DW7351 Folding Table Box Contents
- 2 folding tables
- 4 springs
- 4 stepped Allen bolts
- 4 Allen cap screws
- 4 nuts
SET-UP AND INSTALLATION OF BASE HARDWARE
- Place the planer on a secure table or workbench. Position the planer so the front 3-4 inches of the base can be accessed from the underside.
- Secure the rear of the planer to the table/bench with nails or screws to prevent it from tilting or falling from the table.
- Place the spring onto the small end of the stepped Allen bolt.
- Insert the end of the bolt with the spring around it into the larger hole on the side of the base.
- Push the stepped Allen bolt all the way through the hole in the first rib on the underside of the planer. The spring should engage the rib slightly and the threads should show on the right side of the rib.
- On the underside of the planer, use a wrench to hold the nut in place while turning the stepped bolt into it. The T-wrench on your planer can be used to turn the stepped bolt until it is fully secured (See Figure A).
- Install the smaller Allen screw into the lower threaded hole on the side of the base. Use the T-wrench to tighten that fastener securely (See Figure B).
- Depress the top Allen pin until it is flush with the base and slide the top hole of the table over the pin and release the pin so they lock together (See Figures B and C).
- To attach the table to the rear of the planer, install the bolts and spring following the above procedure.
Your tables should now fold up and down on the top Allen screw and rest on the bottom screw while in position for planing.
NOTE: To transport the planer with the tables, fold them up and carry the unit as recommended by the planer manual.

TO REMOVE THE TABLES
- Depress the spring-loaded bolts on the base and slide each end of the table toward you so they disengage the holes in the tables. You may want to use the T-wrench from your planer to push the bolts flush with the base to easily remove the tables.
- Leave the hardware (stepped bolts and small Allen cap screw) in the base until you need to re-attach the tables.
