly onto machine
table top, then attach vertical travel handle to
vertical crank shown in Figure 7.
2. Loosen hex nut and set screw under hori-
zontal handwheel shown in Figure 8, then
remove horizontal handwheel.
3. Feed overarm shaft into sleeve of vertical
column (see Figure 8). Re-install handwheel
and engage gears with overarm shaft teeth.
Re-tighten set screw and hex nut just enough
to secure handwheel.
Note: Do not overtighten set screw or hand
wheel will not rotate.
Figure 7. Vertical travel handle installed.
Tip: We recommend using a set of C-clamps to
temporarily secure the base while assembling the
power feeder to prevent it from tipping. You will
mount the power feeder to the machine table after
completing the assembly process. Refer to Base
Mounting on Page 17 for specific details.

6. Attach lower elbow-joint to power feeder
assembly by threading lower elbow-joint lever
all the way into threads of axial hub of power
feeder (see Figure 11).

7. Loosen vertical and horizontal travel locks and
rotation lock, and use horizontal handwheel
and vertical travel handle to position upper
elbow-joint directly over hub of lower elbow-
joint (see Figure 12).
Tip: Place a short (approx. 12" long) 2 x 4
under power feeder to make it level with table
top and make it easier to connect upper and
lower elbow-joints during next step.
Figure 13. Upper elbow-joint lock fully tightened.
8. Position upper elbow-joint so internal
threads contact those inside lower elbow-
joint, then fully tighten upper elbow-joint lock
(see Figure 13).
9. Adjust rollers parallel to table top, then tight-
en hex bolts shown in Figure 14.
10. Position angle adjustment ring so it just con-
tacts upper elbow-joint, align "0" on ring with
indicator, then tighten screw (see Figure 14).

Position the power feeder on the table top to
determine where to drill the base mounting holes
in order to maximize power feeder swing and
adjustment options.
Use the included base-bolt pattern template to
align the mounting holes. Consider the available
mounting choices for your needs: Through-Bolt
Mounting and Direct Mounting (discussed on
Page 18).
With either mounting choice, leave room to oper-
ate the hand cranks and lock levers to position the
rubber rollers parallel with the table surface and
approximately 1⁄8" lower than the thickness of the
workpiece.
Also, aim the front of the power feeder slightly
towards the machine fence (see Figure 15)
with approximately 1° to 1.5° toe-in toward the
machine fence, so the rubber rollers lightly push
the workpiece against the fence during cutting
operations.
If cutting long or large stock that is difficult to feed
properly, use a featherboard before the power
feeder (on the infeed side) to maintain even pres-
sure and control of the workpiece against the
fence.

Direct Mounting
Use the included mounting template to drill and
tap the table so the power feeder base can be
directly mounted to the table surface (see Figure
17). Use medium-grade liquid thread-locking com-
pound on all threads. If the table is less than 3⁄8"
thick where the holes will be drilled and tapped,
or if support webbing interferes, the threads may
strip or loosen during power feeder use. Thread-
locking compound is not a permanent solution.
Revert to the Through-Bolt Mounting or clamp-
ing kit options.

Through-Bolt Mounting
We recommend mounting the power feeder to
the machine table with through bolts, nuts, and
washers (see Figure 16). This option provides
the most rigidity and clamping strength to prevent
the feeder base from twisting out of alignment
during use. However, if under-table support webs
interfere with washer or nut locations, use the
optional Model G4175 clamping kit, or drill and
thread holes directly into the table as described in
Direct Mounting.
