BEFORE YOU BEGIN

Receiving

The shipment should be thoroughly inspected as soon as it
is received. The signed bill of lading is acknowledgement,
by the carrier, of receipt in good condition of the shipment.
If any of the goods called for on the bill of lading are
shorted or damaged, do not accept them until the carrier
makes a notation of the shorted or damaged goods on the
freight bill. Do this for your own protection.
NOTIFY THE CARRIER AT ONCE if any hidden loss or
damage is discovered after receipt. IT IS DIFFICULT TO
COLLECT FOR LOSS OR DAMAGE AFTER YOU HAVE
GIVEN THE CARRIER A CLEAR RECEIPT. File your claim
with the carrier promptly. Support your claim with copies of
the bill of lading, freight bill, invoice, and photographs, if
possible.
Unpacking and Setup
1. Remove the carton from the pallet.
2. Remove the shipping bolts making sure to keep hands
clear of all pinch points.
3. Remove straps and plastic wrap holding the hood and
tower in shipping position.
Do not use the control tower, face-plate, hood or
threaded shaft to lift the balancer.
Use help to remove the balancer from the pallet. The
unit is heavy and the weight is not evenly distributed.
Dropping the unit from the pallet may cause personal
injury or equipment damage.

Electrical Requirements

YOUR MACHINE HAS A DUAL VOLTAGE MOTOR and can
be run on either 110 or 220 volts. STANDARD WIRING IS 110
VOLTS. Your balancer features a dual voltage, (110/220volt)
dual phase (50 or 60 HZ.) power system. Simply position the
switch located at the back of the machine to the desired
voltage setting then install a required plug if necessary.
Consult a licensed electrician for electrical hook-up
according to local electrical codes. Operation with no
ground can damage electronics and will create a shock
hazard for the operator or bystanders. Damage caused by
improper electrical installation may void warranty. Most
electrical codes require "hard-wiring" when machine is
bolted to the floor. Consult a licensed electrician regarding
specific codes.

Floor and Space Requirements

The balancer must be located on a flat floor of solid
construction, preferably concrete. The balancer must sit
solidly on its three foot pads. If the balancer is not level,
does not sit solidly on its three foot pads, or is placed on an
unstable floor, the balancer will not function properly and will
produce inaccurate balance readings. The balancer is not
required to be bolted down, however it will not function
properly if left on the pallet.
Select a location for the balancer that provides a level,
solid floor, and adequate clearance around and above the
balancer.
Make sure the location selected has enough room
above and behind the unit so the hood can be raised
completely.
The location must also provide working room for
mounting and removing wheels.
