ASSEMBLY OF MARK VII STAND
There are pre-punched holes in each foot for mounting retractable casters, an extremely useful accessory which
makes SHOPSMITH a mobile unit easily relocated anywhere in
or outside the home or shop. Item No. 505500.
AFTER UNCRATING, SET UP THE STAND AS FOLLOWS:
1. Attach end frames to base rails using three 1/4 - 20 x 1/2 hex
head bolts with 1/4" nuts and lock washers at each attachment
area. (Fig. 4) Leave bolts finger tight until step 7.
2. Mount deck on top of end frames with deck flange
on outside. Fasten with sixteen 1/4 - 20 x 3/8 truss
head screws, with nuts and lock washers (Fig. 5).
Screw heads go outside. Leave all screws finger tight
until step 7.
3. Assemble feet to rails. Turn unit upside down.
Push four #1024 Tinnerman nuts onto rail end
flanges, using outer pair and inner pair of holes only
(Fig. 6). Make certain that the plain round hole is on outside of flange. If accessory
retractable casters are to be mounted, put Tinnerman nuts (from caster package) on
middle holes also. See direction sheet supplied with casters.
Assemble foot by engaging lip of top of foot and then bringing flange
mounting holes into line using a rolling action (Fig. 7). Assemble screws
into Timmerman nuts. When all screws have been engaged, tighten
firmly.
