TRANSPORTATION/INSTALLATION
As soon as you receive your new folder, and before
removing the machine from the skid, check carefully for any
damage to the shipments. If any damage is found, promptly
contact your Baumfolder sales representative.
To lift the folder from the skid, place the fork lift rails
under the lower rails as shown in Figure 2. Note that the
fork lift must have at least a 1500 lb. capacity.
Remove all rust protection coating after unpacking the
folder.

Level the machine on the floor. Place a spirit level on
the #2 fold roller (Figure 3) and on the feeder crossmembers.
SQUARING THE MACHINE
It is essential that this folding machine is square in
order for it to work properly. To square the machine,
measure diagonally across corners from feeder frame to
folder frame (Figure 4). Dimensions shown are approxi-
mate. Be sure that the measurements taken are identical
within 1/16-inch. If the machine is out of square, shift the
frames in the direction needed until the proper squareness is
obtained.
