Bought a 1285 powermatic jointer.

How much assembly is needed on this thing? They're supposed to call me when they receive it at their store. I'd like to check the flatness of the table also.

[Travis Conner]

I hope I don't have to attach the cutterhead to the base.

[Andrew Seemann]

For what that thing cost, the table had better be flat and not require checking.

You can download the manual from the Powermatic website to see what is involved.

Just mount the fence, switch arm, dust hood and plug on the cord.

[Travis Conner]

Good deal Rob. I can handle that.

I've just heard about it on here that they're off sometimes.
