Find the best mounting location on your
woodworking machine. Guidelines:

. The power feeder should not affect any

moving machine parts.

It should be as close to the work area as

possible, i.e., keep the distance between the
base and rollers to a minimum.

Test the location by temporarily mounting

the base on a stable piece of hardwood
which is clamped to the machine. Swing the
power feeder in a variety of positions to
ensure that the base is best suited to your
anticipated needs.
