Lifting & Placing; Bench Mounting - Grizzly G0836 Owner's Manual

Lifting & Placing
Straining or crushing injury
may occur from improperly
lifting machine or some of
its parts. To reduce this risk,
get help from other people
and use a forklift (or other
lifting equipment) rated for
weight of this machine.
To lift and place machine into position:
1. Move shipping crate next to workbench or
stand, then unbolt machine from pallet.
2. Move machine work table as close to column
as possible, and raise headstock to its high-
est position. This will help balance machine
when lifting and moving.
3.
Tighten Z-axis and X/Y-axis table locks (see
Page 26) to avoid sudden shifts when lifting.
4.
Position a lifting sling under headstock.
Connect sling ends to a forklift, then place
machine on workbench.
5.
Secure machine to workbench following
instructions in Bench Mounting, or mount to
optional T28099 stand (see Figure 10).

Bench Mounting

Number of Mounting Holes ............................ 4
Dia. of Mounting Hardware Needed ..........
The base of this machine has mounting holes
that allow it to be fastened to a workbench or
other mounting surface to prevent it from moving
during operation and causing accidental injury or
damage.
The strongest mounting option is a "Through
Mount" (see example below) where holes are
drilled all the way through the workbench—and
hex bolts, washers, and hex nuts are used to
secure the machine in place.

Another option is a "direct mount" (see example
below) where the machine is secured directly to
the workbench with lag screws and washers.
